How can i get the perspective video player component to display a live feed from an AXIS M2026-LE Mk II Network Camera? The following URL works fine in Chrome browser, but will not show up in the video player component: [http://IP-ADRESS/axis-cgi/mjpg/video.cgi](http://IP-ADRESS/axis-cgi/mjpg/video.cgi) The component displays the error “Error Loading Media: File not valid”. The camera uses authentication with username and password. How can i pass this in the video player component? ---

Try using an [Inline Frame component](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC81/Perspective+-+Inline+Frame) and setting the src to that url. As for the auth, I couldn’t answer that. Sorry ☹ ---

Try `http://user:pass@IP-ADRESS/axis-cgi/mjpg/video.cgi` ---

Were you able to resolve this? I have the same issue currently with a list of axis cameras. ---

that path, just is necessary to put it on the source component? and is that all? and do you get that path from your camera? or where do you know what you need to write there? ---

Yes, the video player needs a URL for the stream. Unfortunately figuring out what URL your particular camera uses is not always straight forward. If the documentation has that information try that first otherwise head over to somewhere like [https://www.ispyconnect.com/camera/axis](https://www.ispyconnect.com/camera/axis) and see if you cannot find the correct URL.
