Reolink Camera?

kevinnichols 7 years ago in Media Tiles / Video Camera Feeds updated by Adolf 4 years ago 38

Is the Reolink camera supported by Action Tiles?


I can see from their support that a JPEG image from the camera does have a URL address....so I'm assuming the answer is yes?

Thanks,

I bought 2 Reolink cameras last week and tested one. They do work with Action Tiles and all is well.  I haven't decided whether to connect them to Smartthings, because Reolink's software is pretty good about motion detection and alerts.


Thanks,


Kevin

Actiontiles Icons are Missing on Fire 10, not Fire 8

markjn1 4 years ago in Browsers Tablets Phones / Amazon Fire updated 4 years ago 2

This only happens on my Fire 10 7th gen. It does not happen on my Fire 8, same browser, same settings. Fully Kiosk Support just blanket-blames Android. I do have the proper Fire-only app for Fully Kiosk Browser. Everything is on it's latest version. I've even done a full reinstall of the table.

Pulling to refresh the page restores the icons.

This worked fine for a year when first set up, yet the icons stopped appearing 6 months or so ago. Basically the story of all home automation.

Newbie help please

JosephNY 4 years ago in Panels (dashboards) updated 4 years ago 3


Thank you all in advance for the help!

I setup a panel and would like to include on each tile the date/time of the last reading.

That way, I can be confident that the readings are current.

Unless there's a better way to achieve such confidence?

Here's my panel:

Presence Sensor with New SmartThings App

WillPierson 4 years ago in Things & Capabilities updated 4 years ago 2

Hi - I've seen some posts on how to create a tile for presence using the classic SmartThings app. How do I create presence tile using the new SmartThings app? It doesn't look like ST exposes this as a device, so what do I add?

Cameras not showing picture in Chrome but works well in Opera and Firefox

Str2der 4 years ago in Media Tiles / Video Camera Feeds updated by Alex (ActionTiles) (Co-Founder) 4 years ago 1

I have been using Chrome on my Android Lenovo tablets at home to see my security cameras. I have opened one tab for each camera to login and then when looking at the Actiontiles tab, everything has been working well until about a month ago. First all the camera images died on one tablet. I facory reset that one and then it worked for a couple of days.

Then another one experienced the same issue and factory resets didn't help anymore.

Tried Opera today and everything works as it should.

Any idea how to get it working in Chrome?

Netatmo Camera on media tiles???

thebossverstappen 7 years ago in Media Tiles / Video Camera Feeds updated by Diegocampy 4 years ago 13

Hi Guys, first post and a complete newbie, so apologies if this is a silly question....


I am trying to get my Netatmo Welcome to display on a media tile.... As I say I am a complete novice so am not entirely sure this is possible. I have followed the steps detailed in the link below assuming it will work in a similar fashion with Action Tiles, firstly my question is am I barking up the wrong tree... As I say my knowledge is limited so apologies if I am being naive..


https://www.domoticz.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=15124


Secondly if by some miracle I am on the right track, why would I get a blank tile with "loading" in it? I have tried both a live stream and snapshot options but both return the same.


Any help or advice would be really appreciated

iFrame shortcut generates blank page

bigpal 4 years ago in Shortcut Tiles updated 4 years ago 3

I've customized the weatherwidgetio and I'm hosting it on my own website, that way only I can change it and it will work indefinitely (no one to blame but me). It works fine on its own as a shortcut link, but when I use it in an iframe shortcut, the HTML gets screwed up. You can see it builds the iframe and points to the source, then dumps what should be the frame HTML under #document, but it's dumping a blank page and I can't figure out why. I removed beginning brackets so you can see it here.

Anyone run into this?


iframe type="text/html" frameborder="0" layout-fill="" class="layout-fill" src="http://mywebsite/Weather.html">/iframe>

#document

html>head>/head>body>/body>/html>

Answer

Glenn,

Make sure to check device list #11.

How to set tile header text based on status?

Jim H 4 years ago in Colors Icons Fonts Themes updated by Alex (ActionTiles) (Co-Founder) 4 years ago 1

In the article "How to use new SmartThings Home Monitor with ActionTiles", it shows custom header text that appears to change based on the status of the alarm. Arm and Armed, for example. Is this really possible?

Randomly losing video streams

JayUK 4 years ago in Panels (dashboards) / Special Tiles updated by Alex (ActionTiles) (Co-Founder) 4 years ago 1

Hi all,


It's probably just me (it usually is), but it seems that recently I am randomly losing my video feeds to my media tiles more often.


My setup is:


Fire HD8

LineageOS 16

Fully Kiosk (licensed)

4 media tiles showing streams from Blue Iris

I have FKB configured to use a screensaver (black screen) and automatically turn back on when motion is detected.

The videos were quite stable, but recently I am getting grey tiles with different streams.

A reload of the AT panel/screen solves it.


Has anyone else noticed more recent issue with video streams?

Can anyone suggest a solution (I wanted to avoid the static image route and stick with live video)

Thanks,

J.

Custom CSS

Christian Persson 4 years ago updated 4 years ago 7

Looking at the forum there was a few years ago discussions on Custom CSS support, has there been any progress to this or any form of roadmap that plans on implementing this?

Or has there been any "unsupported" way of dealing with it from the community even?

Regards,

Christian

Stock Ticker Tile

Corey 7 years ago in Things & Capabilities / RSS & Feeds updated by Leo Hart 4 years ago 14

While I realize that this may veer slightly off of the smart home control aspect of Action Tiles, I was wondering if it would be possible to create a stock ticker tile to compliment your other Clock, Weather, Weather Forecast, Calendar, and RSS News Feed tiles?  I use my tablets for both smart home control as well as a "one stop shop" for information and it would be nice to have a tile where you could display the current prices of certain stocks, funds, etc., and have the tile scroll through them (realizing that it would/could not be real time information).

I assume this would be low priority compared to all the other activities you have going on, but am curious whether there are others who are interested in a stock ticker tile as well.  Thanks.

Panel tile that also reflects smartthings status

Leo Hart 4 years ago in Things & Capabilities 0

It would be great if we could create a panel tile that could also be hooked up to a smartthings device for displaying status.  Example use case would be having a single tile for "Basement".  The tile could reflect the status of the lights and controls in the basement and when clicked go to a panel with detailed controls for that room.  


Right now I need to create a tile for the basement smartthings status and a tile to link to the basement panel.  Having both in one tile would allow me to free up space for other uses and I'm guessing it's a common use case.

Thanks!

I live in Michigan and have Consumers Energy for my electrical provider. They have a pretty great graph that shows usage and cost by day. I would love to get this graph added to my tiles but can not figure a way of doing this.  Anyone have any ideas?

Set Tile active state or color based on thresholds of numeric value or other Attributes

Shawn 8 years ago in Colors Icons Fonts Themes updated by Jim H 4 years ago 27 4 duplicates

Any consideration in the future to illuminating the tile(s) based on real time or cumulative energy would be terrific. For example, I use the Aeon Energy Monitor for my well pump system to know when the below ground pump is running or not. 


When it is not running, the real time energy is 0 watts. When it is running it is 2540 watts.


If the respective panel had a parameter to set that would illuminate the panel when the real time energy is greater than 2000w, then I would know at a glance the pump is running. I think others may find usefulness in having the panel(s) illuminate for various reasons.



AT has been rock solid here, thanks for an amazing product!
