Domoticz

Does anyone know the ImageUrl for the Foscam FI9803P V2 with firmware 1.9.1.12/2.54.1.37. It doesn't seem to work with the usual url. I've been searching anywhere but couldn't find anything about it.

Grtz,
Andres

Did you already find the 'ispyconnect' website? They mention a LOT of URLs for all different brands & types of cameras.

Yes, I already checked but they don't have one that works either.

Tried this one?

http://<your ip>:<port>/cgi-bin/CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=snapPicture2&usr=username&pwd=password&

Nope, doesn't work either. I already have a Foscam cam working, but this type is really annoying!

ImageURL:

cgi-bin/CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=snapPicture2&usr=username&pwd=password

Fill in exactly as described above, so no slashes or http.

I tried that one already, works well for my other Foscam Cam. Looks like since the upgrade from the cam I just can't acces it anymore. Synology is able to acces it and record events, just can't seem to get the imageUrl from it. Wish I could find a way to downgrade the firmware on the cam.

With an older foscam I had to change it, after updating the firmware, to:
snapshot.cgi?user=#USERNAME&pwd=#PASSWORD

it's working ok now.

So you got it working with the FI9803P firmware V2?

No it's not working, no matter what I try or do. So far only Synology knows how to get an image. Hoping someone will figure it out soon!

Anybody tried to contact foscam support?

I think you need to set the sub stream to MJPEG. See this topic: http://foscam.us/forum/how-to-fetch-sna ... t4328.html

Thanks for the tip, but I have tried all of those tricks. It must be something with the FI9803P V2 that just doesn't want me to get a stream.

Hi Guys

I tried to contact foscam, the URL is

http://IP : PORT/CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=snapPicture2&usr=USER&pwd=PASSWORD

but dosen't work for me, i have exactly the same issue, syno can get the jpeg, I can see it directly on chrome but no way to get it trought domoticz it's really weird, any idea how to fix it ?

cheers

Guys,

I'm coming back with some good news regarding the 9803P V2 cam, here is attached a patch to apply directly to the cam (via the cam interface / apply patch) to correct the snappicture2 CGI function.

I just applied it and now the cam works perfectly on Domoticz, I can see it using the cgi command line and I can embed the image into a webpage.

I hope it will work for you too.

Cheers

Hi All,

I'm new to this forum as in; I never posted anything. I have used this a lot for reference and always succeeded in setting up my domoticz. Until now..

I kind of have the same problem as described above. I recently bought the FI9803P V2 and now I'm trying to add it to Domoticz.

My Specs are:

Domoticz v2.2563 running on a RPi B+

Foscam FI9803P V2
Systeem Firmware Versie: 1.9.1.12
App Firmware Versie: 2.54.1.37_p1
Plug-In Versie: 3.0.0.9
Wireless connection to my network

I tried to add my cam in domoticz with the following settings:

Naam: cam1
IP Adress: http://192.168.1.50
Poort: 88
Username: [username]
Password: [password]
ImageURL: snapshot.cgi?user=[username]&pwd=[password]

But still I have no succes in adding my camera.

Did I do something wrong?

I hope to hear from you soon!

Kind Regard,

Robbert

read the post just above I put a patch to solve this problem

Hi Sebitop,

Thanks for your quick response. I already patched my cam and tried it again for good measure. Still no luck.
I tried 2 foscam usertypes (admin and visitor) and both have no result. I also tried different passwords to make sure nothing was interfering with each other.
I have tried to leave the username and password fields empty but occupied in the imageURL and vice versa, nothing happens..
I already followed the foscam instructions to set the sub stream to MJPEG.. (http://foscam.us/forum/how-to-fetch-sna ... t4328.html)
I tried cgi-bin/CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=snapPicture2&usr=username&pwd=password as imageURL

I'm afraid I have overlooked something, but have no clue where..
Any help will be much apreciated!

Kind Regards,

Robbert


--- EDIT ---
I made a simple html-doc with the code below and the image was shown in the browser.. So I'm even more confused right now..

first you must access the cam without domoticz, once it will work for sure you will have access to is on DZ

if I was you I will do the following :

- Reset the cam to factory mode
- control that the patch was correctly applied, if not reinstall it and control
- once the patch applied connect your cam on your network
- register one user with password
- try to access the cam via chrome or other using : http://[IP ADDRESS] : [PORT] /CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=snapPiture2&usr=[USER]&pwd=[PASSWORD]

normally it should work (that's what I've done to get mine work)

let me know

PS : Without doing all of this maybe try to correct the address you use with mine above I think you've done something wrong here

cheers

Having some problems with installing the patch. Keep getting a message that the install failed. I'm trying this wireless, what shouldn't be any problem.

Any tips?
