Onvier – IP Camera Monitor Mod is an Android app for viewing and managing IP cameras. It supports ONVIF devices as well as non-ONVIF cameras that provide RTSP or MJPEG streams, with controls and viewing options for working with a camera system.
Which camera types and streams does it support?
The app supports ONVIF-compatible network video transmitters and cameras, and can connect to non-ONVIF cameras through generic RTSP or MJPEG streams. The description says ONVIF compatibility may cover more than 5,000 NVT devices; that figure does not guarantee compatibility with every device. RTSP over HTTP is also supported and is described as a way to access streams through firewalls without complex port configurations.
Can it discover cameras and show device information?
Onvier includes discovery for ONVIF devices. It can also explore device properties, providing information about connected cameras and options for managing or configuring them. These features are intended for users working with discoverable ONVIF equipment; the source does not specify discovery support for generic RTSP or MJPEG cameras.
What camera controls are available?
For cameras with pan, tilt, and zoom functionality, the app provides PTZ controls. The description also mentions digital PTZ for non-PTZ cameras in the Pro version, so that particular control is not described as part of the standard feature set.
How can camera views be arranged?
Multi-view can display multiple cameras on one screen. A snapshot preview widget provides a quick way to access video streaming, and portrait and landscape viewing are supported. These options address different viewing layouts and device orientations without changing the camera stream types the app supports.
Does it record video?
The app is described as recording video in MP4 format, with H.264 video encoding and AAC audio encoding. The source does not give further recording details, such as storage requirements or recording controls, so those should not be assumed from the listed format and codecs.
