Dear all,

I post here the same post on the Sming GitHub repo.

"i'm just playing with Sming and wanted to control my GoPro Hero 3. I can connect to it
but I cannot forward messages.

I've founded the gopro commands and I'm implementing this:

HttpClient goPro as main object

than after connectionOK

goPro.downloadString("http://10.5.5.9/bacpac/SH?t=MYPASSWORD&p=%01",onDataSent);

but nothing happens. The string is correct and if I paste it on Chrome I can take a shot.
What I'm doing wrong?

Sorry if it sounds stupid, maybe I need to get more into Sming."


In addition I need to implement a mechanism where the ESP remains sleeping, it wake up, send the message and come back to sleep.

Any suggestions will be much appreciated.

Thanks

anybody can help me? I'm becoming mad

My opinion - you need do POST request to your GoPro.

I haven't used the Sming framework but I'm successfully controlling my gopro using GET commands and this httpclient library.

Hope that helps!
