AXIS Media Control (AMC)
The recommended method of accessing live video from the network camera
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 installed on f
irst 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
Set
tings 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 network camera 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 network camera 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 network camera 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
• For input parameters to media.amp, refer to the VAPIX Application Programming Interface (API). See www.axis.com
for more information.
