I added a baby cam to my BI5 with the only purpose to access it remotely with tinyCam Monitor, so I don't have to setup a VPN or open ports. Unlike other cameras, I don't want the BI to monitor this camera at all. I only want it to become active when I connect remotely so the BI can webcast it. I unchecked all I reasonably could - nothing is checked in the Trigger tab, nothing in Record, in Alert, in Watchdog. I unchecked "Continue to display and stream video while inactive" in the Schedule tab. I checked "Limit decoding unless required" to see if it made a difference. Nope.
The problem is that while remote streaming works fine when I connect remotely, BI continues to pull the stream from the camera all the time. I wanted to avoid this as I rarely connect remotely. I tried to make the camera hidden but then I can't stream is remotely.
Is there any way to prevent the BI from pulling the stream all the time and do it only when needed?
