Does anyone know if it's possible to rewind the video feed, that the Homekit integration provides, from a Apple device?

There is a "Live" marker but I havn't found a way to rewind and I am unsure if it's a integration issue, issue with my video feed or if homekit itself perhaps doesn't support it.

You'd need HomeKit secure video

How did you do it? Last time I checked it wasn’t supported

https://github.com/koush/scrypted/wiki/Installation:-Home-Assistant-OS Installed it, got one feed working live streaming, that's it. Left it because of life you know. Upgrade it to version 0.8 the other day and rebooted the HoAss server and voila, there it was. Recordings of the all the movements recorded by the camera.

Thanks, I'll look into it!

I mean you can basically make everything you can image work through stateless switches. You would use homebridge to attach some script to the switch and start from there. That’s how I control some of my stuff too. AFAIK homebridge and HA can co-exist.

Hm, probably but sounds a bit over the top to be honest.

Yes sorry I didn’t read your whole question very well. It may be possible to use the integrated remote app in the iPhone to control that. What device plays this video feed?

No worries, I have been guilty myself of doing just that. It comes from the Unifi cameras and the unifi nvr.

I think I might be on track with Scrypted ( https://github.com/koush/scrypted/wiki/Installation:-Home-Assistant-OS), I just need time to config it all and adjust resolutions I think
