Hi MarkGood choice of camera. For android phone you can't beat "tinycam pro" to he fair one of the few apps worth paying for.Seems to work on any camera from cheap Chinese ones to the better branded ones.Cheers MikeSent from my Samsung Galaxy smartphone.

Garage-cam is probably the most demanding of all of the units.Starting point for requirements: IP camera, full HD resolution, with PTZ, H265, ONVIF profile 'S'. Less than 500ms latency.Current fav is https://www.hikvision.com/au-en/products/HiLook-IP-Products/Network-Cameras/Value-Camera/IPC-T651H-Z/?q=ipc-t651h-z&position=1 which is about NZ$360 at PB tech.Anyone have direct experience with ONVIF profile 'S' cameras ?---------In terms of real-time display, an Android App will be useful, but willing to consider a small stand alone PC and display with external 3-axis joystick to control PTZ.Two minutes of digging turn up Zoneminder (https://zoneminder.com/) and ONVIF Device Manager (https://sourceforge.net/projects/onvifdm/)---------Anyone have any direct experience with any of the above, or direct experience with an alternate solution ?Thanks,Mark_______________________________________________Chchrobotics mailing list Chchrobotics at lists.ourshack.comhttps://lists.ourshack.com/mailman/listinfo/chchroboticsMail Archives: http://lists.ourshack.com/pipermail/chchrobotics/Meetings usually 3rd Monday each month.
