H.264 support H FOSCAM FI9821 & FI9851

[ChrisD]

Any updates on supporting H.264 for these newer FOSCAM cameras? Or do you know of any way to use the MPG streams, I had jpg working but it is too slow.
Thanks

I have read that post, it just that it is 1-1/2 years old. So it seems safe to say that we should look for a different solution. I am guessing there has been no work done supporting these cameras yet or I have to believe you would be discussing progress. It's a shame because so far your program fits our needs the best so far but I am going to be forced to look at other alternatives that work today.

From searching around, it looks like the FI9821 (and maybe the FI9851 as well) can be configured to stream MJPEG data. There’s info here: http://www.ipcam-shop.nl/media/Foscam%20H264%20FW/How%20to%20fetch%20MJPEG%20stream%20on%20the%20FI9821W.pdf

Chris,
   I have 2 f19821W v2 & one F19821P, and got both 821W's working; but then lost the first after entering the 1 step, setting one of the streams to MJEP, the sub?.  Will this work with multiple cameras, or just one at a time.  However, I did have both working and showing up in iCam on my iPhone. The proceeded to try to do same with the 'P' version and lost all but one 821W v2.  Have no ideal what I have done to the camera 'chips'.  Can I reset them.  I tried a factory reset and did not work and iCamSource would not show up this camera; but the 2nd clear as a bell.  Very confused and frustrated. How to reset the camera so to start over; and, hopefully and the 2 F19821W v2 working.
 Best,
Seth
