Can't see cam in GV-iView or browser, Coded needed ?

Recommended Posts

Do I need some additional encoders server-side to be able to view cam in a regular browser, (Mpeg4)

 

The gv-iView app show all cam as black but indentify "signal lost" correctly.

 

Everything work fine with the activeXs in IE

iView requires a specific version (or better) of GV. What version do you have. I think there is an Apple version of IP Cam Viewer. If so, try that.

 

For desktop browsers, you need ActiveX.

I use version 8.4 and usually regular browser can see an mpeg4 live-only stream. (quicktime)

I don't understand what you mean by "regular browser". You'll have to give more information. Is this a new setup? did it used to work? etc.

It's a new setup, I meant a browser that is not IE with ActiveX,

I don't have 8.4, but I've never seen a browser interface that would stream to quicktime easily. I know it can be done by logging in under IE and then copying the URL with the sessionID into quicktime. So it can be done, but it isn't "supported" as far as I know.

 

Check to see if your GV web server configuration is set to the "less secure" setting - turn off "enhanced network security". Mmaybe make sure your 3GPP setting is active (although I'm not sure what that does).
