Hello All - version 1.2.3 now released with this fix. Sorry again for the interruption!

[odelay]

I have a FI9826PW camera and trying to get it work. I does not work out of the box, i'm want to see what is going wrong but can't find the log file.
Does anyone know where to find the log file on a openelec installation? thx!

[maikito26]

odelay - Not sure about the log location on openelec... but are you getting a script error during Kodi startup after configuring the camera in settings? Do any of the features work such as viewing the camera from the menu?

[odelay]

I got "Camera not configured properly" now when selecting the camera. I have only configured IP, port (88) and username pw. Left all other settings on default

[maikito26]

That should be all that's required. Which device type is selected? Foscam HD? -> Try disabling the Preview for the camera in the settings (leave it enabled) and see if you get another error.

If you can find the logs, it'll show any errors with the credentials or if you increase it to Debug, you should be able to see the commands and responses from the camera.

I feel a bit stupid.. It was something with the account, after creating a new account it is fully working. Amazing add-on, thanks for that Maikito!

Hello together,
I have 2 Foscam Cameras in the moment configured 1 Foscam FI9853EP and 1 FI9821EP.
The Foscam FI9853EP hangs every two hours round about.and i must restart the view of all cameras.
I dont use any preview and the camera is exiting in the log with following lines. :

21:17:37 62796.796875 T:1896870976 ERROR: COMXCoreComponent:ecoderEventHandler OMX.broadcom.egl_renderOMX_ErrorInsufficientResources, insufficient resources

Any ideas why tis happens?

What device are you using with Kodi? Im not sure yet what's going on...it seems it's tripping on system resources. I might be able to improve on this as I've given it some thought for upcoming changes to allow more than 4 cameras. Or at least let it refresh on its own if it crashes like this. Which streams type have you chosen for these cameras in all camera player BTW?

[nigelman]

I use a raspberrypi model b with 512 mb ram, not the new version with Quadcore on Kodi 16.2 Isengard..
Streamtype is Snapshot in the All camera section.
It does not refresh on its own, i have to restart the All Camera selection.
The picture of the stream is frozen an the camera time is not counting.

[maikito26]

Thanks nigelman. The auto-refresh is coming. The holidays have me a bit behind my release schedule and I've been opting for movies and video games over coding haha.

What seems to be happening, based on that log snippet, is that it saves a picture file which can't be read. This is killing the process which sort of makes sense because of it reporting 'insufficient resources'.

Would you be able to increase logging to debug in the add-on and PM me a longer log snippet? In order to make sure any code changes I make to remedy this I need to see where in the process the camera is failing. Cheers!

Hello maikito26,
i have no permission for pm and i the loglevel was set to debug.

Okay - final questions before I head off to work on this....

Are there images in this folder at the time of failure, and are they increasing in numbers? Can they be opened and viewed from there?

/storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/plugin.video.surveillanceroom/

[nigelman]

Hello maikito26

In the folder :/storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/plugin.video.surveillanceroom/ are only 2 jpgs: fanart_camera1.jpg and fanart_camera2.jpg.
there is no picture called AllCamera_2.13036.jpg etc...cant decode to texture.

many greetings

This weekend i got 2 additional cams, Foscam FI9853EP and one C1.
There was the same problem only with my 2 Foscam FI9853EP.
Then i made a firmware upgrade to the latest version released, and now everything is running without any problems.
Thanks for your good work.

greetings nigelman
