camera auth

Post by graefe71 »

hello,
i am looking for the possibility to add a new monitor with auth.
i allways found howtos with user:password@ip at the hostname field, but when i try this i got the message, it must be only hostname without http://....

what is wrong? the other way with /path?user=user&pwd=password would not work with my cam, nor with vlc.

with some ip-cam-viewer or e.g. my securityspy with the possibility to give a username and password per cam - the cam works fine.

why zoneminder hasn't just the simple way to define a user and password per monitor?
that would make it much easier to get some cams to work.
i have several cams here working, but all these with no anomymous logins are make trouble to me.
can someone help me with this?
i have now tried all options but do not find a way to rip the "only hostname" message and get the user:password@ip pass to the cam.
