Adjustable camera display frame rate to keep it real time

My when streaming cameras in HD on my tablet it can’t keep up with the camera frame rate. The result is what I see is up to 25 seconds behind real time and often 5 seconds of video are dropped altogether. I don’t see this on my phone. I’m guessing the difference is the phone GPU has 20 cores, the tablet GPU has 1 core. Their ram size and CPU clocks are similar.

I suggest the Wyze app have the ability to adjust the display rate. A simple way would be to drop every other frame or two of every three frames, whatever it would take for the display to be real time. This could be automatic or a user setting.

The display does stay real time if I change the resolution to 360p but I would much prefer losing time resolution than image resolution.

I no longer use Android devices, I now use iPads mounted on my wall, so I don’t know if the app has the same options as it used to. However, when I used Android and had that problem, it was improved by a setting under Account/App Settings/ and checking the box for hardware acceleration. If that option is still there, give it a try.

That fixed the issue on my new tablet. On my old tablet it helped my V2 and V3 cameras. V4 cameras will connect but only shows the frame when it connects, no stream, unless it’s in 360p.

Yeah, I’ve found that the V4 needs better recourses when running in 2K, both with the device and the WiFi network.
