I have the ability to stream h264 from the cameras as part of a larger project I am getting ready to upload to GitHub. Before I do that, I’d like to find an alpha user.
It just occurred to me yesterday that just the streaming hack may be of more interest than the rest of the project.
There’s a quick demo video here:

You can read about the project here: ( I talk about the streaming way down at the bottom in the Updates: section )

The code is rather crufty right now and I’ve only tried it on a V2 cameras. I have a V3 and getting it to run on that is on my todo list.

This PR resolves this matter by implementing a few configuration options to:
A, Enable/Disable the debug mode.
B, look for wlan.new in the nfs share to update wpa_supplicant.conf and restart wpa_supplicant
C, Specify WLAN SSID and KEY in the config.

Thx, im currently in the process of compiling the uboot to try and get the ispmem variable in the kernel cmdline then attempt to stream from the V3 again |
|
Sounds good. Good luck. There are probably many different ways to get video off the camera.

Seems i've missed something Update: |
This looks very promising on a stock camera. I like the progression you are making, especially on stock camera firmware. The local h264 streaming sounds very cool. I have something similar to your cli except I am using plain ole Korn shell and wget commands to interact with the wyze API mostly because I don't know how to program in python, hehe. It's very kludgy but so far works well, until, like you say, Wyze changes their API. |
|
@BiatuAutMiahn were you able to get a working uboot compiled? |
|
Unfortunately no, I abandoned this project after Wyze pretty much made this irrelevant |
|
@BiatuAutMiahn, perhaps I can pick your brain since you were working on replacing the bootloader, is it possible to flash via serial? or just via /dev/mtd0? |
No, but I was able to put the bootloader on the sdcard and managed to use the uboot serial prompt to flash it |
|
At one point I managed to get the T31 toolchain in attempt to make my own binaries and hopefully get uboot compiled but life happened and I switch focus. If we can get some kind of discord or telegram thread going I can hop back on this project for a while but I'm by no means an expert. |

Hi guys, y’all seem like the ones that would have answers to some questions I’ve always pondered. |
|
the sd card update is done by the bootloader. once the bootloader loads the kernel, it takes over everything. |
|
This may be going a little sideways I just figure considering you guys build uboot images, you know about compiling. I notice the build toolchain of mips-gcc472-glibc216-32bit-r2.3.3 is on here. How would I use that to compile tcpdump for the cams. I know I would also need to compile libpcap. My linux uname comes up with 'i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux' (if that's important) and what special CFLAGS=, LDFLAGS=, etc would I need to make sure I use the uClibc that the cams do. |
|
wz_mini includes a static build of tcpdump, cross compiling can be a pain. |
|
Didn't notice that. You been busy. Great job on that repo!! :) Thanks |
