Release Surveillance Room - Your IP Camera Companion with extra Foscam HD Support
Did anyone find a solution for NOT showing the menu in the background while using: http://192.168.1.1:8080/jsonrpc?request={"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"Addons.ExecuteAddon","params":{"wait":false,"addonid":"plugin.video.surveillanceroom","params":{"action":"show_preview","camera_number":"1","id":"1"}},"id":2} ??

Unfortunately I did not. Had to switch to a different Plugin to achieve just my picture in picture solution. If Doorbell pressed.... Kodi shows me the feed in a lower corner.

Security Cam Overlay 0.1.0Image

Of course when in action only the picture in picture shows up.

http://username: password@IPaddress:port/cgi-bin/mjpg/video.cgi?subtype=1

Subtype = 1 is important because on this camera, and I'm sure others, there are 2 streams. The main stream is in H264 and in the camera settings can't be switched to mjpeg. Only the substream has the option in camera settings to switch it to mjpeg. The quality isn't as good but this is the only way I could get it working on this app. Now this camera works in both preview and in all cameras. However I can't select motion detection or sound detection, do these not work with generic IP camsHuh

Thanks to the author, I hope you keep working on this.
As far as I know the motion and sound detection do not work with generic IP cameras. Regarding the preview I now have mine set to snapshot and as this is taken from the mainstream the quality is much better, snapshot URL for the 841 is http://username:pass@ipaddress/cgi-bin/snapshot.cgi?channel=1

Edit: never mind, works.

It took a while but I found a solution. You can force Kodi back into Full Screen mode right after invoking the preview by using the following command:
http://192.168.1.9:8080/jsonrpc?request={"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "GUI.SetFullscreen", "params": { "fullscreen": "toggle" }, "id": "1"}

So if you are watching a movie while the preview is called, the addon context menu is removed.

I've just managed to set up the first camera, Sricam IP camera, Chinese clone no doubt. Working fine but needs a few little tweeks. I'm trying to add a second camera, a DBPower, another Chinese clone I imagine.

I've gone into Add-On Settings,Control,Camera2Enabled.Nothing on the Settings bar for Camera2 is showing up.All I can still see is the Settings tabs are Control,Global,Preview,Camera1

I've returned back to the menu that now shows Camera2 Advanced Menu and Add on Settings. I've selected Camera2 Advanced Menu and have a choice of Show Preview, Disable Preview,Play Video Without Controls,Camera Settings,Reboot Camera.I've selected Camera Settings and get Surveillance Room Error,Check Log.

Am I missing something really simple her to add a 2nd and more cameras to Surveillance Room.Apologies if this seems like a silly question.Tongue



Sorry to drag this up but how did you get the Sricam to work with this, having trouble.

I used ths cam's ip as host, username as per the one on the back of the camera and pass as the one I set up (port 88). Did you do anything else?

Can anyone give me some pointers as to how to get my Wanscam HW0043 to work with this plugin ?

https://www.amazon.com/Wanscam-HW0043-Wi...B01CD3HSU6

I have tried to use this url in all feeds :

http://myuser:[email protected]/tmpfs/auto.jpg

or http://myuser:[email protected]/web/admin.html

But i just get a cross over the feed in surveillance room plugin.

Best Regards
