C220 FW V.1.4.4 auth issue

[Semir333]

Description

After my two C220 camera update finished (V 1.4.4 Build 260515 Rel.24570n), the plugin can't auth anymore with Tapo Account. Always said the TP-Link account password is wrong, but not. This issue only appeared after FW update, before it's working.

Reproduction Steps

1. Update C220 camera to the new FW
2. After update, and the camera restart, HA shows up Authentication issue
3. Try to reautentication via plugin.
4. Enter camera feed account credentials
5. Enter account credentials

Expected behavior

Fix reauthentication

If applicable, add error logs.

Have you followed the first point in FAQ ?

I can confirm that toggling the "Third-party Compatibility" switch off, then on worked for me, but it will not accept the Camera Account credentials for "Live Feeds".
I tried deleting and recreating the camera account, using the same and different usernames and passwords; no dice.
