In Intellect video can be received via HTTP protocol from specific cameras that enable viewing video in the web browser at the HTTP address. MJPEG and MPEG2 codecs are supported.

Note

VLC Media Player can be used in Intellect in order to check if video from these cameras can be received. If this player gets the video, then it will be available in Intellect.

Add a device streaming video via HTTP protocol as follows:

  1. Create the Video capture device based on the Computer object in the Hardware tab of the System settings dialog box (1).
  2. Select WebPlayer in the Type dropdown list (2).
  3. In the IP address field specify the address to get video from the web camera (3). Any format of IP address is possible. Do not use URL at which viewing video in the browser is available as the address, use the address of the video that is streamed on a page. Sometimes it can be found in the source code of the page. 
    Examples of addresses:
    http://81.25.231.7:28080/stream/live
    http://root:1@10.0.40.248:80/mjpg/1/video.mjpg – the address to get video from Axis camera that supports video streaming in the corresponding format.
  4. Click the Apply button (4).
  5. Create the Camera object based on the created Video capture device object.
  6. Click the Apply button.

The device streaming video via HTTP protocol is now added.
