How to take a camera snapshot and send it through email on Zipatile? / Record a short video using r?

Need Answer

I'm starting to play with my Zipatile and wanted to create some tests with the snapshot and video recording function of the camera.


Basically my first atempt was to use the motion sensor to detect presence, take a snapshot and send it through email. Didn't work, see attached rule.


Second I wanted to record a small video whenever motion is detected but the rule shows as invalid, see attached rule.


Does someone had something like this working?

Dear Alberto,


I tried to recreate your rule with snapshot and it worked fine for me. Can you check maybe if you have some invalid rule prior to rule with snapshots?

Recording option will be available soon, that's why you were getting error messages.

Mato,


I have only a couple rules in my Zipatile since I have all my devices in my zipabox, there is no invalid rule. Today it started to work randomly, sometimes I only get the email without an attachment, sometimes I get it correctly. Do I need to add a delay or something?

Hi. I have the same issue. I just bought Foscam R2. Everything is working great apart from setting a rule to record See screenshot when I select recording on my IP Camera. When I save the rule, I got the same error message and then on the right it says 'INVALID' beside my rule.

Dear Olivier,


we are introducing some changes in the configuration of Recording and it is unfortunately not available yet.

I will give you an update through this topic when it is completed.

Thank you for your patience regarding this matter.


Best regards,

Pero

Hello,


I would appreciate an update if any from Zipato. It a great feature for safety app through Zipato.


I am looking for something similar, easier even: it is just to e able to switch my Zipatile on (this is possible already) and open automatically the mpeg stream of a certain camera on the screen of Zipatile. Also for a safety development.
