@Mike1233 to be honest. I don’t know. Didn’t build the app and never used it. Only doing maintenance 😅

It looks like when I use the “Snapshot” tag in multiple cards in a flow, the app takes a new snapshot for each individual card. Is there any way to take a snapshot once and keep that same image for use in other cards/flows?

Mmmm… I guess that’s convenient when you just need a snapshot once, but not so much when that same snapshot has to be used in multiple cards. The next card creates a new snapshot, taking additional time, so it may not even capture the event any more. I’m also confused why the “Create snapshot” card even exists then?

Anyway, not a big deal but I was just wondering if I missed a solution or workaround. 🙂

@Jorg_Gahrmann report looks good, so looks like the snapshot functionality is not properly working on your synology.

please try to debug in your surveillance center. Not much I can do

@martijnpoppen

The app is working just fine for me, Thnx, only one option I’d like :  
Is it possible to send a recorded video (recorded via flow surveillance station start - stop recording) by email ?

Kind regards, DjKolk.

@Dj_Kolk  
Hmm not sure, that would require your homey to be a broker and download the video form the surveillance station. can be quite memory heavy.

I have to dive into that if that’s possible at all.

I can’t add my Surveillance Station to homey : the connexion page runs forever without any error message.

I tried using several addresses :

- DNS address on HTTTPS (which is open though my router on port 443)
- LAN IP address on HTTPS
- LAN IP address on HTTP

I used an account which has viewer access on all objects in surveillance Station.

I could use this account with the DNS address on DS CAM app on first try.

Am I missing something here ?

Thanks in advance for your help

My configuration:

- Homey Pro 2023
- Surveillance station 9.1.4.-10998 running on Synology DSM 7.2.1-69057 Update 3
- IOS homey app
- 2 PTZ cameras

Thanks, I have been able to connect my Surveillance Station, and then to addd my 2 cameras !

One question though : when I long-click on one of the camera within homey app, it displays the camera as a fixed image.  
=\> Can I configure it to get a live stream instead ?

Regards,

Ronan

Hello Martijn,  
I am trying to connect my surveillance station to the app, but whatever I do I am getting a timeout.

I tried [xxx.synology.me](http://xxx.synology.me) ddns, local ip adres 192.168.2.xx, static IP adres of the router, port 554, 443, 5000, 5001 and my synology login account, but without succes.

Am I missing something? Do jou know what could be de cause and what can check?

Thanks.
