Was hoping to discuss camera support and best practices… I’m running on an Ipad Pro, latest IOS and latest HomeWave version…
I attempted to add some camera’s and I’m sure I must be doing something incorrect.
[1] Added 4 cameras, all of which are direct to my Blue Iris server, not openLuup or an MCV product.
Using the add camera, each camera is configured as follows.
- ip:port
- mjpg/[camera name]/video.mjpg
- no username
- no password
[2] Cameras worked briefly then stopped refreshing…
[3] If I long press the image, it appears to refresh and then stops again after a few seconds.
[4] Same issue on 2nd and 3rd gen iPads.
Out of curiosity, I added a web tile using http://ip:port/mjpg/cameraName/video.mjpg and it worked perfectly except it’s a small frame of a much larger image… Same works perfectly within a browser.

Is this an issue with perhaps my BI server ? A configuration issue on my part ? Certainly I’m not tasking the system as I’d expect the clickable image to only refresh as often as HomeWave refreshes. Of course I’d expect it to refresh at a much faster rate when the image is clicked and expanded for view.
Thoughts, advice from others… Camera’s are Hikvision and Dahua (PTZ).
Much appreciated…
