Regarding the issues funky told me some months ago that his pi is defect and he might get a new one. if/when he will continue to maintain the plugin has been an open question.
Maybe we should have a look for a new maintainer?

Well, i’ve been using my IP cams with the Iframe plugin… It’s works well i must say!
)EDIT i’m still on 0.8 but i think it wouldn’t matter for Iframe plugin.
Ok sorry that i gave so less informations…
at the first start there was something like that:
at the second start it was installed
after the third start there were messages like this:
then i reinstalled the plugin (remove folder, remove tag from the config, restart, edit the tag again in the config)
after this i had messages like that:
i have to say that i had the sqlite3 error during the installation an installed node 6.2.2, reinstalled sqlite3 and the rest of this was working till yesterday afternoon…

@chris said in Plugin-ipcamera:
node 6.2.2
Please use node v4.4.5 (LTS).
Node 6.2 is packaged with npm v3 which is likely to cause problems. Besides this, using node 6.2 has not been tested at all. There may be some breaking changes.

Ok,
so the plugin works now.
Just began to install from start…
another question is:
Could you add camera-streams from a
rtsp://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/
URL ?
mfg
Chris
i’ve done a little workaround.
to get snapshots from an rtsp-stream.
in short:
in long:
sudo apt-get install screen
sudo apt-get remove ffmpeg
cd /usr/src
sudo git clone git://source.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg.git
screen
screen -r
cd ffmpeg
sudo ./configure
sudo make && sudo make install
screen -r
[...]
INSTALL libavutil/xtea.h
INSTALL libavutil/lzo.h
INSTALL libavutil/avconfig.h
INSTALL libavutil/ffversion.h
INSTALL libavutil/libavutil.pc
the script which make the screenshot is this one:
#!/bin/sh
#Grab snapshot from RTSP-stream
ffmpeg -y -i 'rtsp://IP:PORT' -f image2 -vframes 1 -pix_fmt yuvj420p /home/pi/pimatic-app/node_modules/pimatic-mobile-frontend/public/img/kamera-hzg.jpeg
then you can access the jpeg via
http://IP:PORT/img/kamera-hzg.jpeg
then you just have to edit a rule like this:
{
"id": "snapshot-every-xx-second-kamera-hzg",
"name": "snapshot every xx second kamera hzg",
"rule": "when every 15 seconds then execute \"sudo /home/pi/rtsptojpgcamhzg.sh 2> /dev/null\"",
"active": true,
"logging": false
}
and an iframe-device:
{
"url": "http://IP:PORT/img/kamera-hzg.jpeg",
"width": 340,
"height": 240,
"border": 1,
"reload": 15,
"id": "iframe-ffmpeg-15sec-hzg",
"name": "iframe_ffmpeg_15sec_hzg",
"class": "iframeDevice"
},
so i think i have mentioned all…
edit: 15 seconds-because i have this working on a raspberry pi b+
he is not so fast with the ffmpeg command…

Chris
for cameras with direct jpg or snapshot.cgi, you can get the picture directly via curl:
curl -o snap.jpg http://user:pass@192.168.2.102/snapshot.jpg
More informations about the path of other cameras and how to draw the timestamp in a picture I found here (only in german): http://www.netzmafia.de/skripten/hardware/Webcam/
I always found this a good one for getting info about your cam(s)!
@chris hi! can u help me please, how i can resize image size by sh script? becouse It does not fit into the frame at iFrame device, for ex, i want to see this image in my phone display, thanks…
Hello, yes I think I can help…
I’m using convert for that…
It’s this code:
every 10 seconds execute "sudo convert -resize 640x480 -quality 100 /path/for/origin/image1920x1080.jpg /path/for/resized/image640x480.jpg 2>/dev/null"
The size…
Make a screenshot of your Device an look in the details there you could find the resolution…
Or google your screen size…
Hope this helps…
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Chris
@chris thanks! it works! Advice for all, who not know about “convert” util, it is inludes in imagemagick package, u can install it by command: sudo apt-get install imagemagick
