Running unifi-cam-proxy on Mikrotik RB5009 as a container

[qwertykolea]

Hello,
I tried to run it on Mikrotik RB5009 as a container, but I encountered the following errors:

Sep/05/2023 09:38:39 container,info,debug We renamed asyncio-mqtt to aiomqtt and released a version 1.0.0 in the process. This is the last release under the asyncio-mqtt name. You can find the new repository at https://github.com/sbtinstruments/aiomqtt

Anyone has experience how to run on it or a similar device?

@qwertykolea, Did you manage to solve it? I'm having the same problem.

Hi, yes I managed, but for each camera, you should run on a separate container. So, in my 5009 two dockers consume 600-700MB of RAM.
