Camera in Ignition

General Discussion
1

Hi, I'm working for Sabert in EU and we are planning to install Ignition also in our EU plants.

For the moment only our US colleagues are working with ignition.

So I am trying to have a camera on the plant in Ignition in the trial-version.

I'm not very "IT" so maybe somebody can give me a way to start.

I've received this to try out :

URL:10.3.6.101/cgi-bin/mjpg/video.cgi?channel=1&subtype=1 and write this in the URL place

but always HTTP404: not found comes as an error.

Thanks, any thing can help me.

The error suggests the camera deliberately rejected the URL as invalid. You'll have to share more.

Consider using VLC to test camera streams before using them in Ignition.

FWIW, you are unlikely to be very happy with MJPEG from most cameras. I made a module to convert common performant streams (h264/5) to MJPEG leveraging the gateway. Found here:

Latest links are in comments 104 & 105.

Hi Phil,

I’m on our camera 1 now!

Thanks a lot!

The password was wrong and in the URL I had put one . too much…

Working fine now .

Have a nice weekend,
