Finally opened the box to my DCS-8010LH, bought it about 2 years ago. I bought it because of the HD video, but I didn't realize it doesn't have an ethernet connection. I had to download the stupid mydlink app on my phone to configure the camera, on a router that IS NOT connected to the internet (but my phone is). Basically, the cam configuration is done over Bluetooth LE and I spent hours trying to configure it WITHOUT the mydlink app following this guide:
https://github.com/bmork/defogger (for the 8000LH)
I can connect via BT from the command line with bluetoothctl (ubuntu 18.04) and query the camera, but I couldn't configure it so I downloaded the mydlink app.
Not much info out there but my camera has FW version 1.0 and I was able to grab the rtsp feed with vlc using:
rtsp://IP_OF_CAM/stream1 -- HD
rtsp://IP_OF_CAM/stream2 -- 720p
user: admin
password: admin
You can also grab JPEGs with http://IP_OF_CAM/jpeg.cgi
I'm still working on getting an H264 feed via HTTP.
