hi guys
i have just been reading dlink website and it says my cameras (dcs2100+) only work with activex (no java).
does this mean i have to scrap them and get different cams? or is there a way around it?
thanks

Not necessarily. As long as there is a url you can use to get the images you can use them with ZM. Search the forums to see if anyone has posted the path to use. You should need neither ActiveX nor Java.

I tested this camera about hlaf a year ago and despite a whole week of fiddling I nor a couple of pros at my office, could not find a way around the Active X.
There were no webpaths we could find,
According to D-Link support this camera only works with Active X and IE > 5.1 or their own Windows software

You can use:
http://<user>:<pass>@<camera address>/cgi-bin/video.jpg to get images.
Remote Host Name is "<camera address>" or "<user>:<pass>@<camera address>" if you are using authentication.
Remote Host Path is "/cgi-bin/video.jpg"
Make sure the path is EXACTLY as above.
Personally I would avoid the D-Link in future. How can they sell a device with embedded Linux and not support a Linux client...?!
