Overview
Introduction
ACTi Mobile Server provides streaming re-direction from NVR Servers to all web clients that
can see MJPEG format video. Users do not need to modify IP devices or NVR settings for
Mobile Server, because the service will automatically encode video in MJPEG format. Web
clients such as Safari, Google Chrome, Firefox, and all other MJPEG-enabled browsers can
directly access ACTi Mobile Server through web service.
The service architecture is described in Fig. 1. Please note that the architecture may change to
fit different applications.
