Amazon sellers suck: Somiku sfwhd712 camera

Post by BobLaske »

Another garbage app based Amazon camera that no one can find information for.

https://www.amazon.com/SOVMIKU-Security ... 0B3MD3HTY/

Any chance someone is using this or knows how to configure it for ZM.

Scroll down and one of the reviews gives RTSP settings. It also claims ONVIF support.

Yes, nothing mentioned in the amazon comments works however.
And I cannot find any information what so ever. I've reached out to the seller so we'll see if they have anything to say but since it's 'app' driven, they likely will not share any other info.

I was able to get video to zm using onvif;

rtsp://admin:admin@192.168.192.123:554/user=admin_password=tlJwpbo6_channel=1_stream=0&onvif=0.sdp?real_st
UDP,. 32 bit. Resolutions that work, 2592x1520, 2592x1944, maybe others too.

However, that's it. No controls.

That's why I'm asking here.

ONVIF device manager finds it and can control it using PTZ. Now if I can transfer that to ZM and get a complete setup, I could share that with the community too.

Do the ZM ONVIF controls not work either?

The controls don't work yet but that's because I can't find enough information to know what to set yet.

The onvif probe can control the PTZ but the seller says "Sorry, our onvif does not have a PTZ agreement".
They won't give me any information what so ever.

I give up, sent it back for something supported.
