I have some question.
I’m trying to test blynk-video streaming with RPI camera by using uv4l for stream. (really same with your project).
I checked video on the webserver ( my IP address) , However, I can’t see video on my blynk app-video streaming widget.
It is ok with other projects like LED control over blynk app.
I used below source in Blynk help center, and set the pin number of video widget ‘V1’.
var Blynk = require('blynk-library');
var AUTH = 'YourAuthToken';
var blynk = new Blynk.Blynk(AUTH);
var v1 = new blynk.VirtualPin(1);
var v9 = new blynk.VirtualPin(9);
v1.on('write', function(param) {
console.log('V1:', param[0]);
});
v9.on('read', function() {
v9.write(new Date().getSeconds());
});
Could you reply about how to view on blynk videio streaming widget?
I don’t care delay.
I did not use any code that was related to the video stream. In the video stream widget I simply entered the URL of the stream. (i.e. http://<>:8080/stream/video.mpeg) port number based on your config of course.
@hajoengjj You pick whatever vPin you want, or have available… As per the documents (you did read them, right?) it is used to send a URL to the widget from your device code, instead of manually typing it into the widget.
In my case, I did not select a vPin at all. I simply filled in the URL for the stream. I did have to play around with the /etc/uv4l/uv4l-raspicam.conf settings a bit. In particular:
The default resolution and framerate for UV4L was too big for the widget to handle. These settings seem to have the biggest impact on my original lag issue.

I used below source in Blynk help center, and set the virtual pin number of video widget ‘V0’.
Finally, I wrote ‘node index.js’ on terminal.
var Blynk = require('blynk-library');
var AUTH = 'YourAuthToken'; //my AuthToken
var blynk = new Blynk.Blynk(AUTH);
var v0 = new blynk.VirtualPin(0);
var v1 = new blynk.VirtualPin(1);
var v9 = new blynk.VirtualPin(9);
v1.on('write', function(param) {
console.log('V1:', param[0]);
});
v9.on('read', function() {
v9.write(new Date().getSeconds());
});
Plus, other kind blynker said as below.

So, I did the same with the quide he said. but I failed.
And I don’t understand the success without selecting a vPin and any coding.
I created blynk-project (hardware setting raspberrypi)
and finished setting to use bynk in RPi like downloading blynk library, installing node.js on Linux, installing uv4l etc.
But, What I can see is the sentence "No video stream available! "
At the same time, The buttont widget under video widget is work well. LED on and LED off ~
I don’t know what I have to do anymore…
I really wonder the solution other peoples know.
I just correct URL as you siad ( add /video.mjped),
Success!!!
I’m satisfied with video stream, even though there is log lag
I really appreciated you help.!!
hello there, i can now stream my video from raspi camera using your instruction. but there is a delay while streaming the video. how can i solve this? is it because of the slow internet connection?
However I am still unclear as to what you are having issues with?
