Anyway I can stream my mobotix cameras to a media tile?

I’m trying to get my D-Links into ActionTiles and not sure which URL to use.  Shouldn’t it be one of these?  I’m not sure which URL to even use out of 1-4.

D-Link DCS-943L

I am able to view the camera feed in my ActionTiles panels on my MacBook and iPad but not on Fire HD tablet using Fully Kiosk.

I have tried a few different formats and this is what works:

IP:port/video.cgi?&user=XXXX&pwd=XXXXX

The error I get when editing the URL in My Media on the tablet is 'Enter valid URL to preview video stream.'

I tested it and was able to view the cam feed using the same URL in the Silk browser on the Fire tablet.

Also, it worked when I accessed if from My Shortcuts in AT (opened in a new screen not in a panel) however it required my username and password even though the URL contained that info.

Three other cams (Foscam FI8910W) work fine on all devices.

Any suggestions?

I have a Linksys WVC80N video camera.  I can view the video in a tile on my PC and iOS device.  But on an Android Nook with Chrome browser, the video feed does not work, most likely as it won't let me add a username and password. 

I can access the video via URL, if I could pass the username:password.  How do I use a URL like:  http://username:pwd@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/img/video.mjpeg ?  the ActionTiles media tile won't let me use this syntax.

Hi, I would like to know how I can stream Dahua IP camera in IOS?

I am looking for a recommendation. I am building a new house and want to add a real-time video stream of my front porch. Ideally, this would flow from an internal IP address to my Action Tiles app and not consume external bandwidth.

The house comes with a Ring Pro doorbell which would have been ideal since it is hardwired, but I know the proprietary nature prevents this.

I have a set of Alro Pro cameras but now realize this is not an option.

Can someone recommend a low-cost Wifi IP camera that can be hardwired for power, and gives me the ability to stream video real time to Action Tiles? Preferably that I can interface directly with the app via IP address and doesn't need to flow outside the LAN to interface.

I am thinking something like this:

I like the night vision capability

or http://bit.ly/2B961Sr

I like the PTZ capability but not sure if ActionTiles would support this?

Thanks for the guidance!

Hello Everyone,

First this is my first post as I'm new here and doing the trial for ActionTiles now, but I'll keep as I liked it.

I'm migrating all my lights from Wink to Smartthings only for this App "ActionTiles", so I want to say thanks for create this. Also I just got a spare Android Tablet that I'm looking the way to install in my wall to Replace the WinkRelay. I know that maybe not all my lights maybe will not me compatible buy I'll be doing my best. Thanks Again for ActionTiles.

Now to my question:

I have a Outdoor Light called HOMSCAM Outdoor Video Security Camera that I got couple weeks ago and work good in the app were I can see the camera live in the Phone and also I can download the Recorded Videos/Pictures, so I want to know if someone was able to add to as Tile or if someone think that maybe is possible to add as I'm really interested in add as Tile.

Thanks again for create this.

I'm adding a screenshot of my ActionTiles, remember, I just started couple days ago, and still pending add all my others lights

Regards,

Jose Bourdier

Hi there,

I've recently purchased an actiontiles license, and I've got my dashboards set up mostly the way I want them, but I'd really like to get my 3 camera feeds on my dashboards.  My cameras are wired with coax cable (wired them up when the house was under construction) and currently hook into a Nuvico Apex NVR.  I know this won't work because to view the cameras in a browser you have to log in to the nuvico applet thing...it doesn't accept credentials in a web address.

What I want to know is, is there some NVR I can purchase that will take my wired coax camera feeds and spit them out onto the interwebs in an mjpeg format that actiontiles can handle?  That would be the ideal solution for me...just replace my NVR with something that will work.

If that doesn't work, I see there's some talk about Blue Iris and how if you turn off security within your network you can see the cameras, so that might be a viable solution, but then I'm picking up a windows computer to use.

Otherwise I have to get new cameras?  Searching around the forums here, a lot of the info is old and there aren't really any clear answers that I can find.  I'd love some insight if anyone has a line on an NVR that would work for me.

By the way, I'm running actiontiles in Fully on some 7" kindle fires.

I have multiple arlo wireless cameras set up and I’d like to see an updated snapshot every 10-15min on my AT interface...

Because I use Android phones running IP Webcam as security cameras, I can connect to them remotely with TeamViewer to see what's going on with each device.

SmartTiles would show each camera's video feed, and I could see on the phone that IP Webcam's "Video connections" would go from 0 to 1. When I switched SmartTiles dashboards, IP Webcam would reflect that "Video connections" went back to 0. All good.

With ActionTiles, if I open the panel with my video feeds, each IP Webcam (there are 4) will go from 0 to 1. All good.

If I click on one of the video feeds, it opens it up in a larger view. The IP Webcam now says "Video connections" is 2. Not a great use of bandwidth, but I can live with it.

When I close the larger view, IP Webcam does not decrement the video connections back to 1. In fact, each time I open a camera in larger view, it creates a new IP Webcam stream, but the stream never goes away. After a few days I can end up with 5 or 6 streams, multiplied by 4 cameras, and the network gets laggy.

If I close the ActionTiles browser tab, then the "Video connections" finally decrement back to 0, so something in ActionTiles is keeping old video streams alive.

Can you please help?

So I'm looking to buy a camera, but I have a couple requirements:

A)  Must have local storage (I don't want to mess with any clouds, Blue Iris, or NVRs)
B)  Must work with Smartthings, more specifically I just want be able to have it record to local storage when a contact sensor is opened.

C) Must be viewable from Action Tiles.  I would prefer a live view directly from action tiles.  (AT will be running on an Android in the same LAN as the camera).

Most of the cameras on the other threads either do one or two, or don't have enough information for me to tell if they do all three.  I would love to hear from the community regarding what you guys use that would satisfy the above requirements.

I have a video stream that stops updating after a while.. manual page refresh fixes.. using on Fully Kiosk on an Android Nexus 7 gen one tablet.. Video feed stops, and continues. A manual refresh fixes. Same Symptoms in Chrome on my mac. Any ideas on what might cause the feed to stop refreshing??

I have 4 of these but would really like to have the live feed on my display.  

Hi,

Is it possible to specify logins and passwords for the Media streams? All my Cams are protected.

Thanks in advance for your support

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:

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?

Using same one. I wish the same about cameras however looks like my brands are not willing to play nice right now with AT.

Is it possible to store the name/password for each media tile so i don't have to enter them every time (for every webcam) when i load the page?

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
