Lizenz nötig?

Wenn ich mich verbinden möchte sagt er ich brauche eine Lizenz, ich habe für meine dritte Kamera schon eine gekauft, muss ich jetzt für die App noch eine kaufen? Das wäre dann ein no go.

Stopped working

Won’t even connect anymore. Why keep advertising as a feature when you know it doesn’t work??

Brilliant App Synology!

I’m a long time user of synology nas devices and have 7 between my businesses and home. Synology are constantly surprising me with their inventiveness and I use my devices for cctv, apps through container manager (dbs, node red, HA) and now with this app I can record experimental data straight to the nas using old iPhones I have around. This is genius and has solved yet another thing I was trying to figure out. Keep up the good work Synology.

Bonne idée d’application

Une façon intelligente de recycler un vieux smartphone encore fonctionnel, qui aurait une caméra d’une qualité décente et une bonne connexion WiFi !

Добавьте режим съемки 50-60 Гц

Хорошее приложение. Только режимы сьемки ограничили 30Гц. Даже старые айфоны могут больше.

Peut faire mieux

Ça sera sympa si nous pourrions éteindre complètement l’écran.

No description

Please add a basic description to this application. It’s hard to tell which synology application is intended to do what.

VERY SCARY! Do not put on ios18/iphone 16

iOS 18 not compatible. Skips and crashes the phone. Bummer. But worst part!! Made the iphone 16pro max actually vibrate and heat up something amazing. It was literally scary. DO NOT INSTALL. I suspect it would make the battery explode with what I experienced. Deleting immediately. It is absolutely irresponsible to be allowing this on these $1300 phones.

Не хватает опции подключения внешней камеры.

Было бы удобнее, если можно было подключать внешнюю камеру.

Требует лицензию на вторую камеру

В течение двух месяцев со дня приобретения НАСа работало 2 камеры по бесплатным лицензиям. Сегодня одна перестала работать и требует приобрести лицензию. Бесплатных лицензий теперь одна или всё таки две? Если две, то как решить проблему?

Добавлено: проблему удалось решить путём удаления камеры и добавления её заново.

PPS: через месяц снова слетела бесплатная лицензия с той же камеры. В чём проблема так и не смог понять.

Works well but need ability to mute volume

This app works quite well. I use it to convert my old iPhone 6 to a webcam and feeding the Synology Surveillance Station (SSS) on my Synology NAS.

Using this setup and the Live Broadcast app inside of the SSS, I can create and send a live stream to Youtube (YT) using Youtube Studio. This setup works nicely but I only wish I could mute the microphone volume in this app while it is capturing the video. The app forces you to give access to the phone’s microphone but does not allow you to mute it or adjust it. Maybe I’m just missing something? Though I have read a lot of the documentation and tried many options in the software.

Even the other software involved (SSS and YT) doesn’t give me the ability to NOT send the volume to the live stream. Such a simple little feature that is unavailable.

Synology! If you’re listening, please help and add this feature in this app. Thanks

Crashes

I’ve downloaded this on an iPhone 6 and it works fine. I have also downloaded it on an iPhone 8 but it crashes and shuts down when ever I try to open it. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling but it still crashes every time.

Virtual Garbage

Congratulations on inventing virtual garbage. This app is nothing other than a waste of time and space.

Doesn’t work anymore

I use it on an iPhone 4S and now it doesn’t work : the application won't start if I don't authorize access to the camera. It takes me to the settings but on this ios I can't allow an application, the application has to request it but it does not, that's to bad 😞

Doesn’t work. Can’t connect to NAS.

Tried multiple devices. App just doesn’t connect to NAS neither via lan ip or quickconnect.
Using admin credentials. All other Synology apps (like ds photo etc) working with the same address and credentials.

Response from developer

Dear User, LiveCam is also an IP camera and it will occupy a license. At Surveillance Station, there are two free default licenses. If you need to add more of them, you could purchase from https://sy.to/howtobuy. If the message helps, could you review the rating? Thank you for the feedback. We will keep working hard to make LiveCam better.

Lizenz-Abzocke

Leider wird hier bei mehreren Kameras mit dem Erwerb von zusätzlichen Lizenzen abkassiert.
Schade !

Приложение супер

Но почему 3 звезды. Зависло странным образом, вел прямую трансляцию и примерно через 2 часа работая дальше и не сигнализируя , что нет связи просто продолжила работу , но видео на synology нет. И при этом. После последнего обновления живой звук пропал, он только на записи. Мало того почему бы не добавить 4 к режим видео. И сигнализатор сервера. Я думал использовать для стрима на youtube , но теперь под вопросом. Доработайте приложение. Iphone x ios 15.2.1.
