Not working for me HELP

The action I set up isn't working and I get an error in the event log.

Trigger SS test
Schedule trigger "SS test" (delayed action)
Image Downloader and SecuritySpy Helper fetched image from 'Backyard' and saving it to: '/Users/danielespinoza/Documents/camera.jpg'
Image Downloader and SecuritySpy Helper Debug fetched image URL: http://killa: removed from log>@192.168.xxx.xxx/++image?cameraNum=0
Image Downloader and SecuritySpy Helper Error error fetching image. Status code: 401.

I’m not sure this plug-in is still maintained - mine quit working around December of last year. Wondering if it is working for anyone?

Still maintained... But I'm stuck on Indigo 2022.2 until the Onkyo plugin updates, so my testing ability is limited.

However, I do not see any reason why the latest Indigo updates would break anything.

The debug log shows the URL that it's pulling the SS image from. Can you try that in a web browser to see if it's working?

Another suggestion - Log into the SS web interface and ensure that the IP and Ports are working correctly.

It didn't work when I put it in the web browser, page wasn't found.


something like this did work tho
http://killa:pass@192.168.xxx.xxx:8000/image?cameraNum=0&ext=.jpg

okay this worked to
http://killa:pass@192.168.107.xxx:8000/image?cameraNum=0

I'm on the latest version of Indigo - when I trigger SS helper this is the error I get (it was working a few months ago).

Image Downloader and SecuritySpy Helper fetched image from 'SecuritySpy Hikvision Back Gate' and saving it to: '/Users/XXXXXXXX/Desktop/MotionGifs/temp_forGif0.jpg'
Image Downloader and SecuritySpy Helper Error error fetching image. Status code: 401
Image Downloader and SecuritySpy Helper Error Error in plugin execution ExecuteAction:

File "plugin.py", line 405, in downloadImage
File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.11/lib/python3.11/site-packages/PIL/Image.py", line 3247, in open
type: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/Users/xxxxxxxxxx/Desktop/MotionGifs/temp_forGif0.jpg'

My setup looks like this - my path is not "temp_forGif0.jpg" it is "backgate.gif - but maybe the temp file is something SS helper makes first....

There's a number of topics being discussed here that I think are different issues. I've published a beta release for testing that I suggest this group checks out. Note I am still on 2022.2, and am unable to test on 2023.x.

Please post any issues you have.

• Moved the SS auth to basic authentication versus URL string
• Added support for SS SSL Port. note: the plugin will ignore invalid certs.
• Added support for auth methods - basic, digest, for the URL download action
• Added animated GIF support for URL download action
• Added resize support for URL download action
• Other refactoring

Sorry I did jump in on this post - but your update (beta) seems to have fixed my issue - thanks

ok with the beta my trigger worked with no ERRORS. Thank you very much!

I was experiencing the same error as killerdan56. I'm on 2023.2 and your beta release corrected the issue for me as well.

Glad to hear it. I'm going to publish v1.9.
