AXIS 213 PTZ 13
Other methods of accessing the video stream
Video/images from the AXIS 213 PTZ can also be accessed in the following ways:
•If supported by the client, the AXIS 213 PTZ can use Motion JPEG server push to display video. This option maintains an open HTTP connection to the browser and sends data as and when required, for as long as required.
•As single JPEG images in a browser. Enter e.g. the path: http://<IP
•Windows Media Player. This requires AMC and the
•Unicast via RTP: axrtpu://<IP address>/mpeg4/media.amp
•Unicast via RTSP: axrtsp://<IP address>/mpeg4/media.amp
•Unicast via RTSP, tunneled via HTTP: axrtsphttp://<IP address>/mpeg4/media.amp
•Multicast: axrtpm://<IP address>/mpeg4/media.amp
Other MPEG-4 clients
Although it may be possible to use other clients to view the
For some other clients, e.g. QuickTime™ the Video Object Type must be set to Simple. It may also be necessary to adjust the advanced
To assess the video stream from e.g. QuickTime™ the following path can be used:
rtsp://<IP address>/mpeg4/media.amp
This path is for all supported methods, and the client will negotiate with the AXIS 213 PTZ to determine exactly which transport protocol to use.
Audio transmission methods
The audio stream can be accessed in the Live View page when viewing either Motion JPEG or MPEG.
Using Motion JPEG
The basic transmission method of audio used in conjunction with Motion JPEG video streaming is transmission over HTTP. The video and audio streams are not synchronized when using Motion JPEG so the streams may be slightly out of sync. The latency in any stream should be low, but this will depend on the network infrastructure.

Accessing the Audio Streams
In addition to accessing audio in the Live View page using AMC, audio from the Video Server can also be accessed in the following ways:

QuickTime/Windows Media Player
It is possible to use QuickTime and Windows Media Player to listen to the audio stream using the same methods to access video streams.
