I was using Internet Explorer 11. I have Google Chrome, but not Firefox. I've been busy the last few days, but should have time to run through all of the possibilities in a few days and will report back. Thanks.

Here's what I tried.

Result: Login box appears. I entered the user and password and receive: Page can't be displayed

http://ipaddress/Streaming/Channels/2/httpPreview
Result: Login box appears. I entered the user and password and receive: Page can't be displayed

http://ipaddress:port/Streaming/Channels/1/httpPreview
Result: Screen showed 6 lines of a status string. Also had a box on the bottom of the screen asking "Do you want to open or save httpPreview"

http://ipaddress:port/Streaming/Channels/2/httpPreview
Result: Screen showed 6 lines of a status string. Also had a box on the bottom of the screen asking "Do you want to open or save httpPreview"

http://user:password@ipaddress/Streaming/Channels/1/httpPreview
Result: Box shows up with "Windows cannot find http://.......

http://user:password@ipaddress/Streaming/Channels/2/httpPreview

I use http://ipaddress:port/ to access the camera's URL after the login box.

Update: error received when attempting to start Icamsource is 404 - Web URL not found.

Tried a few more URLs tonight and no luck.

I tried all 68 links that come up at the link, none produce an image. I also tried most of the links separatly in Icamsource with and without a user name and pasword: http://user:password@ipaddress:port#/insert_mjpeg_url_here. I have also tried links with a channel designation as "1" and I also tried it with a "2" as the MJPEG is the substream. The main channel is H.264 and cannot be changed. I have also tried video url's that I found on the web for Hikvision IP cameras as the Trendnet camera is a rebranded Hikvision DS-2CD2012-I. They look exactly alike and the specs appear to be the same.

I have found that if I don't use the user and password in the beginning of the url, I get the error that the camera cannot be found. I'm at work right now and can't try it to get the exact wording. If I use the user:password and hit start, for most attemps, it doesn't error, but does not produce an image.

I opened a help desk ticket with Trendnet and their suggested url was: http://ipaddress/Streaming/Channels/1/httpPreview. I had already tried this one with channel 1 and 2 and with and without the user and password in the url and it did not work in Icamsource.

I'm beginning to think that this camera is not compatable with Icamsource, even though it is MJPEG compatable. Here is a list of url's that I made from searching the web and have tried. Some are repeats of the ones from the mjpeg_test link.

Trendnet mjpeg video urls to try with icamsource
http://xx.xx.xx.xx/IMAGE.JPG (for single JPEG images)
http://xx.xx.xx.xx/VIDEO.CGI (for streaming MJPEG video)
http://192.168.5.21/cgi/jpg/image.cgi
http://192.168.5.21/cgi/mjpg/mjpg.cgi
http://user:password@192.168.5.21/cgi/mjpg/mjpg.cgi
http://user:password@192.168.5.21/cgi/jpg/image.cgi
http://xx.xx.xx.xx/goform/capture (for single JPEG images)
http://xx.xx.xx.xx/goform/capture/video.cgi (for streaming MJPEG video)
http://xx.xx.xx.xx/goform/video (for single JPEG images)
http://xx.xx.xx.xx/goform/video2 (for single JPEG images)
http://xx.xx.xx.xx/cgi/mjpg/mjpeg.cgi (for streaming MJPEG video)
http://user:password@xx.xx.xx.xx/Streaming/Channels/1/httppreview (MJPEG)
http://xx.xx.xx.xx/image/jpeg.cgi (for single JPEG images)
http://xx.xx.xx.xx/video/mjpg.cgi (for streaming MJPEG)
You will need to disable "User Access Control" of the camera via the web configuration interface (see manual). Apparently, Motion does not work when authentication is required when accessing the URLs. Don't worry as user access control is a separate matter from the "admin password" of the camera. The admin password is only needed when changing camera settings.

