Just an update on my camera situation.
I proxied the iPad so I could capture all the packets for analysis. I tried every HW camera setting and it appears the iPad was only requesting updates from my 3 openLuup instances with the occasional Apple IOS call outs (cloud, updates etc.). I then stopped my camera server from running Milestone and started up an old instance of Blue Iris. I added a
web tile to HW whereby I used the following URL:
http://ipAddress:81/image/CameraShortNameSaved it and voila, tons of requests being made from HW to my camera server. So I scrapped trying to get
direct-to-camera to work and I'll keep running Blue Iris as I really need these cameras to work. I deleted the web tile and added my cameras back using openLuup. All is well....
