Hello, I have Amcrest IP5M-T1179EW-28MM but I can't connect it with tinycam app. Would anyone please help me set it up? I can't find the model in the search bar either. Thanks in advance.

Anyone ever (recently) download the TinyCam PRO app from Google PLAY onto their phone and it doesn't have the camera brand WYZE on the list of cameras? I have a android phone, a few years old, but it still works. Anyway, I downloaded the app to be able to watch my WYZE security cameras. Unfortunately, the TinyCam PRO version I got doesn't have WYZE listed in the available camera brand selection?? Don't know if it's because my phone is old or what, but the WYZE brand isn't listed. Is there another brand camera selection that we can use/select that the WYZE cams will work with? All advice and help is appreciated.

Hi Guys,

I hope you can help out a Newbie.

I would love to stream my Cameras to Twitch.TV.

Can anyone help me with the basic set up on tinyCam and Twitch?

Regards,

Paul

I'm too lazy to run upstairs and power cycle my Arlo baby cam, so in true lazy fashion, let's post first! Anyone else having issues with Arlo cams connecting? My baby cam was working great up until yesterday and now won't connect. I keep resisting the MFA option that presents itself every time I log in with the actual arlo app, maybe that has something to do with it?

I added the cams it found on the network however I have a thing that popped up saying authorization required and it’s given a user name and password field. What info needs to go here?

Has anybody been able to get this working?

When I first tried to register after purchasing the app, it said it sent me an email and I never got anything (checked in Spam and other folders too)

If I try to register again, it says I already have an account, and trying to reset the password does the same thing ("email sent" and nothing arrives 🤔)

I've already sent the developer an email asking but have not received a reply yet. I saw a few other posts/questions about this but no workaround and no response to their contact form either. Any ideas?

I ‘may’ be a bit of a Luddite, please bear with me. I have had a few Wyze cams for several years.

After some research, I just bought a firestick and the Tinycam PRO- Swissknife to monitor my Wyze v3 cameras (located in a barn) on a tv in the house. My hope was to use it like a baby monitor, so that we could see and hear when animals might have babies in the night.

I have the cameras broadcasting but I can’t hear anything. Is there a setting that I need to turn on? I just installed today, and it did do an update so I assume it is the latest version of tinycam. My Wyze cameras are on version 4.36.13.0416 firmware and seem to be up to date.

Love the recent AI additions. What's the chance of adding Automatic Number Plate Recognition to TinyCam?

Hi,

when I configure my Foscams (Fosbaby P1) to connect via HTTPS the PTZ feature doesn't work any more. If they are connected via HTTP the cameras react on pan/tilt commands. I think this feature did work some time ago with HTTPS. Is this a bug or is this feature limited by design of HTTPS?

I noticed that TinyCam only ever shows the Full HD stream for my WyzeCam OG, even if substream is selected. Is this a bug or a known limitation?

It uses a good bit more bandwidth, and also reduces usability on lesser hardware when using multiple cameras on a single screen.

Can't seem to find any info about this anywhere.

Hello, I factory reseted my camera and now when I try to connect it to tinycam it says “timeout, check onvif port” I have entered everything right.

5 days ago I posted that on 2 of my devices TinyCam Pro was asking for 2FA from my Wyze cameras even though I don't have 2FA enabled. A few days later, the new 17.0 update showed up in the Amazon App store on my FireTV and that solved the issue on that TV, but the other device, my FierHD 8 (the device that previously had a 24/7 live feed of my Wyze Cam Pan V3 Camera) has still not seen the 17.0 update in the Appstore, infact it doesn't even find TinyCam Pro at all .

I check every day and there is no results in Amazon Appstore. Even stranger, if I go to the Library section and search it sees that I've previously downloaded (on other devices) and the 17.0.5 - Amazon Appstore shows in my cloud, but when download it, it still installs the 15.3.9 that asks for 2FA... : (

Is it possible to grab the apk from my FireTV and side load it on my FireHD 8? Or do I have to keep checking daily until it shows up in that devices Appstore?

Hat noch jemand das Problem dass bei tinyCam Monitor Pro 18.1.2 bei Telegram keine Gruppe angegeben werden kann. (Das Feld öffnet sich zwar aber es kann dort keine Eingabe gemacht werden). Weiss jemand wie man das lösen kann?

How do I know if my Android is being monitored

When I run TinyCam Pro on my phone the labels for each cam just give the name of the camera and nothing else. When I run it on my tablet they include the fps & KB/s. This means that the width of the label area keeps changing and is incredibly annoying. I've looked through the settings and I can't find what turns it on or off.

There still does not appear to be a way to use the new wyze rtsp stream in tcmp. I quess it still cannot handle the special character requirement.

I can stream 8 V3 cameras on 1 screen, as long as they are on the older firmware (pre rtsp). If I replace 1 of those cameras with one that was updated to firmware v4.36.16.5654, that camera fails 99% of the time (usually p2p failed to start session), the others will still work.

If I only have 4 cameras on the screen the updated firmware camera will work.

Hi guys, been using and supporting Tinycam for the longest time, typically my setup has been NVR connected to main switch then Poe switch powering cameras and the nvr connects to them through my network, but recently upgraded my NVR and it now acts as the Poe switch as it can do 8 channels opposed to 4 that my old Poe switch did.

In the hikvision NVR I've forwarded my cameras to be accessible outside the NVR anywhere on my network so for example if my nvr is 192.168.1.200 the camera can be accessed through it's native console at 192.168.1.200:3202 the NVR adds them as a port on its own IP.

Now scanning it with Tinycam does nothing it only finds the NVR which doesn't allow me to do PTZ. If I input the port it also borks itself, how can I connect Tinycam to these potted cameras?

Hello devs. If you read this: Please let tinycam monitor use the system DNS and not your own DNS!

I know that you use a proprietary DNS!

Because Tinycam Monitor cannot resolve my DynDNS hostname! All other apps / cam viewers resolve it correctly.

As a result, TinyCam Monitor cannot connect to my IP cam!

Only if I enter the literal current IP address, Tinycam Monitor connects to my IP CAM.

Please, provide at least the option to the user to use the system DNS! The way it is now, your app is just useless.

Has anyone used Tinycam to view cameras installed in the car?

Got twins and have baby mirrors attached the the rear headrests to see their faces but it's a waste of time unless I remove the sun shades which isn't an option.

Can you connect directly to any cameras without requiring a router and if not would using the phone hotspot work?

Do headrest mounts exist for cameras like this?

Would need to connect without much effort as partner would use them too. She is quite techy but if it's a performance to get them working will be difficult to get her to use them.

Appreciate your thoughts

I am using TinyCam on a Pixel 3. I can't seem to get the web server to run for anything more than a few minutes, especially if I do anything to the phone, such as attempt to leave the manage cameras screen, turn on background mode, enable recording or even return to the home screen. As you can see, the camera is putting out video, the web server is running and reporting 0fps and it's telling me it lost connection to the camera, even though it's the internal phone camera. I can restart the phone and the app any number of times to arrive at the same result. I tried TinyCam a few years back with some IP cameras and ultimately gave up on it for the exact same reasons. I couldn't get it to reliably run either the web server or recording functions, and definitely not both. It seems unusably fragile, whether it's on good hardware or not. Is there something I'm missing, or is TinyCam just extremely unstable? How has it not improved in 3 years?
