I am developing an iPhone and an Android app which will connect to the Sony Camera NEX 5T via the Sony Camera API and receive an image being sent from the camera. I downloaded the Sony tutorial from https://developer.sony.com/2013/11/29/how-to-develop-an-app-using-the-camera-remote-api-2/ and tried using it.
I am not able to connect to the camera via the demo app as well as it doesnt locate my camera at all. But if i use, play memories app by Sony, it locates and sends the image in a fraction on a second. I even tried to manually reach the camera via 10.0.0.1/sony/camera but it doesnt connect.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. A working demo from anyone would be highly helpful.
Thanks in Advance
I can suggest a few things to check your setup.
1) Update to latest firmware on the camera (esupport.sony.com)
2) Smart Remote Control app in the NEX-5T camera (latest version is installed?) https://www.playmemoriescameraapps.com/portal/usbdetail.php?eid=IS9104-NPIA09014_00-F00002
3) Latest version of iOS/Android sample applications from Camera Remote API SDK.
4) Start Smart Remote Control app in NEX-5T.
