You can disable automatic updates and use an automation to call homeassistant.update_entity at whatever interval you want

I don't see an option to disable those updates in the generic camera documentation

#

Would i need to set "Limit refetch to URL change"?

Like all UI configured integrations that's handled in the UI

I must be missing something because i'm not seeing any options to disable updates for that integration anywhere

#

Generic Camera is Local Push, so would it even have an option to change automatic rates?

lucid hazel

I'd expected an option to disable polling for updates (since it's really only a "push" for a stream)... interesting that it doesn't have that

#

You may find that it works if you set Limit refetch to URL change and then manually update it

Yeah. the only option that seems related is "Limit refetch to URL change". I could probably set that then template the URL every 5 minutes
