I have a Gadspot N1250 IP camera which is directly connected to my local network.
My HTC is also connected to the same network which means there is no firewall between 2 devices.
I am trying to access the camera's video stream through my HTC Hermes.
I can access the administration web page of the camera with URL :
http://192.168.254.25
I can login through that page but the camera view does not show up.
On PC, after logging in I can see the Video stream with an ActiveX component which is directly installed to my IE over the cam's web page.
I can also reach the IP cam video stream using VLC player with a URL like:
rtsp://192.168.254.25:554/video.mp4
But neither with Pocket IE , nor with Pocket Media Player I couldn't reach following urls:
rtsp://192.168.254.25:554/video.mp4
http://192.168.254.25
I am looking for any solution (new software, URL) to reach the IP cam.
Can anyone advise me what to do ?
Thanks.
It also works through Windows Media Player with URL:
rtsp://192.168.254.25:554/video.3gp
But I still could not find a URL for WM6.
Any guess ?
Hi!
I have a N1250 wireless IP Camera, however after installing it, I have a black screen when running it with IE6 (Win XP ScePK2) and typing the Cam IP address on the address bar.
I allowed/enabled all the active x scripts on Tools/Options IE, but it is still a very nice black screen!!. I'm using a wireless router Linksys.
As a note the active x that came with the cd was already installed.
I tried FireFox and Netscape, but they seem to be worse: there is no camera screen at all! all the page is white.
So what to do next??
Anyone has an idea??
do you see it on PC ?
I mean where is the blank scren problem ?
On PC or on HTC ?
HTC Video Ip cameras
Mrmrmrmr,
Had the same issue a while years back. We internally needed to see different cameras , behind firewalls , multiple locations, password protected,corporate VPN's, PTZ etc. So we built it into a product that did more than just cameras, but it was for internal use only.
We have finally recieved the ok to release the camera only version. The geeks in this group get to help this community out.
This release will always have a free IP camera input. One to see your favorite petcam, your childs daycare center, your favorite beach cam, your home/office security IP cam etc.

Please let us know if this helps. Also which phones you had good success with or tested it with.
Thx
Thanks; I will try this asap.
Hi L4z3r,
I'e tried your software but it seems that it does not have support for my camera.
I use a Gadspot N1250 which supports mjpeg but I couldn't connect to the camera neither by http://192.168.254.25 nor http://192.168.254.25/index2.htm
I also tried rtsp link to the cam but nothing happened.
interestingly, the software does not pop up any error messages.
Just nothing.
On HTC P3450 doesn't work and with the complete url too

The URL needs to be the full URL to the image location itself and not the page that it appears on, sorry for any confusion. The README should contain the appropriate steps, but basically go to the page on your computer where the JPG or MJPEG stream is viewable, right click the image and select properties. This should bring up a information box with the full url of the image (should in .jpg, .mjpg, or something similar; although I have seen it as a .cgi but I had to view the page source to find that one, .cgi usually lets you pass parameters such as video size you want it). But if it's not a Axis or Panasonic, you will need to enter the full URL of the image location, select "Other" for camera manufacture, and make sure it's the appropriate stream type (MJPEG is handled differently than JPEG). If it is an Axis or Panasonic, please do not enter the image location, just do the IP or DNS name (192.168.0.100 or yourdnsname.com:8080 (this is how you do a camera who is set up on a different port than the standard 80)).
I have seen a problem with larger images, like ones that are ~640x480 or larger. rollins2, if you could let me know what type of camera you are using, I can try to help more. Plus if we see a lot of demand for a type of camera, we may be able to add support for it.
Hope this helps, and please do read the README, it has some helpful tips on getting started with the app.
In case anyone is still interested, I also have a gadspot camera N1250 and was trying to figure out running it on my cell phone for years. I had a second kid born this week and put up the camera in his room and finally was able to stream it and view still images from my nokia phone. The still images are ran with the standard phone web browser. However, the streaming is running via realplayer that was included with the phone, using your method similar to rtsp://192.168.254.25:554/video.3gp.
I think any phone with a realplayer will be able to play the streaming video since it usually works with windows.
That being said, the above method does not work on Windows Media Player for some reason, however, I am fine streaming with EI.
Moved you over from rom dev to software.
Peace

