Using an IP Camera

I was looking at the iOS beta version of the app the other day and saw that it has the ability to assign a url to a button. When you click the button then the url opens in a full screen browser window.

I think this functionality is already available in the Android version?

It occurred to me that this might be a better way to display a video feed. If you have a url that gives you camera control, multiple cameras etc then this would be an easy way to view this page. Obviously it’s not the same as having the feed embedded in your main Blynk screen, but might be an alternative if you can’t get the video stream widget to work for your camera setup.

Also, you might find this handy for getting the video stream widget to work…

Pete.
