IP CAM (IR) with MPG4

Post by tux »

I have one of these for a few days for testing if it runs with zoneminder:

IP CAM only streams in MPEG4 (no MJPEG)
Day/Night Internet Camera Server with IR.
Good image, CCD sensor.
Cheap CAM if comparing with axis similar cams (about 360 $)

Is posible runs with zm a IP CAM (MPEG4)?
I searching path IMAGE.CGI, VIDEO.CGI and I dont´know what is path for stream.

thanks[/img]

Yes only support MPEG4. (no jpeg/mjpeg)
Is a mistake because the quality is good day and night.

thanks

Hopefully 1.22.1 will have support for this kind of camera. I've got to stop myself from adding stuff to 1.22.0 for long enough to get that out first though.

You have to have a feature freeze at some point to work out all the bumps. If Phil adds to much then it might be hard to iron out with out putting in a new wrinkle :wink:

i know Corey, I was just saying there is no rush for 1.22 as 1.21.4 is very stable so 1.22 will be nice but not essestial like if it wasnt stable ;-)

There are anothers ip cams that support mjpeg and mpeg format, in config can select video stream method.

I prefer Mjpeg but All news axis products have MPEG/MJPEG format.

http://www.axis.com/products/video/came ... tguide.htm
AXIS 207 AXIS 207W AXIS 210 AXIS 210A
AXIS 211* AXIS 211A* AXIS 221*
AXIS 225FD AXIS 230*
AXIS 211* AXIS 211A* AXIS 221*

Only AXIS 206 AXIS 206M suports MJPEG and noMPEG mode.

I have an old product compraison guide form axis (I think is from October 2004) and only 5 models have MJPEG/MPEG.

Hi.

Sounds great! This means that MPEG4 cameras support will be finally added in the next version?

Yes, in theory. It all depends on me being able to decipher enough of the stream decoder stuff in the ffmpeg libraries to actually get it working. Plus getting access to actual streams to try it out on.

I have such a camera and would like to have it supported. I can give you the connection details to the stream.
