See videostream items in
WEB.conf, e.g.
Code: Select all
videostream.Web,webcams=cam1,http://192.168.1.84:8082/

If you're on Windows and the webcam is directshow-compliant, you can try the
jumpy capture script. But first see if it shows up as a directshow device by opening a command window in the UMS
win32 folder and running ffmpeg:
Code: Select all
ffmpeg -list_devices true -f dshow -i dummy
.

Anyone get this to work? I am having some issues. I have an IP Camera and want it to show on my SmartTV (Philips) . The renderer works for the images I am sharing on my network but I really want to access my IP Camera. It has and IP address of 192.168.2.150 and uses port 4800. It is also needing to pass a username and password. I am new to this, but have figured out how to add this to the web.conf file. But I must not be getting the format correct yet. I get a "Unrecognized File Type" message when I try to access it on my TV. Is UMS a good choice for being able to access my IP Camera as well as my media? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Everything I have found is vague...
I believe I am trying to use the FFMPEG file format from Foscam, but maybe I am more lost than I realize-
No log submitted here as I don't see that it would really be helpful yet. Just trying to figure this out!
Thank you!

The log is useful because it shows us what actually happens. I don't know much about WEB.conf, but this does depend on what protocol and format the stream is.
FFmpeg isn't a file format, it's a very popular media converter:

You should open a new thread and post debug files as described.
