It is a little snappier at failing It has exactly the same behavior even down to distorting the one video in exactly the same way and not wanting to record any B&W recordings. That has only been when messing around with video or trying to record things, never in live view, but still pretty amateurish. The app has crashed on me many times as well. The error that the app gives when I try to record a recorded B&W videos is: "Error Saving Video - There was a problem recording the video." Also if I take a snapshot the distortion is there. That is not in the recorded video viewed on ACC but it is always there when viewed on the iPhone. One video show decking boards all smeared vertically. It also sometimes distorts features in the B&W video. I say "sometimes" as I was able to save recordings of the recordings that I took in daylight but for some reason I can't do it for recordings that are in B&W. You can also (sometimes) record while playing back recorded files (so a recording of your recording, if you will). You can also take a snapshot during the playback of recorded images and that works fine. So, you won't be doing and "analysis" of the recorded video but you can play it. You can drag it forwards but it then jumps back to near the beginning (but not the beginning - odd) and starts from there instead. If you drag it back, for instance, it just spins for 5 seconds or so and then displays that image and begins loading (at the 5-10 sec interval) again. You can pause and resume, and you can drag the slider back but that doesn't really work due to the time it takes to load the images. It is quite slow, displaying a series of images about every 5-10 seconds until it gets all the way through the recording. If you touch the file in the list it will bring up the recording and begin to load the images. If you hit the ">" in the display it shows you more details, where it is recorded (ie, SD_DISK) start time, stop time, the event that caused it and a few other datum. It shows the time of the recording, the date and duration. You can hit the recordings button (a camera reel icon) and it will take you to a list of your recordings. It brings up REC in red on screen but either on it's own, or after I hit the record button again, it complains that "Camera Companion - Error starting/stopping recording." No matter what I try this just doesn't work. ![]() You can also record a video of the live view, though apparently, at least on my iPhone and iPad, that is broken. You can take a snapshot of what is in the live view which it saves to your photo album. It was able to connect to the camera and display the live view. I logged it into the same account I set up for ACC. So, I bought the Viewer for AXIS Camera Companion By EyeSpyFX for $9 from the App Store and installed is on my iPhone 4S and iPad. ![]() ![]() In the interest of the community I decided to learn from the mistakes of others by repeating them myself. ![]()
