bug: Appium inspector not loading image in android with "appium:mjpegServerPort" from remote host ip

[krishtoautomate]

Is this an issue specifically with Appium Inspector?

• I have verified that my issue does not occur with Appium, and should be investigated as an Appium Inspector issue

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Current Behavior

when user uses capability - appium:mjpegServerPort, appium inspector is not loading image.
Issue only happens when device is connected to remote machine in same network and server is not localhost

Working when server is localhost or 127.0.0.1, but not working with ip-address from same network

*only happening in android

Expected Behavior

appium should load image in appium inspector though user uses appium:mjpegServerPort. if mjpegServer is not working or video url not working it should fall back to default screenshot

Operating System

Mac

Appium Inspector Version

App Version: 2024.6.1 Electron: 13.6.9 Node.js: 14.16.0

Appium Version

2.17.1

Further Information

Could you provide your full Appium server log?

*only happening in android

Do you mean that it works fine when using the XCUITest driver?

[krishpavuluri]

Could you provide your full Appium server log?

*only happening in android

Do you mean that it works fine when using the XCUITest driver?

Yes works fine when using XCUITest driver.

[krishpavuluri]

when i execute additional command, it is working fine:

ncat -lk 0.0.0.0 9100 --sh-exec "ncat 127.0.0.1 9100"

[eglitise]

I can reproduce this issue with just one machine. When starting the Appium server, for me it listed two URLs that could be used to connect to it (127.0.0.1 and 192.168.8.252), so I tried a few options:

• 127.0.0.1 (default placeholder) - stream loads ✔
• localhost - stream loads ✔
• 192.168.88.252 - stream does not load ❌

@mykola-mokhnach could it be that UiA2 does not allow accessing the MJPEG stream using the machine's LAN IP?
I tried to change the assembled MJPEG URL to the default 127.0.0.1 and that fixed it, but naturally this won't work across different machines.

[mykola-mokhnach]

The behaviour is expected. By default adb forwards device ports to localhost only. This is also important from the security perspective.

[krishtoautomate]

In this case, is it possible to add a fall back to default screenshot in appium inspector instead of continuous loader

[eglitise]

@mykola-mokhnach perhaps there is a capability/server flag that would enable forwarding to the LAN IP as well?

[mykola-mokhnach]

@mykola-mokhnach perhaps there is a capability/server flag that would enable forwarding to the LAN IP as well?

There is no such flag out of the box. It could be added as a feature though. The idea would be to duplex the stream currently sent to localhost only, similar to what @krishpavuluri mentioned before. Although, in order to make the solution cross-platform, it shouldn't use command line tools and rely on a pure node.js implementation

[krishtoautomate]

How is it done for apis? Apis are working from using host ip, may be implementation to proxy forward is already available and not applied to mjpeg port

[krishtoautomate]

fall back to screenshot should be added, similar to ios when mjpeg fails
