  3. Add Lorex camera support

    I'm using Lorex MCNC100. It supports RTSP video feed.

    The password for video seed is set separately. It also requires camera ID as part of the URL.

    The complete URL is rtsp://<address>:554/<camera_id>.<play_video_password>

    Video is mp4v (H264). Audio is PCM MU-LAW (mlaw).

    If OWLR can add generic RTSP support, it is good enough to expend the list of supported devices.

  4. Please support IPv6 addresses in Foscam app. My ISP only allows incoming connections over IPv6, not IPv4! Support IPv6 DNS AAAA records.

    Please support IPv6 addresses in Foscam app. My ISP only allows incoming connections over IPv6, not IPv4! Support IPv6 DNS AAAA records for domain name lookup as well. My IPv6 router will port forward to the internal IPv4 local camera address.

    We are looking into it. We have discovered that many people like the digital zoom with the buttons – whereas we had planned on supporting only optical zoom with the buttons and pinch-to-zoom for the zoom in.

  8. Support DVR with multiple cameras

    Have a Defender DVR, all cameras run through that unit. Apps like ASee are horrible but the only solution for using a single IP to multiple camera viewer. Have this mixed with a few Foscam cameras. Would love to have all of them under one app. So far the app is great guys!

  10. Toggle Motion Detection

    I use OWLR with the Foscam C1 HD camera. Your app works very well, much better than the paid apps too.

    I use the C1 as a baby monitor and would like to toggle the Motion/Sound detecion from the OWLR app

    The only way to do that now is to open the focam app-click on the camera-settings-alert-activity detection/sound detection-on/off

    Also Video recording/iPad support will be awesome.

  11. Several suggestions and reports

    I'm pasting my iOS App Store review here to make sure it gets heard. The App Store has a dendency to over analyze reviews...

    This app is great! I was able to set up my camera within a couple minutes. It scanned my network and found them all and preloaded the correct IP information. I am also able to connect remotely with my current network configuration.

    I have it four stars because I have a couple concerns. Here they are;

    1. I do not see the option to use HTTPS when connecting. This is a big deal. Please add this ASAP.…

    UPDATE Mar 2016: wow. Sometimes, the best plans are up for funny. All of the things stated below are true but we are in the midst of a proper rewrite of the iOS codebase – so it may take a little longer. Humble apologies.

    ORIGINAL: Justin -

    Thanks for the feedback here – want to make sure you get the answers:

    1. HTTPS is on the roadmap – sometime in October.
    2. On the 2132 and 5222 – we do support the PTZ. But we are working on the other features.
    3. If you are using a VPN, then you are always on your local network if they are on the same network – so you do not need the external details – unless you wish to access them through your home network providers router.
    4. We are on the Sort feature – we had it a…

  12. Access to all Foscam video streams (main, sub, etc)

    Allow for the Detailed view to support the high bit-rate stream and the substream (lower bit rate) when accessing from some control either on the screen or via the Settings.
