This SmartApp will allow you to install and manage multiple D-Link Camera Devices.Finally, a one-stop shop for all of your D-Link IP camera needs.
I have created these devices in order to add additional functionality to existing supported D-Link cameras and to add compatibility for many that are not natively supported. All cameras feature In-App Video streaming, snapshots and the ability to toggle motion detection. Some cameras support much much more, see the feature and compatibility chart below!
If you don't see a camera on the list that you would like me to add; feel free to leave a comment below and I will work to incorporate it!

##Camera Installation Tips/Tricks:
- The Camera IP and Camera Port are your local HTTP IP and Port for the camera
- The Video IP and Video Port can be either the local or external IP and Port for the camera
- For Cameras that only support video (no audio) use the HTTP IP/Port
- Default HTTP port is 80
- For Cameras that support both video and audio use the RTSP IP/Port
- Default RTSP port is 554
- If you use an internal VideoIP/Port you will only be able to view video either while on the local network or by using a VPN
- If you use an external VideoIP/Port you will need to set up Port Forwarding on your router
- WARNING: By using Port Forwarding you are opening your camera to the internet, this can open it up to unauthorized access by people outside of your network.
- The Camera User and Camera Password are the Username/Password used to log into the camera's advanced settings through a web browser.
- The Camera Presets are the preset number of views that you have already set up in the D-Link camera advanced settings.
- Smart Security Camera - Allows your camera to follow where the action is and take pictures/video!
- Smart Night Vision - Tie your camera's night vision to a switch/dimmer so that you always know it's in the correct mode.
