Finding a way to record with a cheap china hidden wifi nanny cam.

[wantafastz28]

All the programs I've downloaded freeze up after an hour or 2 of recording. I need to find something that can record at least 8 hours a day... Anyone know of any apps that would take this task on?

The stupid little thing works pretty darn well. I just don't have time to do live viewing, I need to record it.

You'll probably have to snoop on your network traffic to figure out how to connect to it with something like wireshark. From the description, it sounds like it does have a local means of accessing the stream and not just the cloud based option.

If you can get the feed to work in VLC you can record it in VLC, but at that point you can probably also make it work in blue iris or tinycam.

I'll keep plugging away at it... if I hit dead ends I'll come back asking for some more hints.

Did you run nmap against the device, to check for open ports and port signatures?

 

[wantafastz28]

Well port 80 works fine, so no I haven't. Ispy pulls everything fine from the camera. I just can't get the sound going so far.

Interesting question by on amazon on page 6; if that's not you, someday you might have some good info to share with that person.

As suggested by @tangent , I wonder if wireshark could be employed find something of value while using that app they mentioned?

I have this working in ispy... it gives the link of http://admin:@192.168.0.26/videostream.asf?user=admin&pwd=&resolution=320*240 as functional... im having no dice getting it to go in BI. I've tried videostream.asf along with paths or parameter combinations with the above info...it works fine in a browser... still plugging away.

@TonyR - If I can get it working I will happily reply on Amazon to that person.... their app is worthless, I was better off finding the IP and figuring it out myself.

Apparently if I make it a foscam, and wait a few power cycles it works... who would of thought!
