I coming from 1.8.6.1C mod rtsp,ftp,telnet

Only notice that videos load around 4 sec compare to 10/20 sec(This only happens after few view). The camera does not stuck between day/night mode which happen around 7am/pm. Used keeps switching in between and can last for 1 hour.

I dont face error much like 5000 or 3006 when connect from 3G/4G but still slow compare to my foscam.

I dint test on audio as i dont use it.

set your region as China in the app itself.

Strange, I tried a few apps. One can choose country, but only "asia". the other app, there's no such selection at all. must I download a special Chinese app?

I installed mi home and it does let me select the country. I selected China but still got the error msg on connection: "this camera can only be used within China".

Is there a version which I must install? I tried 3.92, 4.11, same problem.

Hi,

Anyone having issue of viewing Xiaomi Xiaoyi when is on 3G/4G or Wifi that is not home? I can only view it when I'm on home wifi that is the same network as the camera, other than that, cannot even view.
Any solution??

No Motion Detection Alerts

I have the old xiaoyi and new xiaofang camera. Both were working fine until recently i was no longer receiving any motion detection alerts from my iphone app.

Anyone encountered this problem before? the app still have motion detection recording, just that it does not provide alert notifications to the phone.

Phone noticfications are turned on.

so what is the latest camera firmware and apps version that we can use for the 12CN model?

are we able to update the apps regularly?

my current mi home is 4.2.5 and camera firmware is 1.8.6.1c.

please advice.

I installed mi home and it does let me select the country. I selected China but still got the error msg on connection: "this camera can only be used within China".

I've a Xiaofang camera with latest Mihome/Android and set the camera to record on motion detect.

Does anyone have problem with MiHome connecting to the camera during office hours? After office hours, it's fine with phone or mifi mobile broadband, but during office hours, it's always cannot connect.

The camera records fine when it detects motion. Just can't view live feed during office hours.

For those of you who do not receive notifications from cam, go add an automation task, like this:

The only drawback is you'll receive 3 notifications at 1 go

Hello,

Can I just set it as "record local video only"? I can't be bothered about viewing it online. Just record the video into the SD continuously.
