Hi

Im trying to get my cameras into Domoticz.
(Latest version running on RPI4)

When I add the camera to "camera settings" and click test its working fine but after saving and trying to show the stream its not working any more.

Pleas, do any one have some clues?

Maybe you can give some more information like Domoticz version, camera brand and type, used link to show camera.

Hi

OK, sorry, I did not see the use of that.

Im running a RPI4 with Domoticz version 4.10717

It's a unknown camera brand.

The url Im using is http://IP.adress/cgi-bin/hi3510/snap.cg ... eam&-chn=2

The Url works fine in browser and theres no problem in Editcamera when I click test.
But when I save the camera settings and the click the camera it's not working....

Regards
Magnus

Hi everyone.
I'm getting the same problem.
I'm using TinyCam to generate the jpeg url, since my dvr just can give me the rtsp protocol only.

The cam image is appering on test connection, but only there.

Domoticz version: 4.10717 running on Windows 10 (I'm going to buy a Pi next month)

I think I found the reason.

I added another cam from my company, and it works.

The difference (and probably the problem) are, in my house I used a URL "mjpg/video.cgi", and in my office I used a url with "snapshot.cgi" and worked.

So now, I need to check out how to get a "snapshot" url from TinyCam
