I have a foscam i am considering using for zero rover. 8910 pan and tilt model. I need to be able to both access the video stream live and record as well. I can access it through the network by directly typing in the web ip in the local network 198.168.1.12 and view the cam but im having a problem accessing it through anykind of other software. Help? Thanks

HTTPGet() along with the URL for pan/tilt control works
I'm not sure of the exact urls as they are on my laptop which is currently out of action but use a sniffer tool to look up what urls are being called when using the buttons in the foscam web ui. Fiddler is what I used.
@rich, again, thank you
@pacowang , playing with images inside ARC. I don't actually have my robot yet (stage 4 and tracking on DHL), but totally fascinated by the potential.
@Rich , It's not bragging if you can back it up. I have several of your posts and checked out your web page already. Great stuff.
Jarvis intrigued me because I used a python program on rPi to run a halloween video display. I love open API tools, and will be looking into that after I get my bot running.
