Ok… so has anyone tried using a Trendnet Model # TV-IP312W IP camera? The camera says it supports MJPEG video streams. I have installed the camera… and can view streams using from its server. But when I try connecting in Ignition, I get an IO error stating that the stream is not MJPEG.
The URL may be different from the one displayed in your web browser. Sometimes, you have to right click to view the HTML source of the page that works in the browser to find the right URL. You also want to double check the username/password.
Yeah I’m guessing the true stream URL is buried in the HTML on the profile=1 page. If you cant find it, right click in your browser and choose “View Source” - copy and paste it into a text file, and post it here: we may be able to find it.
MJPEG isn’t the most well-defined spec. Each camera seems to implement it differently.
This error message means that Trendnet’s MJPEG implementation uses a different frame delimiter style than our component is used to. Since we can’t distinguish between frames, we just fill up our buffer waiting for the frame delimiter that we aren’t able to detect.
Can you temporarily put this camera on the internet or port-forward a port to it so that we can hook some “probes” up to it and see what its protocol looks like?
