Following. Same problem. Can view cameras through Alexa spot but just set up echo show 8 and can not view camera.
Looking for a workaround or app update to fix.
-
@chazzzzz do you mind sharing your spot config so I can review how you have it working? As it may be related to firmware but I have Chinese grey cams - but same issue in UK home purchased one also… so ruled that out…
-
@Liaquat same. Chinese grey cams. Works with the spot… just standard RTSP setup. Thought it would be just as compatible with the echo 8. But it isn’t.
-
I cannot get any of my cameras to work with Monocle on the Echo Show 8 and I have a few different types. Even using the gateway/tunnel. The RTSP feeds all work fine in VLC. For all of them the same thing occurs. The Show 8 never displays the camera. Whats strange is in the logs for the gateway I see “RTSP client playing media stream: Front Door”. From the logs it appears everything is working but nothing actually displays on the Show 8.
-
Grateful if monocle support could advise of anything we may have missed?
-
Try @hangup @noaudio @proxy-tcp
-
Make sure you have a basic password. No symbols.
If you have audio on your camera, turn it off.
I have been looking at my hikvision cameras, all mine use @tunnel on the show 8
Make sure you ask Alexa to find new devices -
Ok got it working…
my Notepad log as below, which while long may help others with my step by step process on BASIC v DIGEST, VMWare ports, use of Gateway etc… the answer for me was FIREWALL - kaspersky blocking something so just need to figure out - i suspect 443
"running gateway
when starting it identifies gateway as (not sure about the RTSP Server listening set as 0.0.0.0:8555 etc (assuming broadcast listening?) :"VERSION = 0.0.4

HOST = 192.168.0.14
PORT = 443"ping the FQDN translates to the IP correctly - originally showed IP for a Virtual Ethernet… so disabled virtual ports on laptop
ipconfig /flushdns
ipconfg and restarted gateway
this now showed the laptops correct IP of x.x.x.14 as aboveon DS-2CD2532F-IS Camera
the video configuration on the physical camera is set as :
main stream only for video (not video and audi)
substrem only for video (not video and audio)substream set to :352x288, variable, highest quality, h.264
mainstream same but higher res.on Monocole web config
have configured multiple configs
@noaudio, @tunnel/@no proxy, @proxy-tcp and trying all variants on ALEXA Show and monocole - still same - “not responding”strings as below with settings which I have attempted - using varity of BASIC vs DIGEST, proxy TCP in lieu of UDP and also stream channels - password is long but simple using alpha and numerics:
MAIN channel ok on VLC - not working on SHOW8
rtsp://192.168.0.32:555/video.h264
BASICH264NONE192*192@noaudio@tunnelMAIN channel ok on VLC - not working on SHOW8
rtsp://192.168.0.32:555/Streaming/Channels/101
BASICH264NONE192*192@noaudio@proxy-tcpSub channel ok on VLC - not working on SHOW8
rtsp://192.168.0.32:555/Streaming/channels/102
BASICH264NONE192*192@noaudio@proxySub channel with DIGEST - not working anywhere.
rtsp://192.168.0.32:555/Streaming/channels/102
DIGESTH264NONE192*192@noaudio@proxy-tcplost for ideas…
disabled kaspersky also and Thought id try the other cameras - (UK ones not the grey cam)
which was configured as:SideCam
Manufacturer:HikvisionModel:DS-2CD2142-FWD-i
rtsp://192.168.0.34:557/Streaming/channels/102)
BASICH264NONE192*192@noaudio@tunnelthis wasnt working before… it started showing up on the SHOW8!! (takes a few seconds to start)
Issue therefore isnt the frmware or grey v UK
you NEED the gateway
you NEED to disable firewall (will figure out if 443 or the cam ports n a bit)I now have cams working ok as:
Manufacturer:HikvisionModel:DS-2CD2532F-IS
rtsp://192.168.0.32:555/Streaming/channels/102
BASICH264NONE192*192@noaudio@tunnelManufacturer:HikvisionModel:DS-2CD2532F-IS
rtsp://192.168.0.33:556/Streaming/channels/102
BASICH264NONE192*192@noaudio@tunnelManufacturer:HikvisionModel:DS-2CD2142-FWD-i
rtsp://192.168.0.34:557/Streaming/channels/102
BASICH264NONE192*192@noaudio@tunnelwill try to up the sub stream resolution as main stream displays black (prob cos resolution too high)
re-enabled the VM network cards and fushed DNS -the cams still work…therefore all along it was firewall… sigh!
now to try and get my DANMINI doorbell to work… see if ti generates a RTSP stream to capture…Hope this helps someone!"