Network / IP Camera Compatibility / Trendnet TV-IP320PI Outdoor IP Camera - need video url for mjpeg

« on: June 17, 2015, 09:07:53 AM »

Recently purchased a Trendnet TV-IP320PI outdoor camera as it is rated to -20*F and can use POE. Coldest temps I saw this past winter was -24*F. The camera's main stream is H.264 and I am using that format with Trendnet's ProView software running on a dedicated computer that I also use for Icamsource. Icamsource is running with 2 local webcams and 1 Airlink IP camera and 3 Airlink IP cameras at a remote location.

The Trendnet camera uses H.264 video as its mainstream and has a substream that is selectable for H.264 OR MJPEG. I have the substream set to MJPEG, 640x480 and 2fps. I have been using a separate session of Icamsource (different password) so I don't have to keep stopping/starting my primary Icamsource. My goal is to get Icamsource to see the MJPEG image so that I can add an outdoor Trendnet camera to my remote location and run it from home like I do the remote Airlink cameras. I have tried all of the known video url's on SKJM's website plus all of the ones I found online and cannot get an image to show on icamsource. I have tried them with and without a loging:password in the http string. I have also tried changing a "1" to a "2" for channel designation for some of the video url's since it is a substream. One reason I bought this camera was because it was compatable with MJPEG. Any help would be appreciated.

FYI.....The IR illumination on this camera works pretty good, except that bugs and spiders are attracted to it. The camera is mounted under the eave of my house. I blanked off the IR LED's with aluminum tape with duct tape over that and left a cutout for the day/night sensor. I bought a sub-$10 IR illuminator and mounted it about 5' below the camera and adjusted it in the center of the camera view and is working good. I sprayed bug/spider spray around the area of the camera, IR illuminator and around the outside of the windows where my other cameras point outside from inside of the house. I also use a 10' piece of 1" PVC with a duster stuck in the end and use it to wipe stuff off of the cams/windows when something gets on them.

« on: June 14, 2015, 11:05:50 AM »

The Easyn 1BF camera only supports H.264 format and is not compatable with Icamsource. Cameras must be USB webcams or IP cameras with MJPEG format to use with Icamsource.

« on: December 03, 2014, 10:52:42 AM »

Sounds like a good setup. I do something similar with a mix of 2 webcams and 1 IP cam at home and 3 IP cams at a remote location. I have everything saved to a Dropbox account. I use host domains for both locations.

My dedicated desktop computer is Windows 7 Pro, I can remote into it and stop/start Icamsource in case one of the cams locks up. Sometimes the power glitches at my remote location and I have to start/stop Icamsource to get it going again. Sometimes one of the webcams has a frozen image and I dod the same to recover.

Have you read this?

I have 4 Airlink IP cameras and they work well as most IP cameras that are MJPEG compatible.

« on: May 22, 2014, 04:49:14 AM »

Are you trying to use the camera on the same phone that has the Icam App on it? There needs to be a camera connected to the computer that is running Icamsource, either webcams connected directly to a USB port or an IP camera connected to the route, either wired directly with an ethernet cable or wirelessly.

Anthony,

I have the siren at my hunting camp indoors. Would only be activated if someone went inside.

I have two Airlink IP cams with IR and pan/tilt. I only use them indoors and cannot point them out of a window because of reflected IR at night. They are also not temperature rated for our winters in Vermont. I use Airlink 1620W's pointed out of a window with an outdoor light and a motion light. I also use a motion activated indoor light at a remote location and a 102db siren I got from Radio Shack for less than $7 US. Siren is activated through an old PIR camera that has programmable outputs using the PIR. The camera is dead, but the circuitry works. I believe that lights and piercing sounds would disorient people when they least expect it.

Good job on catching the bad guys or gals.

iCam Support / Re: Supported PoE Camera?

« on: April 10, 2014, 04:43:30 AM »

I thought of using a POE Airlink camera (AIC1620POE) in a camera enclosure like one from Swann with a heater and blower. Airlink also sells an 8 port switch with 4 port POE. I'd like to set this up at my camp, but the DSL is weak and I have it taxed with 3 IP cams running as it is. I want to put it up in a tree pointed at the building.

I wouldn't worry about it if you're just running Icamsource and Avast. No Dropbox running on it?
