Describe the bug

I wanted to report that the Amcrest AD410 video doorbell appears to be supported with this integration. Some brief notes in case anyone else has this:

• Pressing the doorbell appears to fire the alarm_local binary sensor - e.g. binary_sensor.front_doorbell_alarm_local here.
• The camera shows up in Home Assistant and works fine, including both SD/HD streams and sound.
• I haven’t figured out how to get the “human detection” working yet; binary_sensor.front_doorbell_smart_motion_human doesn’t appear to fire, but I’ll play with it a bit more.

I’m happy to do any debugging/etc. if any of the maintainers want - but I figured I’d start with the fact that it works 🎉 Thanks to everyone that’s contributed!

Amcrest adjusts the Dahua firmware to suit their SmartHome app quite a bit. Although the AD410 implements the Dahua SmartPlan AI for human detection, they did this strictly with Cross Region Detection and not the Smart Motion Human method. There really isn’t any need for SMH as you can rely on the CrossRegionDetection event for very reliable human detection.

For Home Assistant, here’s all you need for the event trigger:

  trigger: 
  - platform: event
    event_type:  dahua_event_received
    id: Human Motion
    event_data:
      event: CrossRegionDetection
      payload:
        action: Start
        data:
          ObjectType: Human

The other possible ObjectType for Dahua cameras is “Vehicle”, but the AD410 didn’t implement it. Checking for ObjectType is currently unnecessary since it will always be Human for now.

Thanks @GaryOkie. I followed your basic approach, but my binary template sensor configuration ended up being slightly different (see below). Perhaps yours is based on amcrest integration rather than dahua one?)

template:
  - trigger:
    - platform: event
      event_type: dahua_event_received
      id: start
      event_data:
        Code: CrossRegionDetection
        Action: Start
    - platform: event
      event_type: dahua_event_received
      id: stop
      event_data:
        Code: CrossRegionDetection
        Action: Stop
    binary_sensor:
    - name:  Doorbell Human Motion Detected
      state: >-
        {{ 'on' if trigger.id == 'start' else 'off' }}
