I want to use your app to switch ON/OFF the night vision on my Tapo C310 camera. I have installed Go into C:\Program Files and made a batch file called Tapo.bat in my Documents folder that contains the following lines:

go run github.com/KusoKaihatsuSha/appgotapo@v1 -host address: 192.168.1.66 -u Conservatory -p ******** -do "night_on"
timeout /t 5 /nobreak >nul

The batch file appears to run ok, waits 5 sec then closes. However, on the Tapo iPhone app, the night vision mode remains on Daylight mode.

Can you please point me to where I might be doing something wrong.

Thank you.

EDIT:
Got it working with:
go run github.com/KusoKaihatsuSha/appgotapo@v1 -host=192.168.1.66 -u admin -p ******** -do "night_on"

Is there an appgotapo.exe that can be used if offline? I would like to be able to run standalone, ie:

appgotapo.exe -host=192.168.1.66 -u admin -p ******** -do "night_on"

Is this possible?

EDIT2:
Found appgotapo_windows_amd64.exe. Now works perfectly.

Many thanks for this.

The following command was working fine up until about 3 days ago:

.\appgotapo.exe -host="192.168.x.x" -u="admin" -p="tapoPassword" -do="move:10_0"

"tapoPassword" in the command above is my Tapo cloud account's password and not the local RTSP account's password.

The camera's firmware has not been updated recently and the command was not modified.

Since the issue started, the following error is displayed any time the command is run.

To clarify, this exact setup has been working perfectly until 3 days ago.

Authenticate failed. Try use another cred. login - "admin", password - your password in Tapo account.
App will be trying with "admin" with next operation(if your pass on rtsp equal pass your account). If next operation exist.

I don't think it's a coding problem, maybe the problem is me, being the first time trying to run go.
When i try to execute your script it shows this info in the terminal:

go run appgotapo -host address:553 -u username -p password -do "night_on"
package appgotapo: cannot find package "appgotapo" in any of:
        /usr/lib/go-1.13/src/appgotapo (from $GOROOT)
        /home/x/go/src/appgotapo (from $GOPATH)

I am trying to connect to a tapo externally by your code.
could you help me?

Appgotapo is not able to log in to the camera since the camera firmware was updated to the latest firmware in Dec 2023. Are you able to supply a fix for this?

Firstly, this is a great utility for managing a Tapo camera

There is a small documentation issue

Private mode options are reversed to documentation (at least on a C210)

on turns camera on ( so turns off private mode)
off turns camera off ( so turns on private mode)
