esp_event_loop seems not to be defined in <esp_event.h>.

Do you use IDF5.0?

Hi AchimPieters, I'm using: git clone -b v3.2 --recursive https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf.git; Following you blog tutorial https://www.studiopieters.nl/esp32-homekit-camera/

/esp32/esp32-homekit-camera-maxim/esp32-homekit-camera/main/app_main.c: In function 'wifi_init': /esp32/esp32-homekit-camera-maxim/esp32-homekit-camera/main/app_main.c:49:21: error: implicit declaration of function 'esp_event_loop_init' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration] ESP_ERROR_CHECK(esp_event_loop_init(event_handler, NULL)); ^ /esp32/esp-idf/components/esp32/include/esp_err.h:117:31: note: in definition of macro 'ESP_ERROR_CHECK' esp_err_t __err_rc = (x); \ ^ cc1: some warnings being treated as errors make[1]: *** [app_main.o] Error 1 make: *** [component-main-build] Error 2

Should I use IDF 5.0 or shouldn't I?

I'm little desperate trying to make it compile properly.

Ok I found in this git files changes just adding #include <esp_event_loop.h> after #include <esp_event.h> on file ./main/app_main.c solved the problem and allowed me to compile and flash it correctly FINALLY!!!

Now I'm fighting with no stream, just snapshot every 10 seconds.
