Pulling a JPEG image from a Hikvision DS-2CD2332?

Recommended Posts

Is it possible to pull a JPEG image from the Hikvision DS-2CD2332 camera? I mean is there a URL I can use to fetch a full-resolution JPEG image.

 

I have been able to do this in the past with other IP sources, such as StarDot IP cameras and video servers, as well as the Sony SNC-P5, SNC-RZ25, and the Axis M5014.

 

For example, on the Axis, it's:

http:///jpg/image.jpg

 

If so, is the URL common across ONVIF-compatible cameras, or is it manufacturer-specific.

 

Thanks in advance!

Syntax will be http://IP/Streaming/channels/1/picture

 

(I found the answer from a post by buellwinkle on this forum), once you hit that URL it'll ask you for user name and password then you get a instant jpeg. you can refresh and it will get a new picture without asking for password. I like this because you can use it on your phone's browser without any apps.

 

(put in the :http port at the end of the IP if its not 80)

Thanks! I'll give that a try tonight. Being able to pull JPEG images will help ease the transition from my current set up to the next IP-based solution.

 

I originally searched the forum several times with keywords like "hikvision jpg" and "hikvision jpeg" and either came up empty--or glazed right over the answer

 

Thank you, buellwinkle, as well!

You're so welcome~ yeah Buellwinkle's posts are so helpful.

 

Also the cameras' ports have to be forwarded for it to work remotely~

 

Now I just wish I can get the mjpeg substream from the camera on the browser...

Think the URL may have changed on the latest raptor firmware? I just get internal server error after entering username / password

Here's what I found since I have Hikvision cameras in all flavors of firmware. That URL works with 5.0.2 and 5.1.2 but not with 5.1.0. So my theory is that it's a bug in 5.1.0 and there's nothing you can do about it other than downgrade or upgrade firmware.
