[Feature Request] - 3rd party network camera support

[ondrovic]

Let's be honest the camera's in some of the new printers are absolute garbage, yes the work for a quick monitor but they are not build for monitoring.

I purpose allowing support for 3rd party cameras that have rstp support, this would allow the end user (which lets be honest we are already doing) to have RSTP feeds to be viewed directly in the handy app

We would need the at bare minimum the following somewhere in a settings:

• toggle that says use 3rd party camera

  • this would when enabled not use the stock camera

• place to put in the local ip address of the camera

• port of the camera

• authentication settings

  • none
  • username / password

  There is already a ticket in BambuStudio
  RTSP Feed for printer cameras  BambuStudio#1536

While this is a great idea, implementing this will probably not be as easy as some people think. Looking at how many headaches random RTSP cameras cause in Frigate & Scrypted communities, it seems like the feeds for cameras are often very non-standard. Even the Bambu own X1 camera doesn't seem to follow proper RTSP protocol and send malformed SDP...
