You might want to try running Wireshark instead if fiddler to capture all of the packets. For the camera, you can probably filter on rtsp to make sense of it.

@elfege:

Alan is right.

Fiddler proxy, it was all as if the app was capable to bypass the proxy settings. It'd work even when fiddler would be done on the computer on which it's running, same with Charles proxy. I'm missing something

Fiddler and Charles proxy are http(s) proxy monitors, can't help you with the video.

If you want real communications monitor you need something like wireshark or ethereal.

A few months ago a friend of mine sent me a few communication captures, for the same purposes.

use VLC and try the following url:

rtsp://stream:[email protected]:6667/streamhd

#stream:video = user:password
#192.168.18.199 = replace with your mebo robot ip
#6667 - static port
#streamhd - url path for the hd video

i don't know if it works, my friend sold the robot (he got bored quickly).

if it works please let me know, i spent some time looking to the captured data for nothing

btw there are more commands (url scripts) but you need to analyze the data.

YES IT WORKS! Thank you soooo much!

@Alan thank you for your answer too. As a matter of fact I was also running wireshark but for some reason I would never get a rtsp protocol through the filters. None, at all.

@elfege I am interested in the android library. Could you please share it? A github would be perfect, but I take anything, including a zip file. If you want, send it to [email protected]

I bought today an mebo and a 710 kobra, and I am planning to play with them for a while.

Thank you, Edi

@edisonn sorry It's only today that I see I never answer your request. Here is a link, in case you haven't figured it out already.

Question: has anybody figured out a way to control it over the internet using a vpn? I've tried with openvpn but to no avail. Any idea? I can control it remotely using the http api and ez-robot, but I'd like also to be able to do it from my iphone using the original app... I was assuming, at first, that a simple vpn, emulating my local network, would suffice, as it works for many other applications. It seems, though, that the vpn can't transmit tcp packets... am I right?

Thanks in advance, Elfege

@elfege I think you forgot the link.

As far as openVPN, it should handle all tcp and udp traffic, but iPhones are pretty locked down and may not pass all traffic through the VPN. This is just one of the many reasons I use Android. Even without root, I have much more control over the operating system, and if I really need it to do something outside the manufacturer or carrier's design, most can be rooted.
