AXIS Q7406 - Video Streams

AXIS Media Control (AMC)

The recommended method of accessing live video from the video encoder

is to use the AXIS Media Control (AMC) in Microsoft Internet Explorer in

Windows.

The AMC control panel can be used to configure v

arious video settings.

Please see the readme file included in the tool for more information.

The AMC control panel is automatically install

ed on first use, after which

it can be configured.

Open the AMC Control Panel from:

• Windows Control Panel (from the Start menu)

• Alternatively, right-click the video image in Internet Explorer and

click Se

ttings to access the AMC window.

Motion JPEG

This format uses standard JPEG still images for the video stream. These

images are then displayed and updated at a rate sufficient to create a stream that shows constantly updated motion.

The Motion JPEG stream uses considerable amounts of bandwidth, but

provides excellent image quality and access to every

image contained in the stream. The recommended method of accessing Motion JPEG live video from the video encoder is to

use the AXIS Media Control (AMC) in Microsoft Internet Explorer in Windows.

Alternative methods of accessing the video stream

Video/images from the video encoder can also be accessed in the following ways:

• Motion JPEG server push (if supported by the client, Firefox,

for example). This option maintains an open HTTP connection

to the browser and sends data as and when required, for as long as required.

• Still JPEG images in a browser. Enter the path

- http://<ip>/axis-cgi/jpg/image.cgi

• Windows Media Player. This requires AMC and the H.264 viewing c

lient to be installed. The paths that can be used are

listed below in the order of preference:

• Unicast via RTP: axrtpu://<ip>/axis-media/media.amp

•

Unicast via RTSP: axrtsp://<ip>/axis-media/media.amp

• Unicast via RTSP, tunneled via HTTP: axrtsphttp://<ip>/axis-media/media.amp

• Multicast: axrtpm://<ip>/axis-media/media.amp

• To access the video stream from QuickT

ime™ the following paths can be used:

• rtsp://<ip>/axis-media/media.amp

• rtsp://<ip>/axis-media/media.3gp

Notes:

• The video encoder supports QuickTime 6.5.1 and later

• QuickTime adds latency to the video stream (up to 3 seconds)

• It may be possible to use other players to view the H.264 stream using the paths above, although Axis does not

guarantee this

• <ip> = IP address
