Help with D-Link 5029L Setup

After much waiting I finally have my v2 Hub and want to set up this camera. I have it connected to the app and I can see videos if I hit the play button under things. So far so good.
I am in a rural area and must use a cellular modem so I want to limit data. Instead of video I would like to have the camera take still photos. The photoburst smart app looks perfect but it won’t recognize my camera. Under take a burst of photos and Which? there is nothing listed when I click the red plus mark.

How can I get SmartThings to perform this action and How can I get ST to recognize the motion sensor in the camera. It doesn’t show up as an option anywhere.

Thanks!

It is kind of confusing but the SmartThings Dlink devicetype doesn’t have the “Image Capture” capability as far as I know it only has “Video Camera” and “Video Capture” which are for live video in the app and video clip recording. To use the photoburst you would need a devicetype with “Image Capture”. You can try the Generic Camera Device with it and see if it works how you want.

I think that they will be adding more capabilities to the supported cameras in a while but who knows at this point.

Thanks for the response, This may be above my ability to figure out. I was hoping it would be more turnkey with V2 hub.

I’m having this exact issue.

Is there a way to copy the ST device type and add image capture?

Any updates? I’m going to send a ticket to ST support.
