AXIS 225FD - Live View Config
When using any other browser than Internet Explorer, select the appropriate radio button 
to define your preferred method of viewing images. The available options are similar to 
Internet Explorer except for Server Push. With this method, the camera maintains and 
controls an open HTTP connection to the browser and sends data as and when required for 
as long as required.
Please see the online help 
 for more information.
Viewer settings
Checking the Show viewer toolbar displays the viewer toolbar under the video stream in 
your browser. By checking the Enable MPEG-4 decoder installation box, it is also possible 
for the Administrator to enable or disable the installation of the MPEG-4 decoder. This is 
used to prevent the installation of unlicensed copies. Further decoder licenses can be 
purchased from your Axis dealer.
HTML Examples
You can add live video from the camera to your own web site. The camera can transmit a 
Motion JPEG or unicast MPEG-4 stream to up to 20 simultaneous connections, although 
an administrator can restrict this to fewer. If multicast MPEG-4 is used, the video stream 
will be available to an unlimited number of viewers connected to the parts of the network 
where multicast is enabled. Please note that a separate MPEG-4 license is required for each 
viewer.
Enter the Video Format, Im
age Type, Image Size and other settings to suit your Web page 
and click Update. The camera then generates the required source code for your 
configuration. Copy this code and paste it into your own Web page code. 
External Video
The camera can also display video images from other Axis network cameras and video 
servers, directly on the Live View page. These are known as External Video sources. These 
external video sources are available from the drop-down list on the Live View page. 
Click the Add 
button to open the External Video Source Setup dialog, which is used to 
make all the necessary settings. Enter the IP address or host name of the external video 
source you wish to add. Depending on the external source, then select either MPEG-2, 
MPEG-4 or Motion JPEG as the type of video stream to receive.
Note: 
Ensure that you have installed the correct decoders.
