AVC760 HTTP Requests

[sm0126 0]

Hi All,

Post Number 2!

 

Does anyone know the H T T P Request(s) to send to a AVC760 to instruct it to send video data.

 

I'm trying to get my AVC760 working with securityspy on the Mac.

I saw the other post, and I did not respond as I do not know about Security Spy.

 

I appeared to be a DVR software that is loaded to your computer, and then you hook up analog cameras to it, and the MAC becomes a DVR.

 

If Security Spy can connect to AVTech DVR, and retrieve video then I would have an interest in keeping tabs of your notes!

I would have to get a copy of Security Spy in order to figure it out.

Hi Scorpion,

 

Thanks for the reply, I'll let you know if I get anywhere with SecuritySpy (it has popped up a lot in this forum). However, I'm pretty new to this lark and still having probs with Steve's Java app (CCTV) - it just doesn't seem to connect (not even sure how to troubleshoot it at this stage..)

I have never played that much with steve's ap.

 

It worked locally the first time I used it.

It worked remotely the first time I used it.

 

I would wonder if you have Lan networking issues, or portforward issues?

Hi Scorpion,

 

Doesn't look like LAN or port forwarding issues as I can get web based access to work both locally and remotely.

If you can use a browser and find an H T T P debugging add-on you can get some clues from the H T T P headers.

 

for example setting quality would get something like this:

 

GET /cgi-bin/user/Config.cgi?action=set&Video.10.Mpeg4.Quality=BEST&rnd=0.9853055337376982 H T T P /1.1

 

Don't ask me what all that means or how exactly you can use it but you can debug and edit these headers which might put you on the right track, you can also see all the miles of java scripting.

 

If you just want to connect to the quicktime feed then the h t t p request for AVC 761 is as follows:

 

rtsp://ipaddress:portnumber/live/mepeg4

 

Hope this helps.
