Live viewing - "The request timed out"

philip_rhoades — Mon, 05 Oct 2020 07:55:33 GMT

People,

I mostly view recorded videos and watch live feeds on my Android phone but occasionally it is useful to view stuff from my Linux Fedora desktop computer via the Chrome browser. I haven't done this for a while but now I find I can watch the recorded videos with no problem but when I go to watch a live feed, after about 30 seconds I get "The request timed out" - I am pretty sure that this worked when I first bought the 2 pack kit some months ago but I can't get it to work now - what could have changed? How can I debug the problem?

Thanks,

Phil.

Unfortunately you won't be able to get official support on this since Linux isn't supported. However, the use of a browser should just work - it works here on my Chromebook which is also not supported. Try a different browser. Are you using any sort of Internet security software (it's been a while since I used Linux so I'm not sure what may be available)? Any specific or unusual netwrok configurations either in Linux or your router?

@jguerdat ,

Yes, Vivaldi does work - thanks!
