16AXIS 216FD - Video Streams

Alternative methods of accessing the video stream

Video/images from the AXIS 216FD can also be accessed in the following ways:

Motion JPEG server push (if supported by the client, e.g. Mozilla/Firefox). This option maintains an open HTTP connection to the browser and sends data as and when required, for as long as required. See HTML Examples, on page 27.

Still JPEG images in a browser. Enter e.g. the path: http://<ip>/axis-cgi/jpg/image.cgi?resolution=320x240

Windows Media Player. This requires AMC and the MPEG-4 viewing client to be installed. The paths that can be used are listed below in the order of preference.

Unicast via RTP: axrtpu://<ip>/mpeg4/media.amp

Unicast via RTSP: axrtsp://<ip>/mpeg4/media.amp

Unicast via RTSP, tunneled via HTTP: axrtsphttp://<ip>/mpeg4/media.amp

Multicast: axrtpm://<ip>/mpeg4/media.amp

Note: <ip> = IP address
