Remote Access App

by mavace » Wed Dec 06, 2017 2:38 pm

I would like to see a live remote access app for either Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV, Roku, Xbox or Playstation in order to view SH on a monitor or TV. I have my SH machine in a server rack but would like to view a fullscreen grid on my TV. Currently I have a Kangaroo mini pc plugged into the TV with a full screen browser window open to the grid view. This is decent but there is a lot of unused screen real estate and the white background is harsh on the eyes at night. Are there plans for remote viewing applications besides the mobile versions?

Hello,

You can view remote access directly with the remote access ip that you are using to sign into your Sighthound phone app. You will have the grid view with the capability of enlarging the camera live feeds which seems like something you are looking for. You will also have access to live view where you can disable/enable cameras as well as specific rules tied to each camera.

Can you please take a look at that? Feel free to let us know if you have any other questions or concerns, thank you!

Regards,

Kevin

That is what I am doing through the process I outlined in my post. I have a browser opened to the IP address and that browser window if full screen. However, I would like to see an app that is truly full screen.

Unfortunately as of right now, the grid view will be the best available view that we have. I will alert our engineers to see if this is possible and if they would consider implementing a more full screen grid view. Although, there isn't a timeline that I can give to you to show when something like this would be completed and pushed. You can always check the link below to find any new features or bug fixes that have been added:
