Mjpeg URL for Dahua IP Cameras

Recommended Posts

I need to find the mjpeg URL for Dahua 2mp bullet and dome cameras to integrate with a control system. Most cameras like axis, iqeye, panasonic, etc all have an mjpeg stream url.

 

Does anyone know the mjpeg URL for Dahua IP cameras?

 

Thanks.

Dex,

 

I know it depends on the firmware.

 

Does that url you posted produce a snapshot, or live video?

 

I am asking for live video that will feed a control system.

 

Thanks.

That is the snapshot URI.

 

Well, MJPEG video is not available (yet) and i don't think it will be. MJPEG it's way too old and a bandwidth hog, so support has been stopped for it in a while.

 

Your best choice is to make a "proxy server", to restream from RTSP to MJPEG.

I know, but unfortunately all control systems use an mjpeg feed for video. So that means we need it.

 

Axis, iqeye, panasonic, etc all have a separate mjpeg url feeds.

 

I wonder why Dahua does not?

depends on the hardware used and the producation date

 

I might say DAHUA uses CPU power for other functions, rather encoding in MJPEG.
