Live streaming from Arlo Pro 2 not working

See original GitHub issue

Please answer these questions before submitting your issue. Thanks!

What version of Python are you using (python -V)?

adam@albatross:/mnt/c/Users/adam/Documents/dev/arlo$ python -V Python 2.7.15rc1

What operating system and processor architecture are you using (python -c 'import platform; print(platform.uname());')?

adam@albatross:/mnt/c/Users/adam/Documents/dev/arlo$ python -c ‘import platform; print(platform.uname());’ (‘Linux’, ‘albatross’, ‘4.4.0-17134-Microsoft’, ‘#706-Microsoft Mon Apr 01 18:13:00 PST 2019’, ‘x86_64’, ‘x86_64’)

Which Python packages do you have installed (run the pip freeze or pip3 freeze command and paste output)?

adam@albatross:/mnt/c/Users/adam/Documents/dev/arlo$ pip freeze arlo==1.2.21 asn1crypto==0.24.0 certifi==2019.3.9 chardet==3.0.4 cryptography==2.1.4 enum34==1.1.6 idna==2.8 ipaddress==1.0.17 keyring==10.6.0 keyrings.alt==3.0 monotonic==1.5 pycrypto==2.6.1 pygobject==3.26.1 PySocks==1.6.8 pyxdg==0.25 requests==2.21.0 SecretStorage==2.3.1 six==1.12.0 sseclient==0.0.24 urllib3==1.24.3

Which Arlo hardware do you have (camera types - [Arlo, Pro, Q, etc.], basestation model, etc.)?

Basestation: VMB4000 4x Arlo Pro 2: VMC4030P

What did you do?

Attempted to run the sample arlo-streamingvideo.py from master

What did you expect to see?

A video file created in the directory of the script

What did you see instead?

The script seems to hang indefinitely and does not output anything to the console or create the video file. Some print debugging shows that it seems to be hanging at url = arlo.StartStream(basestations[0], cameras[0]).

Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?

Yes
