Ok. I recall someone mentioning the separate firmware with RTSP would also have support for Google Assistant. I wasn’t sure if changing from HLS to dash would affect it or not.
What a disaster hey? Time to toss this thing out and get something from a reputable brand who can deliver on their promised deliverables and deadlines

You bet I did. I’ve been following this thread for 5 months. Excuse after excuse after excuse. People here act like fanboys. This is a consumer product, which needs to be held to certain standards. They aren’t meeting their promises.
[MOD EDIT: Post edited to better conform to community guidelines.]
Not a fan boy. Not even a boy. You are way off with narrow assumptions. Whatever.
So in the meantime, could we add more people to Beta Tester Group for Google home/Assistant? 
We can try. DM me the identifier of your google home account. Because I don’t know how many people would DM me and for the moment I rather spend my time on getting Google Home Integration out for the camera and for another device, I can’t promise how fast I can actually do the invites.

Please elaborate the standards we are not withholding. I would like to know which software company or brand you are referring to.
I’ve been working with a lot of “reputable” companies, It is exactly the same at Wyze. Ask any of the PMs at Wyze and you will see that I’m stickler for the dates but when it’s not ready, it’s not ready.
The difference with Wyze and a lot of “reputable” software company is that we are trying to be more transparent and are more willing to communicate when something is not going as planned versus not saying anything about roadmap and then dropping a feature when no one is expecting it.
The other thing is, anyone versed in project management would tell you that out of timeline, quality and scope, you can control only 2 of the 3. The quality is not negotiable, it has to be high quality (no release with choppy audio), no scope change (has to work with Google Home on Hub and Chromecast) so we have only one dimension to adjust: time.

Hey, folks. We understand that it’s frustrating that the integration isn’t ready yet but, as WyzeFrederik said, we’re doing our best to be transparent about what’s going on and letting our community know the status. We have all been on the receiving end of missed deadlines with zero information provided and it isn’t fun. We wouldn’t want to do that to our community.
We’ll have the integration out as soon as we can but we need to make sure that it’s a quality feature. How disappointing would it be to have the integration finally release but be unusable? However, we understand that we have missed the originally promised deadline and that this may not work for the timelines that some people are operating on. We apologize for that and will understand if you do not have time to wait for the completed integration. In that case, we hope that you find a product that better fits your needs.

How can I dm you my email so I can be put in for beta testing
Your account may be too recent for you to send messages first. I can adjust your settings for that real quick. In a couple of minutes, click on his username and see if you see something like this pop up:
Do i need to do anything to get the new feed? because it’s not working right now…
For me I would like to have it just for the video, the sound is not important, I mean I already not enabling the sound on the wyze app itself, also it’s a known issue for these products that other brands did use, the sound is not working and the account link always get brocken with Google, I loved the wyze brand for it’s privacy, security, being in US and having SD card in it.
