HTTP URL to get video snapshot
HTTP URL to get video snapshot

One feature that is present on many other manufacturers cameras (FOSCAM, Imou, ...) is the ability to get video snapshot on request via a GET HTTP API like :
http://[ip]:[port]/cgi-bin/CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=snapPicture2&usr=[user]&pwd=[password]
Is it possible to implement that in next firmware ?

@cth35 I would love to see this option. These cameras are almost awesome, this feature would get it that much closer. Frankly, I'm surprised it doesn't already - seems like a basic function of any network connected camera...

@cth35 I wrote a simple script for this with ffmpeg. I tried on Tapo C200 it works perfectly. If you want to check it out. https://github.com/aeminkyr/node-rtsp-snapshot

Same here. Wonder what's needed before an essential feature is build in. I see people asking for 4 years. Guess it can't be that difficult.
What is holding you back?
