Hello, I have been through MANY posts on the forum and even had talks with IA Tech Support and still no resolution. I have a ReoLink RLC-510A Camera and I can view it in a browser however, in Perspective, when I try the Video Player or Inline Frame tools, neither one displays the url. I get the error:
"The webpage at XXXX might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address."
Since I can get to it through a browser, I know it is exposed for viewing. I have tried many different options including changing referrerPolicy and src configs to no avail. I am trying to get this camera to work in Perspective. Any help would be appreciated!!
Just fyi, it does not stream MJPEG, but I am not wanting to use Vision. Just want to display and refresh the webpage example. Also, my ignition is https (SSL) and the camera sends https as well, so that is not an issue.
That doesn't necessarily mean anything. Browsers won't support mixing origins or certificates because they'll assume one of the two, or both, are malware.
Check your browsers dev tools (console, and the network tab, primarily) and see what's going wrong. If you have no idea how to interpret it, post it here or contact our support department.
Thanks for your response!!! Well, worked with IA Team yesterday again and we used the video player control in Perspective. In Design mode it get failing. We launched the project in a web browser and viola!!!!!!!! So, issue is resolved using Perspective Video Player for the ReoLink RLC-510A Camera and running the project in a web browser. Again, it did not display correctly in Designer, so I was fooled haha
Here is the connection string I used for still images for the ReoLink RLC-510A Camera. I will just refresh the video player when I want a new picture. I change the resolution to 640x480, but you do not have to:
Did they have any idea why it wasn't working in designer vs the browser? I was playing with an inline frame the other day for testing something, and it would always give the error like you described, but I never tested it by launching the client as I assumed it would behave the same. Did they discover a bug that they're going to fix with the designer or is it something that will just not work in designer?
Great question! No, I did not hear that. Hopefully they will take the ticket and investigate further. It was inconceivable that it failed in Designer and not in the Live Web Page hahaha But definitely wanted to pass my learning on. Hope this helps!
It is probably related to the fact that the designer uses Chromium, not Chrome, so patent-encumbered media codecs are not available. I would avoid cameras that rely on them.
