i have Amcrest security camera system so i need the Amcrest app to view the cameras https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mm.android.direct.AmcrestViewPro
the Amcrest app is not available on the Play store when i browse on the Mi Box so i side load the apk. i still cant get the app working properly. anyone else got it working?
I would HIGHLY recommend switching to TinyCam Pro. It is vastly better than the Amcrest app(I have Amcrest cameras too) and compatible with AndroidTV. With the Pro version you can make it do cool things like auto uploading motion recordings to any cloud service you want.
Sorry, can't help you with getting the Amcrest app working, I gave up on it on my phone even.
I want amcrest cameras because it's one of the few poe cameras that lets you upload to your own drive for free. No subscription fee.
I agree with others the tinycam pro app is the way to go for the mibox. I have a dedicated mi box s and a 24" tv in the kitchen mainly for viewing my amcrest DVR. I also gave up on the amcrest app on my phone.
I have IP Cam Viewer(Lite/basic) the free version on the play store and it works fine with Amcrest camera. for my phone i have the paid version of the app and also own tinyCam PRO.
