MJPEG Stream In Camera

I am using the ESP32_CAM with a camera stream for MJPEG files.  Code here.  https://github.com/arkhipenko/esp32-cam-mjpeg It runs fine and shows a 320*240 image when I bring up a browser or VLC.  I open the camera control and type in the URL of the stream it generated http://my.cam.ip.xxx/mjpeg/1 (The same one I use in VLC) and the camera initialises but doesn't actually open (The virtual camera lens stays closed) . Anyone else stream mjpeg cameras in? The manual hints there is support.

I recall there was support - but there’s a variety of different ways the stream can be handled.

id have to take a look. Although it kind of game me an idea of an mmpeg plug-in that would handle absolutely every input stream. Hmmm let me put some thought on that

I did a quick search around internet looking for streams but couldnt get any to work so I brought up my own streaming service and couldn't get that to work either.  Just get a JPGStream error on screen.  Also tried ARC on my other PC no joy.

Can you share a url for testing mjpeg? I can't seem to find one using google

I can see the code in ARC - it's there. uses HTTP://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx as the address in the camera control. But I can't test it without an actual source

I am not sure exactly what you are looking for but here is the url for my ESP32 camera stream. This is not the stream I use in ARC. This is the url I use on my phone or pc. If this is not what you are looking for ... sorry!

xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:81/stream I have my port forwarded to 81

@Nink, are you actually able to see those streams? Every one I click on says the webpage isn't available.
