Hi Guys,
I hope someone can lend me a hand or at least point me in the right directions. I've been to the 100th page on google and still can't find a solution.
Here it is:
I am using IP Cam (an app for android phones) to stream live video. It basically functions as a basic IP camera. It gives me a URL where the feed is. It looks like this http://192.168.2.32:8080/ when I'm connected to my WiFi network. The video stream is at http://192.168.2.32:8080/videofeed.
Here is what I'm trying to do:
I want to capture the video feed of the camera which is at http://192.168.2.32:8080/videofeed and embed it in an HTML5 player (the one I plan to use is Video JS) or a Flash player if the HTML5 doesn't work (prefer HTML5 though). The HTML5 player is asking me for a source file (such as .mp4, webm, mov, etc) but at http://192.168.2.32:8080/videofeed there is no source file. It's just HTML stream.
My question is how to I embed that video stream into my HTML5 player and post it on my website.
Any help and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks very much for taking the time to read this.
Stan
Try StreamFab Downloader and download from Netflix, Amazon, Youtube! Or Try DVDFab and copy Blu-rays! or rip iTunes movies!

that's an internal network ip. it is only visible to computers behind your wifi router and i assume your website is hosted elsewhere.

Hi aedipuss,
Thanks for the reply. Yes, that is an internal IP address. I'll port forward it whenever I need to access it outside the network which I'll have to do if I want to post on my site of course.
However, what I'm trying to do right now is capture that stream and embedded in some sort of player - such as HTML5 or Flash player. Whenever I go to http://192.168.2.32:8080/videofeed it's just an HTML stream and there isn't any sort of file that I can call inside the player.
My question is how do I capture that stream and embed it in a .mp4 file for example.
Any ideas and suggestions??
Thanks

if you capture the stream and record to a file then you need to upload it to your website server and it isn't streaming video. it's just a normal video file played on a website.
not encouraging -Please note, other chat users can NOT directly see your stream. Only users connected to the same network as your android device can do so.

depends on where your website is hosted and what they allow.

Yes, it is still free and I got it, but I don't think it will do what I need to do : (
Thanks for all you help and suggestions man. Let me know if something else comes to mind : )

It’s not easy to display live video stream from an IP camera on a web page because you need wide internet bandwidth and a great video player that is compatible with the major browsers.
But fortunately there are some cloud based services that can do this job for us. One of the best is ipcamlive.com. This service can receive RTSP/H264 video stream from an IP Camera and can broadcast it to the viewers. IPCamLive has Flash/HTML5 video player component that will display the video on PC, MAC, tablet or mobile. The greatest thing is that this site generates the needed HTML snippet for embedding the live video like this:
<iframe src="http://ipcamlive.com/player/player.php?alias=szekesfehervar" width="800px" height="600px"/>
So we just need to copy paste it into our HTML file without any modification. -
That might work but ipcamlive.com seems to be hosted outside the U.S. as pricing is in Euros. About $21 U.S. dollars per month for one IP camera.
