Homey Cameras

I see that only http streams are supported. Will there also be support for rtsp streams?

I have the same. It seems the Netatmo cams are not supported. There is also no possibility to send a Screenshot or anything :frowning:

Really poor :cry:

The function is very minimal, you need to manually refresh to get a new snapshot.
Would like a history function with all the snapshots or motion+snaphot (like HW)

Also i still hate the long press to “view” a device

have the newest app and updated Homey, but where do you find this new camera thing?

Turn experiments on (virtual devices)

When I put in my up camera by virtual IP, I get an error. Can’t change the port? It’s on :80? But none of my camera’s is On 80

It’s not an experiment anymore now I think?
You just have to add device - select Homey - IP Camera and add the url your camera uses for snapshots.

(my Foscams don’t appear to be supported however, since it doesn’t provide a clean and simple .jpg… :frowning: )

Some examples from Athom would be nice. Not too much to ask for I think.:smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

I had to change the experimental option to on. Otherwise there is no add IP cam option available.
I have 4 foscams (4 different models) they all work. Do you have the correct url?
However no cards visible in the flows?!

So, if I read the announcement right, this is an officially released function, not an experimental thingie. It also states I can pick a camera brand. The experimental option just asks for a URL, that’s it.

My guess is that these are 2 different functionalities, where we have yet to find the officially released one :slight_smile:

Ah, experimental was already on for me :slight_smile:

Wat types of Foscam are you using and what url?

I think I have to use this url:
http://IP:PORT/cgi-bin/CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=snapPicture&usr=xxxx&pwd=xxxx

That link works in a browser but gives me ‘content-type html/txt not allowed’ in the app :frowning:

FI9900P (http://usr:pwd@ip:port/cgi-bin/CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=snapPicture2&usr=xxxx&pwd=xxxx&)
FI9800P (http://usr:pwd@ip:port/cgi-bin/CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=snapPicture2&usr=xxxx&pwd=xxxx&)
FI9831P (http://usr:pwd@ip:port/cgi-bin/CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=snapPicture2&usr=xxxx&pwd=xxxx&)
C1 (http://usr:pwd@ip:port/cgi-bin/CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=snapPicture2&usr=xxxx&pwd=xxxx&)

Yeah, just got it working, I was using snapPicture, not snapPicture2…

Wyrd url’s
Usr:passw AND user=&passw=??

Works for me!
https://www.ispyconnect.com/man.aspx?n=foscam#

Also works when u delete the first part of the usr and passw.

You’re absolutely right!
