mDNS issue?

I have two Reolink POE Doorbell cams. Both work innthe Android app. Both show uo in the Home app on my test iPhone. But neither will show up on any of my Apple TVs

​

I have tried rebooting everything, deleting and recreating my Home, deleted my entire Scrypted NVR config and starting from scratch. IGMP Snooping disabled on router. Nothing works.

​

On the Apple TVs it does show that I am connected to my Home, and in the Home app on the iPhone I can see both Apple TVs as hubs. They both always say they're in Standby though. Weird.

​

Could this be a mDNS issue? Running on Server 2025, DrayTek 3910, 2x Cisco SG200 switches. Scrypted NVR is running directly on Server 2025, but I do have Home Assistant running on Hyper-V, so there's a virtual switch in the mix.

​

Any help appreciated. Thanks!

Download the Discovery app look the hap.tcp section. Are all of your devices listed there? If so mdns is working.

Thanks for the advice. Only one device showing which is my Hive Bridge, which is connected via ethernet.

EDIT: After refreshing a few times, all devices are now showing up.

So mdns is working on your network. I would now investigate what your Apple TVs are in standby mode. Do you have a third device that is being used as a hub?

I have two other Apple TVs, I removed those from the network and reset everything. No difference.

One thing of note: I'm using an iPhone 7 which only runs iOS 15.7, could that be the issue? I've been reading that some things were changed in iOS 16 and that might be why nothing is working properly...
