Raspberry Pi Connect • How to use rpi-connect and view rpicamera images/videos via Remote access (RPIConnect)

Hello,

I have what i term 2 significant issues with RPI Connect they are:-

The rpi-connect on command does not transcend a power off or reboot etc this have raised under the following post:-viewtopic.php?t=381014.

I am raising this issue to deal with the 2nd issue: How, using RPI Connect, do I access a camera on a remote RPI installed with RPIos Lite on an RPI2 W??.

All attempts clearly lead me to believe it is not possible unless you are using the Desktop GUI on the remote, which seems to be a waste of resources, ie I need to get RPi4 or 5 to enable the OS to work last any level of reliability in order for the system to be of any use? or have I got it all wrong please???

I am still learning RPi OS but genuinely want to learn and at present, I am using this RPI Zero with the RPICAM to facilitate that.

There is a way I can achieve my results but I think I will need to get into some Python3 code, which will have to run on both systems, negating the use of RPI Connect???

Any help with constructive suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
JohnW
