Web Cams and UMS

Post by DeFlanko »

A place holder thread for discussion on development and ideas on how to show live streams of CCTV IP based webcams that are local in your own network through UMS.

I think the concept is simple enough... most IP based web cams output in the form of MJPEG, or H.246 video; just trying to capture that video feed and use UMS as a form of Media Exchange

-- whats a good driver that USM uses to accepts Inputs?

as far as i know Jumpy and the web.conf

thoughts?

FOSCAM: http://www.camera-sdk.com/p_173-how-to- ... onvif.html <-- pretty extensive resouce of cameras and how to connect to them.

For testing i'm going to try the below first in the web conf.

Great topic deflanko. I started to experiment a little with xupnpd on a Raspi (so a live stream can be announced as a DLNA stream apicked up by standard renderers with no native IPTV capabilities). Will surely share my results once I get it working...
