Media Tile Stream has stopped working

needlerp 7 years ago in Media Tiles / Video Camera Feeds updated by Terry (ActionTiles) (Co-Founder) 7 years ago 3

I've been very successfully viewing a media stream of my Synology Surveillance Station for the last month or so, but it's suddenly stopped working in Action Tiles - the preview no longer displays the stream either. I know the URL is correct as a can copy and paste it into safari and it streams straight away.


Anybody any ideas what might have changed? The stream is in the following format:

https://[URL]:5001/webapi/SurveillanceStation/videoStreaming.cgi?api=SYNO.SurveillanceStation.VideoStream&method=Stream&version=1&_sid=[sid]&cameraId=3&format=mjpeg

Thanks. Looks as though the SSL certificate on my server has expired, so it's giving an error - console pointed it out for me!

Can we have a new tile which creates html5 video tag and we provide its source

Kins 7 years ago in Media Tiles updated by Terry (ActionTiles) (Co-Founder) 7 years ago 1

html5 has video and audio tag where we provide source and dimension (width and height) it displays native player. Is there a way to add custom tile to do that? Custom html5 tags is even better.

Media Tile not refreshed on initial page load

needlerp 7 years ago in Media Tiles / Images updated by Terry (ActionTiles) (Co-Founder) 7 years ago 8 1 duplicate

I've got a couple of media tiles (static image with 10s refresh time). I've noticed that when I first load up the panel the initial image is one from several days ago - it takes until the first refresh (i.e. 10 seconds) to load the correct image. Also, every so often on a refresh cycle it reverts back to the 'old' image for one cycle, before properly refreshing again.

Just a thought: RTSP to RTMP and add Media file to play youtube live?

Owais 7 years ago in Media Tiles / Video Camera Feeds updated by Terry (ActionTiles) (Co-Founder) 7 years ago 1

Last night I setup my first IP camera Foscam I9800P in my backyard and was planning to get additional 2. I was pretty happy to watch the video from the ST app but it kind of saddened me that Action Tiles does not support video footage from its panel. (Correct me if I am wrong). 


Its Monday and I felt like being unproductive at work and I started thinking on how to integrate my video feed to action tiles and it clicked what if I connect a YouTube live link to action tiles will that work?


I am yet to go back home and do the R&D. Just thought of asking folks in the community if they have tried this out or think it will work?

Media Tile with GIF image not refreshing or updating

bne 7 years ago in Media Tiles / Images updated by Terry (ActionTiles) (Co-Founder) 7 years ago 47 1 duplicate

I have a media tile for national radar and it doesn't seem to update on its own. If I refresh the browser it updates but not otherwise. The one on the left is SmartTiles and the right is ActionTiles, screenshot taken side by side. I have tried adjusting the refresh rate without any luck.

Answer

OK doke...


Thanks everyone for your patience with this problem, your helpful symptom and diagnostic details, and your validations / verification of the fix we implemented in ActionTiles v6.2.4.


While there's a chance there are still some remaining or new glitches with similar symptoms to this Topic; we're going to close this one off and start with a clean slate.


Happy ActionTiling!

Amcrest Camera

Ginny 7 years ago in Media Tiles / Video Camera Feeds updated by Terry (ActionTiles) (Co-Founder) 7 years ago 2

I would really like to get this to work, but having zero luck. I have tried about 20 different versions of differnt URL's. I am sure it is me,..... that I am replacing the information incorrectly. If there is someone who has this camera, and it is working with ActionTiles, can you tell me what URL you are using... changing of course your private information, but making it very clear to stupid me what I put in of my private into. Like if it wants user name and password... is that my network info, my router info, the camera info? IP address, is that the master ip address of my router, or the camera IP? Anyway I can verify I have the correct IP? I think I do... but I am doing something wrong... Thanks Ginny

How Can I View a Zmodo Camera on my Android Tablet

Den 7 years ago in Media Tiles updated by Terry (ActionTiles) (Co-Founder) 7 years ago 8

I tried the Media Tiles an I cannot view the video stream.

Answer

If you can't view the video stream in plain Chrome, it definitely won't work in ActionTiles.


Someday we may be able to offer format conversion or plug-in support, but that's a long ways off I think.


In the meantime, there is quite a range of cameras that stream simple and compatible MJPEG (or at least JPG still images which can be refreshed automatically by the Media Tile as frequently as every 5 seconds).
