Camera screenshot over Remote Access

Post by backboy »

I'm using the new remote access module. It works great.

Now my boss wants to put a camera screenshot into our web page. I want to grab the live picture in a 5 minute interval.

How do I do that?

Hello,

You need a tool or a little called wget or a power shell script which can access an web page in command line mode.

The URL for the live picture is something like:

http://remote.c-mor.com:XXXXX/cgi-bin/nph-getpic?c=1&w=640&h=480&o=640

which means:

c=1 is for camera no. 1
w=640 is the width of the camera picture. Please have a look on the Quick Start page to figure the dimensions of the camera picture
h=480 is the height of the camera picture
o=640 is the output width of the camera picture. The output height is calculated automatically by C-MOR

Try to use the link above with your remote access port and see if you get the live snapshot of your camera. If this works move on with the scripting.

Also, C-MOR by za-internet offers service to write such programs. This may save you time.

Regards,

Michael

XXXXX is the port on which your C-MOR is available if the remote access module is in use.

Have a look here where the remote access for video surveillance is described:
