iCam & Storage Options EyeCam
« on: May 27, 2013, 01:20:29 PM »
Hi all,

To supplement my computer's webcam I just purchased the following IP cam from Storage Options:

http://www.storageoptions.com/products/ip-cameras/indoor/eyecam

I've tried the following settings but there's no image:



I checked the help page for forming a correct URL, but unfortunately neither Storage Option or EyeCam are in the drop down:

http://skjm.com/icam/mjpeg.php

Any help appreciated! Also would like to know if this camera is compatible with the IPcam iPhone app:

We haven't tested with that particular camera, but if it outputs MJPEG formatted data, it'll probably work with iCamSource.

When you run iCamSource, you'll need to select the "Ethernet /Wi-Fi" tab because the camera is a network camera, not a USB camera. Then, enter the MJPEG or JPEG URL for your camera.

If the MJPEG or JPEG URL isn't something that can be found by searching around with Google or by contacting their support, we actually have another solution available, although it is currently in its very preliminary stages, and that is: http://skjm.com/icam/mjpeg_test.php

When you enter the camera's IP address and port into that web page, it will attempt to connect to the camera using all of the common MJPEG and JPEG URLs that we are aware of. If any of the URLs produce an image, then that is the URL to use in iCamSource.

If your camera requires a login and password, you can enter them in that webpage right before the address : login:password@Camera_address
