Is it possible to use VideoCapX with IP cameras?

10/29/2007

 
Yes. You can use VideoSourceURL property to specify direct URL to camera-generated JPG image. VideoCapX automatically refreshes the image up to CaptureRate times in a second.
See "IPCamera" sample in VideoCapX "samples" folder.
 
To specify username and password, use special syntax like:
vcx.VideoSourceURL = "http://username:password@server.com/path/image.jpg"
 
Example:

vcx.VideoDeviceIndex = -2
vcx.VideoSourceURL = "http://atlascam2.colorado.edu/axis-cgi/jpg/image.cgi"
vcx.CaptureAudio = False
vcx.Connected = True
vcx.Preview = True

 

VideoCapX supports MJPEG also.

If your URL contains "mjpg" string , VideoCapX will use MJPEG stream reader.
