Sunday
Model: Tapo C325WB  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version:

I had been receving "you have reached your device limit for playing this video".

I read Tapo APP allows only one device to view playback at the same time.

 

Is this really how it's designed?

  • Each camera also supports up to 2 simultaneous video streams. You could use up to 2 devices to view the live feed of the camera simultaneously using the Tapo App or via RTSP. You may also only view the playback of a camera using one Tapo app at a time.

 

If you need consistent playback across multiple devices, you may want to look towards some sort of NVR or proxy server that would make use of the networked RTSP/ONVIF video stream, as this would use the second stream and that service/app may be able to be viewed from additional devices at one time.

 

Each stream from the camera puts a load on the cameras computing power, so it is better to limit the function of the camera so that it will funtion as expected. If additional views are needed, the second stream exists to allow this type of connection without impacting the normal function of the camera.
