I can't get my IP cams to show in ARC. These are MJPEG cameras so it should work I guess. EZB initializes the parameters but nothing shows in the window. Here are the parameters :
http://192.168.0.177:8081/video.cgi?user=correctuser&pwd=correctpassword
when i type this in Chrome or IE it works.
Any clue ? Someone ?
When you paste the URL in your web browser, do you see a single image? Or do you see a video stream?
Hello DJ ! I feel like God is talking to me now !
I just have a black screen with a big red error message "JPGStream Read Error.
:) Flattery will get you everywhere!
When you view the URL in your web browser, what do you see (video or image)? For example, you mentioned the link works in a web browser (internet explorer, firefox, safari, chrome, etc).
I'll need to know if you see a video in the web browser, or a single image.
Going by the list on ISpyConnect's Website videostream.cgi will be in FFMPEG or MJPEG snapshot.cgi will be jpeg IPAddress:554/11 will be VLC
A little more searching on google (yes I needed a break from what I'm doing that badly) you could try IP:port/tmpfs/auto.jpg
Oh Sorry DJ I misunderstood the question : In the browser I see the video with video.cgi or videostream.cgi and a snapshot with snapshot.cgi commands. Currently my cat Bobby is ashing himself.
Since I need an IP Cam and they are all practically the same price I went for this make/model and ordered one last night, it should be with me tomorrow or Saturday hopefully. Once it turns up I'll hopefully be able to find the correct url and syntax for use in ARC.
I'm not too familiar with Safari, but can you save the image that is shown in the browser? Most are right click and save image as. If you can it's a single jpg and it's what you want for ARC (if I have interpreted what DJ said in the other topic correctly).
If not, hang in there for a couple of days and I'll have mine and I'll see what I can find when I have the device in front of me to hack
that looks just like a foscam,i have 4 foscam and love then very cheep
From what I've seen online when searching for cheap IP cams they all look the same, my guess is they are just re-branded.
@Pittom, did you ever get yours going in ARC?
