Caution re upgrading Axis Camera firmware. PTZ grief.

I posted in the Security Spy plugin forum but thought I'd mention it here in case folks are using Security Spy directly, as I did for many years

I updated firmware to Axis firmware 6.x and PTZ presets became a no-go. Lots of hair pulling but found a work-around.

I changed SS actions to have Indigo call a shell script with a curl command to use the presets defined in the cam itself.

Code: Select all

curl http://192.168.x.x/axis-cgi/com/ptz.cgi?gotoserverpresetname=East

A big THANK YOU to Indigo for the power and flexibility provided.
