I've been using Camect to connect and record all my Wyze cams for years, but have always struggled to find a way to show live feeds on my smart home wall panels (Amazon Fires running Sharptools dashboards).  I had used TinyCam Pro to create a webserver in the past, but I feel like it's conflicting with Camect, and cameras are constantly disconnecting/dropping/not connecting on demand. Is this a known/expected issue? Is there any way I could broadcast the Camect feed within my local network to these tablets and just ditch TinyCam altogether? Thanks!

I was wondering why you wouldn't just run the Camect Viewer app on the tablet -- I assume that's because you want to have other stuff from your dashboard on the screen at the same time? 

Some of the Wyze cam models only allow you to have one video stream open at a time, and others allow one stream per user. I suspect you may be running into a variant of this problem. 

So, if you happen to be using the same set of credentials as your Camect hub with tinycam, try making them distinct. If that doesn't solve the issue you're probably out of luck as you can't have two things streaming at the same time.
