FAQs - Various:

I would like to bypass the login screen of the camera and embed the live video stream directly into my web site. How can that be done?



Live Stream on your web page using ActiveX
Intructions for old camera 550550

For old camera 550550 only! You can view the live stream of your Network IP Camera without connecting to the camera's login page first. That way it is possible to embed the live video stream directly into your web page. Basically you can find the solution in the source code of this very web page. This is the portion of the HTML code which embeds the live video. Simply copy and paste this code into your own web page. <object id='ImagN' width=0 height=0 classid='CLSID:5DA9D8E0-5A57-11CF-9E36-00C0930198C0' CODEBASE = /web/NetCam.cab#version=4,0,0,0> </object> <object id='LNCActiveX' width=320 height=260 classid='CLSID:B53F8B51-D461-4095-9CF0-BDABCCA41DEB' CODEBASE = /web/NetCam.cab#version=1,0,0,36> </object> <script language="JavaScript"> document.LNCActiveX.doVerticalFlip(0); document.LNCActiveX.doHorizontalFlip(0); document.LNCActiveX.CameraIP = "0.0.0.0"; document.LNCActiveX.ImageWidth=320; document.LNCActiveX.ImageHeight=240; document.LNCActiveX.IsBehindFirewall=false; document.LNCActiveX.Id="guest"; document.LNCActiveX.PassWord="guest"; document.LNCActiveX.ImageTransferPort=8080; document.LNCActiveX.expansion=1.0; document.LNCActiveX.maxFrameRate=30; </script> The BLUE parameters have to be adjusted to your camera. Those values are pretty much self-explanatory. However, here're some additional comments for better understanding: doVerticalFlip: Flips image verticallally (0): no image flip (1): vertical image flip doHorizontalFlip: Flips image horizontally (0): no image flip (1): horizontal image flip CameraIP: Replace the IP Address by the IP Address of your camera ImageWidth=320; Controls the Video Width, needs to be changed in <object> tag as well. ImageHeight=240; Controls the Video Height, needs to be changed in <object> tag as well. Id="guest"; Username required to login. If you have disabled the guest account you will need to adjust the value here. PassWord="guest"; Password required to login. If you have disabled or changed the guest account you will need to adjust the value here. ImageTransferPort=8080; Port 8080 is the default value. If you changed the image transfer port of your camera in the network settings you need to enter the new port number here. If you haven't changed anything you must leave the default value. maxFrameRate=30; If you want to limit the bandwidth the camera uses you may reduce the value here. "30" refers to the maximum frame rate of 30 fps. If you change that value to "2" then each visitor of your web page would only receive a maximum of 2 fps (frames per second). Value "0.5" means: 1 frame every other second Value "0.2" means: 1 frame every 5 seconds Value "0.1" means: 1 frame every 10 seonds (example above) Do not use Microsoft Frontpage WebEditor to edit the page as it changes the code which may lead to unexpected results!
