+ ## Setting up the camera in homebridge-camera-ui
74
+
75
+ No manual configuration is needed inside `homebridge-camera-ui` — this
76
+ plugin creates the camera entry for you automatically the first time
77
+ Homebridge starts.
78
+
79
+ To check it worked:
80
+
81
+ 1. Open the Homebridge Config UI and go to the **Camera UI** plugin's
82
+ settings (or open the camera-ui web interface directly).
83
+ 2. Look for a camera named like the `name` you set above (default:
84
+ `מכ״ם גשם`).
85
+ 3. The camera should already have a live image. If it looks frozen or
86
+ blank, wait up to one `captureIntervalMs` interval (2 minutes by
87
+ default) for the first screenshot to be taken.
88
+
89
+ If the camera doesn't appear at all:
90
+
91
+ - Make sure `homebridge-camera-ui` is installed and has been started
92
+ at least once.
93
+ - Restart Homebridge. The camera entry is created by a `prestart`
94
+ hook that runs every time Homebridge starts, so a restart will
95
+ recreate it if it's missing (for example after a partial backup
96
+ restore).
97
+ - Check the Homebridge logs for errors from `WindyCamera` or
98
+ `inject-camera.py`.
99
+
100
+ Once the camera entry exists, it also appears automatically in the
101
+ Apple Home app (via `homebridge-camera-ui`'s own HomeKit bridge) — no
102
+ separate step is needed there either.
