Will Pay for assistance
« on: September 27, 2013, 03:45:30 PM »
I don't have a lot of time to achieve this and I already have a post on the forum.  I just need some professional help configuring my camera to view live video through my website. I'm experimenting with a free program called BroadCam but I'm getting hung up on the ip address to use. I tried taking the one right from Live View but it didn't work. I know your time is valuable so please let me know if you can assist me.
Thanks!

Did you enable your port, and using your IP address?

google "What is my IP address" and they will tell you.

This is probably where I'm having all the troubles. I'm using Centruylink (DSL) router and forwarded port 80. Will I be using my main IP address with :80 or the one that was created when I set up the camera (192.168.X.XX)? It's not a static IP if that helps any.

Just use your external ip address (not the internal 192.168.X.X IP) without specifying port 80 as that is redundant because port 80 is the default http port number.

Since it is not a static ip address, you could use dynamic DNS services such as noip.com. Or you could just check and update your ip address manually everytime you get a new ip.

As for embedding it on your website. A quick solution is to use the MJPEG stream coming from the ip camera and enclosing that in an image tag like this:

Quote
<img src="http://IP_ADDRESS/video/mjpg.cgi">

The downside to this is that IE does not support MJPEG streaming. Chrome and Firefox supports it natively. A workaround for IE is to install the Google Chrome Frame plugin for IE.
