AXIS 282/AXIS 282A - Video and Audio Streams

Other methods of accessing the video stream

Video/images from the AXIS 282/AXIS 282A can also be accessed in the following ways:

• If supported by the client, the AXIS 282/AXIS 282A can use Motion JPEG server

push

to display video. This option maintains an open HTTP connection to the browser and

sends data as and when required, for as long as required.

• As single JPEG images in a browser

. Enter e.g. the path:

http://<ip>/axis-cgi/jpg/image.cgi?resolution=CIF

• Windows Media Player. This requires AMC and the MPEG-4

decoder to be installed. The

paths that can be used are listed below, in the order of preference.

• Unicast via RTP: axrtpu://<ip>/mpeg4/media.amp

•

Unicast via RTSP: axrtsp://<ip>/mpeg4/media.amp

• Unicast via RTSP, tunneled via HTTP: axrtsphttp://<ip>/mpeg4/media.amp

• Unicast via RTSP, tunneled via HTTPS: axrtsphttps://<ip>/mpeg4/media.amp

• Multicast: axrtpm://<ip>/mpeg4/media.amp

Note:

<ip> = IP address.

Other MPEG-4 clients

Although it may be possible to use other clients to view the MPEG-4 stream, it is not

guaranteed to work in all cases.

For some other clients, such as QuickTime™ the

Video Object Type must be set to Simple. It

may also be necessary to adjust the advanced MPEG-4 settings.

To assess the video stream from QuickTime™ the followi

ng path can be used:

rtsp://<ip>/mpeg4/media.amp

This path is for all supported methods, and the client will

negotiate with the AXIS

282/AXIS 282A to determine exactly which transport protocol to use.

Note:

<ip> = IP address.

Audio transmission methods

For the AXIS 282A, the audio stream can be acce

ssed in the Live View page when viewing

either Motion JPEG or MPEG-4.

Using Motion JPEG

The basic transmission method of audio used in conjunction with

Motion JPEG video

streaming is transmission over HTTP. The video and audio streams are not synchronized

when using Motion JPEG so the streams may be slightly out of sync. The latency in any

stream should be low, but this will depend on the network infrastructure.

Using MPEG-4
