ZoneMinder Android app

Post by alias2696 »

Hi guys, we just launched a brand new app, ZMView which can be used to connect to ZoneMinder, it's version 1, so please report any bugs you might find, and of course new features you might think are useful. For the moment it only has http support but we are working on supporting https soon.

App name it's ZMView

Enjoy
Thanks

Hi PacoLM,
thank you for the output, can you give us more information, like:
- what Android version are you using
- what ZoneMinder server version
- is your android device rooted?
- if possible some logs from the device?

Thank you
P.

Android version: 4.0.3
Zoneminder: 1.25

My cell phone is not rooted, in the logs of zoneminder I could not see anything wrong.

Regards,

PacoLM

Hi,

Updated automatically in every update, still not working in a Samsung Galaxy II (Android version: 4.0.3) and Zoneminder 1.25, here are the logs in the ZM server end:

And stays like this while I have the app open.

Hi,

Updated to the latest version right now. Still does not work. I have made a test: if I put the external IP address (this.is.myip:port), the app is able to connect and recognize the ZM server, but selecting a camera for live view shows the round "waiting for operation" forever.
If I put the adress as this.is.myip:port/index.php, then selecting a camera for live view seems to work, but does not show anything.

Using the wifi and internal ip address has the same behavior....weird, isn't it???
