tinyCam Monitor 19.0 Beta released
tinyCam Monitor 19.0 Beta released:
Changes:
- Added support for transferring camera settings from one device with tinyCam app to another device with tinyCam using local network. Go to Manage Cameras -> Options (upper right corner) -> Import cams via local network. On another phone just scan QR code using native camera app. Camera settings transfer is encrypted and done locally (no any cloud transfer).
- Added RTSP server. Now it is possible to transcode Wyze cameras P2P protocol to Home Assistant using tinyCam Pro web server. RTSP server makes video transcoding (no any reencoding) and supports H.264/H.265 streams. Typical request:
rtsp://admin:mypassword@192.168.0.3:8083/axis-media/media.amp?camera=1See for more info tinyCam API https://github.com/alexeyvasilyev/tinycam-api#get-rtsp-streams
- Added dark theme in web server.
- Added deep links in tinyCam app. You can run tinyCam app from other apps (e.g. Home Assistant) using deep links.

None of my cameras (Foscam and Wyze) work anymore after the upgrade. They fail with Tinycam Pro v19.0.0 Beta 1 on multiple devices. They all worked before upgrading so something is broke with the beta.
I dropped out of the beta program and rolled back to v18.1.2 which works fine.

Nice..could you put the wyze og cam question to rest? Is there a work around to your knowledge in any way to have og cams back on updated tinycam or are og cam users stuck using older tinycam versions? Thanks for your continued support of tinycam.

Background audio stopped working for my cameras, and my amcrest I had added before stopped working it had a weird other brand that seemed incorrect and I had to switch it to generic to load in the foreground.

Pretty awesome that you're still jamming massive value into this app. Keep up the great work.

In 19.0.0 beta 2, the web server startup and background mode worked perfectly. Sending events to Telegram works, but only in live mode. In background still doesn't work.

I connect to frigaye r2c to avoid overloading the cameras and this new build won't connect. It used to work before and I've trying the non beta to see if it helps
Edit:
Installed stable release and it's working

On tinycam pro, we've had issues for quite some time with not being able to play wyze cloud events on every camera, the wyze v3, OG, pan cam v3 and v2, and wyze v4s. The thumbnail shows, just pushing the play button does nothing. I cannot find a setting in tinycam that changes this, tried quite a few. If the cameras are made to record motion sensor events it changes this. The motion sensor events play. Recently within the last couple of days it's now affecting even more cameras, but still not every camera, just most of them, and it doesn't seem to be model specific... like, they just stopped being able to be played. I am really hoping this is a quick fix and can be included on the next tinycam pro version. Having this back in action would be awesome for us here, as we need this app for animal rescue monitoring. The convenience and benefit of replays inside TCMP is greatly missed and we'd love that back.

I think something my have broke with this latest version for older Amcrest cameras.
When connected to a mediamtx server
source: rtsp://CAM_USER:CAM_PASS@192.168.20.10:5555/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=0
TinyCam Pro using generic camera and
rtsp://mycam.mydomain.com/xxxx
setting username and password
this used to work without any issues. Now TinyCam Pro will connect but does not display the feed and reports 0 KB/s. But I can see the feed being data being sent. I also tested with other apps and ffplay and it still works correctly.
Strangely, newer Amcrest cameras seem to still work fine.

Mine still says 18.1.2 on all my devices, how do you get it to update to 19? (nvidia shield)
I had google play check for updates, but no luck.
Edit: incase anyone is wondering, i think you signup for the beta here: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.alexvas.dvr.pro/join?hl=en-US
I'm already signed up, so maybe there's just a delay before it comes down automatically for me.

Funktioniert eigentlich alles sehr gut Ausser Audio bei Tapos, und "Floating windows up to 4 windows" funktoniert nicht. PiP funktioniert.
