That does seem to be Ingenic SoC based (which is what Thingino supports). One neat thing about openipc is that it supports a huge range of SoC. Example link. h

- cnst 1y agoI think the biggest difference I could see is that OpenIPC targets Europe as its main market, whereas thingino is US/Canada and is easier to get started with. Honestly, I couldn't find a single Amazon ASIN for anything listed on OpenIPC. It's not much help for them to support more devices if none of those are being imported into the US. Compare to thingino, which has support for Wyze, Eufy, Wansview, Cinnado, Imou, TP-Link and lots of other brands which are officially imported into the US and are best-sellers in their respective categories on Amazon, with the free Fulfilled-by-Amazon shipping.
- jauntywundrkind 1y agoOpenIPC notably doesn't list products & things you can buy. Their "supported hardware" is what chipsets they support! It's up to you to go "do the research" or whatever to find out what cameras that might be! I've bounced hard off OpenIPC in the past for this reason. That said I think the hikvision I bought a couple years ago is supported.
- cnst 1y agoI've looked at the OpenIPC sponsors. It looks like there's a huge market in Eastern Europe to install a camera at the entrance to your apartment building, and then charge your neighbours for camera access as a value-added service, e.g., a shared intercom. Also, to keep an eye on the shared courtyard (dvor24). Pretty ingenious, if you ask me!
- esseph 1y agoOpenIPC lists SoCs, and it lists SoCs used by the Wyze cameras. I just looked mine up.
- wltechblog 1y agoSince Thingino targets retail devices at the top level rather than components, when you install our firmware you get an image made specifically for your device. We can give you easier installation methods than using a flash programming in many cases, and once your camera is flashed, all of its functions work out of the box. Also, by focusing on the Ingenic platform, you can be assured that your camera will actually work once installed. That was not my experience with OpenIPC.
