Hello, newbie here. I’ve only just registered today with a single ucam247 camera. I have also noticed this time lag. Does the bandwidth of the stream cause the lag? My set up is using a 1920 x 1080 image size. Should I reduce this and will it reduce the lag?

FireTV 4K Stick (3rd Generation) [2018] The Monocle skill can be used to display local IP camera feeds to your FireTV 4K Stick (Generation 1) however, only when running the Monocle Gateway service locally on your network. FireTV 4K (3rd Generation) The Monocle Gateway service is required because the latest Amazon Alexa enabled device implement further restrictions and only permit RTSP connections from these devices to camera endpoints over encrypted (TLS) transport layer and only permitted to connect on port 443 using fully qualified domain names with valid a SSL certificate. These rigid requirements make it near impossible for most IP cameras to work directly with Alexa devices and thus the Monocle Gateway service acts as a bridge by fulfilling these requirements and enabling communications with your local IP cameras.

We will be working on an official Docker image for the Monocle Gateway soon. However, in the meantime, one of our users has produced a Docker image here for Debian x64 builds: https://hub.docker.com/r/migoller/monoclegatewaydocker/ Thanks, Robert

@mdame The current release of Monocle Gateway is generically compiled for newer ARM architecture such as in the RPi3B/3B+. Please open a support ticket via the link below and reference this forum topic and we can provide you an “untested” version compiled specifically for the Raspberry Pi. https://monoclecam.com/contact Thanks, Robert
