cheap onvif camera, tonton: onvif storage access and motion sensing

[Ron C]

Hello,

I bought a few cheap/inexpensive tonton cameras to play with and they seem to be onvif compatible.

What I like to do, through onvif, with XML and some code access the SD storage and the also see if I can do some motion detection.

Is there a forum, or some examples, on how to do that with onvif?

thanks,

Ron

You are wasting your time and money.
Study the cliff notes.
Wifi cams are not reliable.
For a little more money you can purchase real IP cams that won't give you heartburn.

Hi @Ron C

I do recall seeing some discussions which are more dev centric here - though I typically have glossed over those topics. Not certain if there really is any example of exactly of what you are looking for. Still do dig and search the forum a bit.

Hi Ron, there's a forum that concentrates on developing an open ip camera firmware. If I recall they have the sdks for different chipsets and tutorials etc. When I was strictly linux, I spent some time there. I don't know how up to date they are but you might give them a try.
