Please provide a firmware update to enable RTSP and ONVIF support for the Tapo C615F, as well as other battery-powered Tapo cameras.

 

According to Tapo’s explanation, these protocols are currently disabled due to concerns about higher power consumption, which could impact battery life and overall product performance.

 

I would like to better understand the technical mechanism behind how the Tapo C615F uploads video footage to Tapo Care Cloud Storage.

Specifically, I would appreciate clarification on the following points:

 

  • How does the C615F transmit video footage to Tapo Care Cloud Storage without requiring continuous streaming or a constantly active connection?

  • Does uploading footage to Tapo Care Cloud consume less power than transmitting the same footage to a user-owned NAS or local server?

  • If the camera is able to upload video clips to Tapo Care Cloud, does this transmission still require the camera to wake up, encode video, and use Wi-Fi in the same way as other network uploads?

  • Is the difference between cloud upload and local/NAS upload primarily due to the use of proprietary protocols, rather than standard protocols such as RTSP or ONVIF?

 

From a technical perspective, uploading video data should require similar power consumption regardless of whether the destination is Tapo Care Cloud or a private cloud/NAS.

 

I would like to understand whether this limitation is related to power management, protocol design, or product policy.

 

I look forward to a detailed technical explanation.
