@samuelcolvin I became a parent and we bought a Motorola monitor, and the Hubble app is still garbage 🤷‍♂️.
It's tolerable, but there's so much nonsense and poor UX with it that I'd prefer to make a minimalist one myself, basically just the video stream.
Controls for movement would be nice too but optional.

Well I have had this Motorola focus 66-b camera for a while and now got some free time to try somethign on it but as things stand now it seems not posible.

@jacace , here's some random links that are similarly old/outdated but nonetheless kinda helpful for "hacking"/reverse engineering Motorola baby monitors.

I hope someone finds a new streaming solution for this. 03.10.24

Can we not stay on the old Firmware or does it automatically update itself?

@capsload2 You probably could. I've thought about doing that, but don't want to sift through changelogs and figure out if any critical security updates were made in recent versions.

@samuelcolvin
Sorry, I couldn't find anywhere a solution to it so I posted a message about it not working, and I guess some people wondered the same thing while searching online.

@rkdavidson
I bought a Foscam camera (FI9821P) that is configured for LAN/VPN-only access (considering their poor security track record). At least those have an RTSP stream available and the image quality is actually quite good even in night-mode.

Sucks that Hubble requires an Internet middle-man to work.

Any workarounds found? Is there anyway to get this to work via Tinycam Monitor and serve it that way?

Figuring out a way beyond the internet middleman services Hubble requires is beyond my skills :(.

I think a known route would be revert your camera's firmware to factory (or near it), to go back to the fairly insecure (i.e. open) setup outlined in this gist.

Motorola are real ****ards for this. Camera is useless without a paid subscription. Shame because that external antenna on my Focus 66 W was helpful when it worked. Would love to flash custom or original firmware.

I threw mine in the e-waste bin, not giving them a single penny.
