Geeni camera live view

To set up a live view of your Geeni camera on your TV, you will first need to download compatible software or use the Geeni app.

Using the Geeni App

Firstly, open the Geeni app on your smartphone or tablet. From the main device list, select the Geeni smart camera you wish to view. This will automatically load your live feed.

Using Software

You can also use software such as iSpy or Agent DVR to access your Geeni camera's live feed. These applications are compatible with Geeni IP cameras and provide a dedicated wizard to simplify the setup process. Additionally, you can take advantage of ONVIF and RTSP compatibility for versatile connection options across different platforms.

Troubleshooting

If you are experiencing issues with your live feed, check your network connection and speed. It may take a few moments for the feed to load, depending on your connection speed.

Geeni camera playback view

To view your Geeni camera playback, you must first ensure that you have a Geeni smart camera with an inserted SD card. The camera records approximately 1GB of storage per day, so a 32GB card can provide weeks of continuous video. As the card fills up, the oldest footage will be replaced by new videos, so you don't need to worry about running out of storage space.

To access the playback view, open the Geeni app on your mobile device and select the Geeni smart camera from the main device list. From there, you can tap on "Playback" and choose the day you want to view. Once you've selected the desired footage, simply tap "Record" to save it to your mobile device's default storage.

It's important to note that the Geeni cameras only work with the Geeni App and voice control by Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. Third-party camera apps are not compatible with Geeni cameras. Additionally, make sure that your mobile device meets the general system requirements, such as running iOS 8 or higher or Android 5.1 or higher, and ensure you are connected to a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network.

Geeni camera connection to TV

To connect your Geeni camera to your TV, you will need to follow a few steps. Firstly, ensure that your Geeni camera is set up correctly and connected to your Wi-Fi network.

For a live view of your Geeni camera, open the Geeni app on your mobile device and select the Geeni smart camera from the main device list. You can then select the camera you wish to view, which will automatically load the live feed.

If you wish to view a playback from your Geeni camera, you will need to insert an SD card into the camera. You can then access the recorded videos via the Geeni app.

Additionally, there are third-party applications that can be used to view your Geeni camera footage on your TV. For example, iSpy or Agent DVR are free software applications that are compatible with Geeni cameras and can be used for remote access and surveillance. These applications can provide a simple setup process and versatile connection options across different platforms.

Geeni camera troubleshooting

If you're having trouble viewing your Geeni camera on your TV, there are several troubleshooting steps you can take to resolve the issue.

First, ensure that your Geeni camera is set up correctly. This involves downloading the Geeni app, registering an account, and adding your camera device via the "Easy Mode" or "Backup QR Code Mode". Make sure your Wi-Fi details are correct and that you're connecting to a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network, as Geeni devices cannot connect to 5GHz networks.

If your camera appears offline or unreachable, verify that your Wi-Fi router is online and within range. Update your Geeni device to the latest firmware, and check for any device updates. Additionally, ensure that your mobile device meets the minimum system requirements for the Geeni app.

If you're still encountering issues, try switching your Wi-Fi router's encryption settings. Geeni cameras may have trouble connecting to certain types of encryption. Change the security settings and try connecting again. You can also try using a different smartphone to connect the camera.

If the problem persists, try restarting your camera and Wi-Fi router. Unplug the power cords, wait for a minute or two, and then plug them back in. If this doesn't work, locate the reset pin on your camera and hold it for a few seconds until you hear a beeping sound.

Finally, if all else fails, attempt to connect your camera using a different Wi-Fi router. Some users have reported that changing the router resolved their connection issues.
