@Pimagical I’m Having some trouble with getting image from Axis Cams. none of the standard url’s from Axis are showing a stream or snapshot. even tried with a userlogin but no result.

New Plugin for IP Camera (Snapshot)
-
@funip post your device configuration and your Axis camera type so we can help you.
-
@Pimagical default config with “cameraUrl”: http://ipcam/mjpg/video.mjpg from plugin and Axis M3203
-
@funip http://www.axis.com/files/manuals/um_m3203v_57993_en_1405.pdf @ page 12 this is a RTSP camera? This version of pimatic-ipcamera plugin is supporting MJPEG. Maybe RTSP will work for you? RTSP is not yet supported. @funky81 is going to support RTSP in the near future.
-
@Pimagical As far as I see the Axis support RTSP and also MJPEG.
On page 12 its the point "Motion JPEG server push"
On my AXIS M1025 the mjpg stream is also via http://ipcam/mjpg/video.mjpg via firefox accessable but I didn´t try it with the plugin. -
@Flop2006 @funip try to add or find a Axis cameraUrl with username and password in it.
For example: user:password@ipcamera/mjpg/video.mjpg or ipcamera/axis-cgi/video.cgi?user=admin&pwd=123
M3203
MJPEG http://[IPADDRESS]/axis-cgi/mjpg/video.cgi?date=1&clock=1&resolution=[WIDTH]x[HEIGHT]

@Pimagical Got it to work after reinstall via http://ipcam//axis-cgi/mjpg/video.cgi. Only i have to start the cam manually and every second the stream is printed in the display. that a bit frustrating but so far so good thanks. I hope that in the future the image is auto shown without any prints and less buttons. Mayby some extra options as trigger by doorbell.

@funip The first version of the plugin worked with a image base64 stream but after one hour the plugin consumed too much memory and Pimatic and Raspbian freezes up.
Now its a picture refresh when you press refresh or play (tested 12 hours @interval 1 second gave no issues)
Maybe you can add a rule to refresh the picture once in a hour, minute. I don’t know how to add the pimatic-ipcamera refresh button into a rule? Maybe @Yves911 or @mwittig can help?
-
@Pimagical sorry to inform you I made a mistake. The final test was with one off my Axis M3203 cams, but only that one is working. The other cams are not working. One way or the other way, the firmware and the url do not match. firmware working with http://ipcam//axis-cgi/mjpg/video.cgi is 5.40.9.2
-
@funip try to find an update for it.
I’m working on a rule that send the latest snapshot by mail:
Installed mutt email client http://www.sbprojects.net/projects/raspberrypi/mutt.php
IF ContactSensor is opened THEN execute "echo \"Pimatic ContactSensor has opened since date +%d-%m-%Y\" \"%H:%M\" \"%Z\" | mutt -a \"/home/pi/pimatic-app/node_modules/pimatic-mobile-frontend/public/img/ipcamera-one.jpg\" -s \"Pimatic Message\" -- recipient@domain.com"
This rule is only missing a “THEN press Refresh” button to get the latest snapshot before sending the snapshot. I don’t know what is needed to get this press refresh working? @leader21 you?
-

@Pimagical Which version / branch of the ipcamera plugin are you using? Did you install via github or via npm? Thanks.

Hi,
I’m using your plugin quite a time and it is fully functional with my old foscam fi9828w. As this cam is not state of the art I bought a new INSTAR 6014HD and reconfigured my device accordingly. The Instar URL for Mjpeg is http://192.168.2.xx/cgi-bin/hi3510/mjpegstream.cgi?-chn=11&-usr=admin&-pwd=[iwonttellyouthis] Using the url in VLC or even in chrome works without a hassle and shows the mjpeg stream. Nevertheless I’m not able to get the plugin into showing the jpgs. Any clue? Are there different versions of mjpeg streams and just some are supported? Can I provide you any input in order helping to catch fix this?Of course I tried already to tewak settings (eg. changing login and password to somewhat simple, lowering resolution of the stream, trying just snapshots)
The cgi of the instar is here (if this helps)

@merphun no clue at the moment. I’m not sure if the “-” sign is supported? (who knows?) Can you do a password less setup test if possible and remove also “-chn”. Definetely try to get the latest camera firmware! Maybe it will work onto RTSP in the near future.
URL examples on the following lists:

Hi,
I edited the IpCameraTempl-page.coffee file@socket.on("snapshot"+@id,(data)=> if (data == @id && !done) done = true console.log "Refresh : "+ @imgId + ", data : " + data $(".img_"+@imgId).attr("src",@filename + "?ts="+ new Date().getTime())
and changed the last line to
$(".img_"+@imgId).attr("src",@device.config.cameraUrl)
now the stream is perfectly shown. I don’t know yet if I will run into the memory topic this way (I understand this was the reason why showing the stream has been changed into generating snapshots) but in this case I already tried to state a camera snapshot url which also works

@funky81
Can you please help me? I am stuck… Cannot get this to work with my Foscam camera. The url http://http/192.168.2.3:8002/snapshot.cgi?user=admin&pwd=xx shows me a picture in the webbrower.my device config is:
{
“id”: “voorkant”,
“class”: “IpCameraDevice”,
“name”: “Voortuin”,
“filename”: “voorkant.jpg”,
“cameraUrl”: "http://192.168.2.3:8002/snapshot.cgi?",
“username”: “admin”,
“password”: “xx”,
“refresh”: 60000,
“width”: 320,
“height”: 240
}
When I push the refresh button I see an empty file “voorkant.jpg” in the folder “pimatic-mobile-frontend/public/img”. When I replace this file with an real picture the picture is shown in de webinterface.
What am I doing wrong?? -
@Pimagical new issue… mobile frontend crahes. On my test pi works fine(fresh install no plugins) but on my homeseer nope(model 2B latest), lot of plugins
-
@ploman You have a snapshot URL. You need a MJPEG stream URL and try a username and password in it.
For example http://IPADDRESS/videostream.cgi?user=[USERNAME]&pwd=[PASSWORD]
Check for your camera type and URL on http://www.ispyconnect.com/man.aspx?n=foscam
-
@funip Do you have pimatic error information or a crash report? Or just freezes up?
