I wonder if it may be more of a problem with the phone ISP?

 

Hi scorpion, he really gets to the web server page, he also puts the user/login and then, probably, the DVR server tries to install the ActiveX, maybe saying something like "you dont have permission to see home . h t m"

 

I suspect its a 780W ActiveX-server-windows-only like mine, wanting to install the ActiveX on the Nokia web browser, it wont be possible since it works only for Windows, perhaps it works on WinCE devices, I dont know

 

Im glad that later models are using Java, being the most important reason accessibility to any device regardless of platform, he the device can run Java then it can see the cameras

 

I'm thinking on an alternate solution to bring mobility to non-Java AVTech models.

 

Thats what Im thinking of:

- 1 PC networked on the same LAN as the DVR

- A program that runs a web server and then launches a customized Video Server version that gets the video feed and save it as a series of jpg images

- Then send those images back to the web server (on the PC) where we can see them

 

Is not an easy project, at least for me, but Im starting right now.

My first step will be embed the ActiveX control on a separate application that does all the login involved, if I can do that and get images from the DVR then half the work is done!

 

If you can afford to have a PC running all the time (at least all the time you NEED to access the DVR) then you certainly could "see" the cameras, with some delay (a few seconds, depending on the implementation)

 

I dont know if this is the right thread to start this, perhaps I should start a new one to see if there any more people interested What do you guys think?

You should say wich AVTech modl are you using

 

Unfortunately I have a 780W and it doesnt have a Java server, so when you try to connect through the web server it requires the installation of an ActiveX component, something that the native web browser in Nokia wont accept

 

If you are lucky enough and you have a newer DVR then you can hook up using the standard browser, search for "avtech java app" in this forum

Any suggestions as to the best way to get a cut of the source to those who might want a copy to play with?

So thats the problem Steve! The Video Server application embedded on the browser is an ActiveX object, not a java application (at least for 780W) its a VideoServerCom dll file, but I suspect that the command set should be almost the same as in 781, it would be a matter of "find" the right login procedure and how to pass commands to the DVR

 

If you want you can upload the source code to Megaupload (I dont recommend Rapidshare unless you have a premium account because it will be deleted after 10 downloads)

 

Thaniks in advance!

[snipped...] There seem to then be two basic second stage login processes, one for the 78x machines, and one for the others. I've not looked too much at the detail of the HxxP login process, but I'd not be at all surprised if the 780 has a different protocol again.

 

Just grabbing the applet for the 780 machine, decompiling it, and then calling it from a Java app should work I'd have thought.

 

I'm more than happy for folks to have the source for my port of my application.

How did you grabbed the applet? Did you mean you grabbed the HxxP traffic in your browser? I have the 780W functionality wrapped on an ActiveX embedded in the browser, I would like to do exactly as you did I'll appreciate more details regarding on how did you obtained the source code

 

I dont have enough posts to send you a PM, yet, however you can send PMs to me!

hi, thanks for your interest.

I have an avtech avc781 with 4 channels and the program java cctv.jar it dearly works on my pc.

I would like to know if the same program is able' to turn on my pocket pc eten glofiish x800 with mobile windows 6. when I have tried, not and' is possible to compile it because it misses some relative file. jad

Would you be prepared to point out me where to withdraw the file or which software can I take for visualizing my avtech on the pocket pc?

thanks endless.

Hi fradi, Icant believe, we have almost the same DVR, 780W is mine, but the program doesnt work on it.

 

Its 781 an MPEG4? 780 is MPEG2, maybe it has something to do with that?

 

I'm looking for the same functionality, porting the jar to a mobile device, but I probably need the source code and Eclipse

Hi everyone, this is an amazing place to find out how much we can do with our DVRs Glad to find it! Looking forward to help experimenting new ways to acces DVRs over the internet.

 

Currently I want to do that with a AVTECH 780W, I would like to see the cameras using Java on mobile devices, any help will be appreciated!

Thanks for the application Steve!

 

However I have an AVTECH 780W and it seems that the login process is a little bit different so I can't log in (using Windows XP it says: Error java io IOException: Can't read the Login data !!. tried both, command line and java -jar CCTV.jar with no arguments)

 

Is it possible for you to send me the source code? I want to acces my 780W and if that works as expected I'll try to make the cameras accessible through a cell phone (Java MIDlet on Nokia N95 8Gb)

 

Thanks in advance!

 

PS: I dont have enough posts yet to send you a PM so I'll appreciate if you send me any email so I can contact you, THANKS!
