Hi,

Just for your information...

I´m having the same issue with the python error... running in XBMC 13.2 with the addon. XBMC 13.2 was re-installed after try Kodi 14, in the same PC that was working before but now I´m getting this error only when the preview function is in use:

FI9821W V2

RE: Foscam HD - Video feed with camera controls, and motion/sound detection preview - quixers - 2015-02-19

nickiman tried my patched version of the script? should fix it..

RE: Foscam HD - Video feed with camera controls, and motion/sound detection preview - nickiman - 2015-02-20

Not yet quixers...

I´ve already downloaded and probably I´ll try it tomorrow night...

My setup is:
Windows 7
XBMC 13.2
Addon Foscam HD: 0.0.21
FOSCAM: FI9821W (V2):
-------------->System Firmware Version: 1.4.1.9
-------------->Application Firmware Version: 2.11.2.8
-------------->Plug-In Version: 2.0.2.10

I´ll let you know.

RE: Foscam HD - Video feed with camera controls, and motion/sound detection preview - nickiman - 2015-02-23

Hi quixers,

I´ve tried your script following your recomendation to install it:

Quote:Download this, rename it script.foscamFix.zip

https://github.com/peteakalad/script.fos...master.zip

To install, uninstall the existing version then install my patched one..

1) Go to settings -> add-ons -> Program add-ons -> Foscam HD -> uninstall -> Yes

2) Go to settings -> add-ons -> Install from zip file -> select the downloaded file above 'script.foscamFix.zip'

After that I´ve configured again all the parameters in the addon and I´ve checked that running the addon I can see in full screen the live view of the camera.

But when an alarm preview is triggered the little square with the image from the IP camera doesn´t show anything.

I can see only the cross to close the preview in the upper right corner fo the square but, without images from the camera. I attach you a snapshot capturing that situation:

Image

Movement triggered on IP cam

I attach you the part of the log where I think could be the error:

Code:

But anyway I send you also the complete log file in case you need to do a deeper analysis of the situation:

Keep waiting your comments.

Thanks for your help.

Does this error also occur when using Kodi 14.1 or 14.2 beta?

In my case, I haven´t tried with any of these versions... only with Kodi 14.

RE: Foscam HD - Video feed with camera controls, and motion/sound detection preview - freddy12 - 2015-02-23

Im using kodi 14.2 beta and im also getting the blank preview window

RE: Foscam HD - Video feed with camera controls, and motion/sound detection preview - quixers - 2015-02-24

Hmm perhaps the stream handling needs a bit more tweaking for other cameras

Could anyone with a blank image showing send/attach one of the snaphot files from your .kodi directory?

e.g. this one would do for nickiman
C:\Users\NICMA\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\userdata\addon_data\script.foscam\snapshots\​snapshot.1424598028.5.jpg

RE: Foscam HD - Video feed with camera controls, and motion/sound detection preview - freddy12 - 2015-03-08

Ive looked in that folder and its empty when the preview comes up. Their is snapshots that appear but quickly dissappear. But the images dont open when try to copy them they dont work

RE: Foscam HD - Video feed with camera controls, and motion/sound detection preview - therealabdo - 2015-04-06

Hello there

first of all thanx for the plug in but i couldnt make it work until now Sad

I have a raspberry pi with Kodi 14.1 installed

I have a Foscam cam

The latest FOSCAM HD i have is 0.021

I guess i am using the worng data in the field of HOST

please help Big Grin

RE: Foscam HD - Video feed with camera controls, and motion/sound detection preview - quixers - 2015-04-26

So latest 2.x.1.119 firmware for HD cameras (mines a FI9831P) fixed the issue with the stream url so the parameters are as per their spec. This broke my fork of the foscam script.

I updated my github fork with a fix for this and confirm its working ok for me.

https://github.com/peteakalad/script.foscam

therealabdo: if you are using wrong data in the host field, er.. use the RIGHT data in host field then, i.e. your internal IP of the foscam Smile

RE: Foscam HD - Video feed with camera controls, and motion/sound detection preview - dubbeloseven - 2015-05-01

The addon doesnt work for me anymore, the screen stay black, when i press stop and go back to the main menu in a split second i see a normal camera screen.
I use kodi on my raspberry pi 2 with the Foscam HD addon.
What is the problem?
I already reinstalled the addon.

RE: Foscam HD - Video feed with camera controls, and motion/sound detection preview - quixers - 2015-05-01

Did you update firmware on the camera? If not update to 2.1.x.119 and try my version of the script, look at previous post on how to get/install it...
