Linudix LWJ-530SF

Post by JCvanDoorn »

I have searched the forum and the HCLs, but cannot find any information on my camera. I have Linudix LWJ-530SF IP Camera (http://www.linudix.com/2007/product/lwj-530sf.html) and would love to be able to link it to ZoneMinder. Just in case you want to see it, this is the manual for the camera: ftp://121.190.159.202/pub/manual/lwj530 ... al_Eng.pdf

I have however no idea how to do it. It's capable of MJPEG and MPEG-4, but through IE it uses a plugin. I was able to link it to Intertraff MMS-DVR without any trouble, so I hope it will be able to be used with ZoneMinder as well.

Can you help me in configuring the camera?
If you need an additional information, please let me know and I'll do my absolute best to provide it as soon as possible :)

I've contacted Linudix.....if I hear anything I'll let you know

It appears it may support RTSP so you might try 1.24

Thank you very much! They (Linudix) say they can provide the API as well. Not that it would do me much good, but perhaps it can be useful for the users here.

Is there any idea yet on when v1.24 is released?

Shrug..probably not for months. Really depends on Phil and his time to work on a free project. Donations always help getting him motivated to work on releases :)

I think I'm asking against my better judgement, but did you hear anything from Linudix Support?

Nope. If they had a US number I would call them.

What exactly do you want to know from them? I could try and get that information from them. Perhaps they'll answer me, since I'm a paying customer.

Basically if they provide MJPEG stream without ActiveX or a JPEG snapshot.

OR if they support RTSP (ask if you can use VLC player or quicktime to access the camera)

If they support RTSP you would have to use 1.24