I have a Nokia E71. How do you call that URL from the phone ?
what about user authentication ?
Not sure if this solution will work on Android lower than Android 2.3.3 as not tested.
As you know, the Linksys WVC54GC uses a Microsoft mp4 video stream not supported in apps such as the great IP Cam viewer.
But if you are a cheapskate like me, and you dont want to just throw it away, here is a simple solution to use it...
Set up your camera on your network without user access passwords (admin passwords still OK)
Install MoboPlayer (may work with other players such as RockPlayer lite but again not tested... Try it and Report in this thread!!)
Go to Internet Browser and type in (your.cam.address/img/video.asf)
You will get a pop-up asking to play online or download, select Play online, then another may come up asking which program to use if you have more than one video player installed, select MoboPlayer (or the one you want to try). If you get the working image, the next time you select the video player, you can tick the bottom box to use this by default.
If you save the initial address as a bookmark in the Internet Explorer (long press on it in history), you can even put a shortcut on your home screen to give a direct connection to the camera from now on...
Enjoy.
Linksys WVC54GC camera on iphone solution found!
I've been able to successfully use my two old wvc54gc cams using an app called "Oplayer" by Jonathan Young.
I simply typed in the url _ttp://X.X.X.X/img/video.asf or _ttp://username[email protected]:1024/img/video.asf and it will buffer to almost 100% percent before it starts viewing, takes me about 10-15 seconds to load, and can live with it.
I found another solution using an app called "orb live" but is a bit teadous and prefer using Oplayer.
Hope it helps those still hanging on to those devices are wish to pull them out of the closet .
Hi -
I need to be able to control my Transformer Prime. I have tried
VNC servers (multiple ones). I've tried every remote control daemon in the store, and a few paid ones.
Problem is as follows - they all allow me to connect, however the screen (even after changing and trying every possible setting on my client, including embedded Java software). EVERYTHING yields the below image. I tried turning off and on every single option in the server and client, and tried various other software. All of it seems to be reading the wrong screen pointer...
The 2nd screen shot is from an expensive Smartdog product. I tried the relay mode but results were identical.
I submitted logs to the developers, but maybe someone here can write a simple, working vnc daemon for us Prime 4.0.3 x.x.x.21 folks.
Has anyone ran into this problem and how does one solve it? I literally tried everything, including making sure the screen never turns off, etc. I get the same results, a green version of the boot screen twice across my VNC viewer. I killed a day trying to figure it out no closer than I began.
Any ideas from people?
Much obliged in advance - You guys have saved my arse several times already!
.21 I made sure the root was kept.
Hope someone can help

This is obvious because the app capture images from screen buffer, however, some models, such as yours, no longer user frame buffer device for rendering.
There are several servers, including at least one in the market, and one I helped develop that will work with rooted transformers (I have a TF201).
Here is a link to the one I work on:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1476648
Near the end of that thread is a link to one of the servers in the market that seems to also work, but I have not personally tried it.

I imagine the particular posters have found answers to their problems seeing as this thread
dates from 2014 but I thought it might be worthwhile answering all the same as I ran in to the same niggles when I began using this app so if anyone searching these issues subsequently may find some worth from my reply.
First of all as a far as experience and knowledge is concerned. Firstly with cars;fixing,modifying, engine management tuning, obd2, diagnostics. Basically my auto knowledge is extremely wide and extensive from approx 35 years of obsession and getting stuck in an the deep end whereas my knowledge and experience of computers and smart phone tech is on much, much shakier ground
In fact, for those of my vintage. i.e late 30s,early 40s remember when we were kids. and programmable VCRs were the height of cutting edga technology. Well I'm like the way our parents and grand parents were then. i.e pretty much baffled by it and even following the instructions it was hit and miss whether you actually managed to record that film rhat was on at 4am lol.
So for the second issue brought up by the OP it doesn't matter whether you email yourself the log file or not (I found the few times i tried it that the file wouldn't attach and when it did the problem was the same anyway) you need Microsoft Office or any other type of office suite to view the files. On the pc i have Microsoft office but had to download an app to my phone to view. csv files. Again an office suite that not only displays. csv files but puts them into a spreadsheet format is required.
As for the first issue it's preferable in every way to view the site. on a pc because on the phone display the actual box to sign into is off screen and takes a little bit of zooming out and seaching to find, the same goes after you have signed in when another box appears with a list of the logs files recorded and the tab to choose it. This is where my lack of fundamental computer/web knowledge comes in. I can't tell you why it doesn't sit nicely inti an easily accessible mobile format but it doesn't. Once you've found the first sign in box/pop up it becomes simple, annoying but simple.
As for there being nothing after signing into the webview site successfully all I can assume is either you've no log files to view which you should have if it's all been set up correctly, including choosing which PIDs to send to logfile or the pop up/window where you click on your logfiles is right off screen and has to be looked for. Of course you don't get that problem if accessed using your desktop.
Hey guys,
I used Chrome Remote desktop for a little while to view/control my computer from my Android phone. It works remarkably well but I got a little sketched out by the permissions Chrome Remote Desktop requires from your computer (basically full access). The permissions do make sense, since you need full access, and it has to go through an internet third party "cloud" (Google). However I think I'd feel better if there was something that didn't send out everything through the cloud and instead just used the Local Area Network (LAN through Wi-Fi). What do you guys use/can recommend?
I do use Unified Remote when I just need to move the mouse/type remotely without a video feed showing on the phone. For example I use it when my laptop is hooked up to the TV for a movie and I can still see the TV, but I do not use its screen mirroring feature. It's a paid option and not sure if it stays LAN only or goes through their servers.
Anyone? Thread was moved.
