Use the Hyakume (百目 - "Hundred Eyes") app to view & record the H.264/MJPEG video streams produced by a wide list of IP cameras (doorbell, security, surveillance, baby/pet monitor, traffic, weather, etc.).

You can store up to 100 Camera objects in 10 separate Camera Lists (examples: Home, Office, Storage, etc.).

To add a new Camera object, choose a unique name (Living room, Kitchen, Spooky Basement, etc.) & provide the Camera's local IPv4 address, video stream path, format & IP port.

Test the new connection to confirm it's valid & generate a sample camera snapshot image.

Use the ONVIF Discovery option to locate new ONVIF-compatible IP cameras on the local network.

Save new Camera objects in the current Camera List.

Cameras are continually polled & will display a snapshot image & polling timestamp if they're online.

Tap an online Camera to open its video stream.

Record multiple video segments, capture snapshot images & expand the Camera view to full-screen.

NOTE: The saved image & video files are available for later archiving, uploading & sharing.
