G-Scope Desktop for Andonstar
Andonstar's PC-compatible models (like the AD207S) work over USB; many HDMI-first models do not expose a live feed. G-Scope Desktop shows exactly what your model provides, and tells you clearly when there is no camera stream.

Frequently asked questions
Does every Andonstar work with the app?
No. And that is the point of the compatibility page. PC-compatible models like the AD207S work through UVC; HDMI-first models often expose no USB camera stream and are documented as such.
Can I use an HDMI-first model on the PC?
Not through USB on models whose port is power/storage only. The app suggests an HDMI capture device or a supported USB model in that case.
Is this the official Andonstar software?
No. G-Scope Desktop is an independent application, not affiliated with Andonstar.
