Samsung "wifi" API #62

Closed Tommixoft closed 7 years ago

Tommixoft commented 8 years ago

Does anyone tried to look at samsung api of it's app? I mean we could make android app with nice gui, and that way can change stuff and apply settings/mods. App should use some http protocol to communicate with camera. i once tried but no success their apk is total shit. you install installer, and where is the real app i could not locate inside apk.

EDIT Looks like Bluetooth would made more sense than wifi, it uses BT not wifi.

I see that for image gathering it uses camera's 7679 port. Is there linux tools to attach to port and listen what is sent to it?

Hi! I am developing an android remote controller app for nx cameras. Although it is not related with samsung 'wifi' API.

Visit my github repository. https://github.com/mewlips/nx-remote-controller-mod

There is a install zip file for nx camera and a android apk file. The app is only tested on my nx500 and in alpha stage.

@mewlips wow looks like what im talking about! :) I think NX mod could be controlled via mobile app too, not just from camera GUI which is very limited. so camera could have some master app and mobile "talks" with it via http or other protocol.

EDIT: i see you doing some nice work...already created internal camera app and so on..nice

I'd love an android app with live view, peaking and manual focus. that way the focus puller could work with his or her smartphone on set, even when on a gimbal.

Tommixoft commented 7 years ago

There is alread such app. https://github.com/mewlips/nx-remote-controller-mod You see 100% the same view in phone what you see on camera lcd, also you can control camera the same way via phone like you would on camera touching screen

It does not seem to include Manual focus though, does it?

ottokiksmaler commented 7 years ago

As answered in another issue, you should open an issue with that app so that the author can add that functionality. He is very fast to respond and had implemented several requests functions already. Manual focus control is also documented so there should be no issue with implementation (apart from the UI design which should be simple and functional).
