Ip Cam For Machine Vision, Resolution Compatibility

Hey guys, I haven't done this yet , so seeing if anyone has. I have pi ip cameras and you can access their stream I believe through the ip address, but if I have the cam set at 800x600 will ARC scale it down with the drop down box, or do I have to have that ip cam set at the 640x480 or lower? This could same be from using a ez cam and ip cam right beside each other.

The image is resized to the drop down. Please read the camera device manual by pressing the ? (question mark) next to the X (close). It explains more on how to use an ip camera.

You can’t use the stream url, it’ll have to be the jpg snapshot url. These cameras are usually delayed with a buffer as well - mostly due to slower cpu for encoding. I think Alan (techguru) has the most experience with them

They are all a bit different, even with the jpg snapshot. So don’t expect all to work - none of the camera models or manufacturers have standardized in how to deliver their content..
