Homewatch 0.0.6
This release brings recording playback to Homewatch — a compact clip and
timeline browser, playback that can actually run faster, and playback for
cameras recorded through an NVR — alongside live-audio volume control and
several home-screen refinements.
- Adds a recording playback browser you can switch between a horizontal clip
strip and a 24-hour timeline. It opens in the same window with a consistent
back button and scrolls to the most recent clip first. - Plays recordings from NVR channels by routing the request through the recorder
with the child camera's identifier, so both NVR-backed cameras on the home
screen and channels opened in the NVR view can be played back. - Makes the playback speed control (1×–8×) render faster instead of spinning,
and re-enables the picker. - Fixes replay that stayed black on cameras reporting non-monotonic frame
timestamps by keeping the playback clock steady regardless of what the camera
stamps on each frame. - Adds recording range download for saving a chosen span to disk.
- Lets a home-screen camera flip between viewing through an NVR and connecting
directly, prompting for the camera password only when setting up direct
access. - Adds live-audio volume control with a loudness meter.
- Lets cameras be reordered on the home screen by drag and drop.
- Hides the Preset, Monitor, and More tabs on cameras without pan, tilt, or
zoom. - Smooths the live-to-playback handoff so a camera no longer gets stuck busy,
and stops the camera-clock check from false-flagging across time zones and
daylight saving.
Homewatch remains an independent client. NVR-routed playback reuses the saved
recorder connection and does not copy child-camera passwords or change recorder
settings.
