Access live feed

[trullock]

Is it possible to get the details (url?) of the live feed from the camera?

Hi @trullock, I was not able to find it in the data received in the API.
It requires more investigation.

Me neither. I've profiled the app's http traffic and there's nothing to be seen, so it needs profiling on a TCP or UDP level

I know this is an old thread, but I did profile my 3 cameras if anyone is still interested.

Of note, the camera uses a plain unencrypted rtsp stream locally. The cameras use basic MAC filters to firewall it off. Copy the MAC of the parent unit to spoof it on the computer, and rtsp locally works.
rtsp://192.168.2.5:554/live/ch00_0

the camera firmware appears to save the MAC of the parent unit during setup. It appears to only capture one, either the parent unit or the parent unit extender. I haven’t found a URL based way to disable the MAC filter, but I’m sure it has to exist.

Cloud streams are a lot easier, and what the iOS/android apps use all the time. locally the apps use streaming over TLS. I could upload what URL’s I’ve captured via wire shark in another thread, if anyone is interested.

I'd value you posting any and everything here or anywhere else 👍

What did you do to profile your cameras to learn this?

this was just what I watched on Wireshark during the setup process between parent unit and baby monitor. I don’t have a perimeter safe security camera to know if it’s the same.

thanks @joer293 I'll have a play soon and see what I can learn.
