Re: Nest adjusts internet settings and breaks BI

Hey, I found the below on ipcamtalk. It makes sense. See if this works for you and please let me know either way....
The RTMPS URL can be determined using Microsoft Edge. Go to your public link from the Nest camera in Edge. Right click on the video stream in Edge and go to inspect element. Copy the entire https URL. It should look something like this: "stream-us1-alfa.dropcam.com/nexus_aac/Unique Identifier"
You will need to remove the suffix after nexus. You then go into BI and select RTMPS and paste the URL. The corrected URL looks like this: "stream-us1-alfa.dropcam.com/nexus/Unique Identifier"
The quotes that I put in don't need to be included (I put them there because the forum is changing the links to something strange).
From reading other posts, it appears that Google removed the RTMPS URL section recently, but you can still use the same modified URL that they give you that is HTTPS.
I hope that this makes sense. If you have any questions just let me know.
