Why?
The embedded web server for most Chinese based Camera are pure sh*t. 

And if you're on a Mac, you don't even have the option to install the sketchy flash plugin for Internet Explorer. 

I've managed to use the javascript libraries from the camera to render video on a canvas, but it's all done over http and ws, unsecured. 

Every time I try to make something that will allow other people to use it, I run into road blocks. CORS, HTTPS, WSS, AUTH.... 

So, I made a simple chrome extension. 

It will:  
- work while you're logged into the camera's embedded web server. (192.168.xxx.xxx)
- protect your privacy - won't ask for your credentials 
- make the video full screen
- enables PTZ control via keyboard (<-- this is awesome)
- centers camera position where ever you click

Lots of additional functionality coming:
- Play h265 video directly from the device (/sd)
- SET/CALL commands
- Command macros, so you don't need to remember all the weird codes
- On screen PTZ controls, semi-transparent overlay

Also, if you just want a simple interface w/o this extension, try visiting your camera at /mobile.html

*PLEASE DON'T LEAVE BAD RATINGS. I'm offering this for free. 
If it doesn't work for you, send me an email and maybe I can help you out.
Or just uninstall it and have a nice day!
