We have this camera, model HC-V550M which can stream live via WiFi to an Android smartphone.
The application used on the phone is ImageApp, download link here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.panasonic.avc.cng.imageapp&hl=en
In case you want to download it on a computer, use this tool: http://apps.evozi.com/apk-downloader
in the input field paste this: com.panasonic.avc.cng.imageapp
then click "Generate download link" and then the "Click here to download...." green button.
I could take the WiFi log of the connection between Camera and ImageApp, in a file using WireShark,
so we have the data logging between - Mobile App and Camera.
This includes command to Camera , response of Camera , and Streaming data.
So we know that it's Video & Audio streaming data over UDP
and we know the HTTP commands, too; we know IP address and the Port used.
Camera is returning - OK response to HTTP command
But after starting the Streaming... when I try to rec. over the - UDP using VLC, I am unable to get stream, as it's not showing in VLC.
I can't capture in VLC by any means and don't know why.
We have tried many the commands...but it seems it doesn't follow the standard patterns.
I also tried to reverse engineer the ImageApp code, but maybe didn't do well enough.
I can provide the WireShark file for reference, but can't provide the camera itself :)
in case you are interested in the job, please let me know and I will send the file.
You can bid after you decide if you can do it or not.
Thanks
