When using any other browser than Internet Explorer, select the appropriate radio button to define your
preferred method of viewing images. The available options are similar to Internet Explorer except for Server
Push. With this method, the camera maintains and controls an open HTTP connection to the browser and sends
data as and when required for as long as required.
Please see the online help for more information.
Viewer settings
Checking the Show viewer toolbar displays the viewer toolbar under the video stream in your browser. By
checking the Enable MPEG-4 decoder installation box, it is also possible for the Administrator to enable or
disable the installation of the MPEG-4 decoder. This is used to prevent the installation of unlicensed copies.
Further decoder licenses can be purchased from your Axis dealer.
HTML Examples
You can add live video from the camera to your own web site. The camera can transmit a Motion JPEG or
unicast MPEG-4 stream to up to 20 simultaneous connections, although an administrator can restrict this to
fewer. If multicast MPEG-4 is used, the video stream will be available to an unlimited number of viewers
connected to the parts of the network where multicast is enabled. Please note that a separate MPEG-4 license is
required for each viewer.
Enter the Video Format, Image Type, Image Size and other settings to suit your Web page and click Update.
The camera then generates the required source code for your configuration. Copy this code and paste it into
your own Web page code.
External Video
The camera can also display video images from other Axis network cameras and video servers, directly on the
Live View page. These are known as External Video sources. These external video sources are available from the
drop-down list on the Live View page.
Click the Add button to open the External Video Source Setup dialog, which is used to make all the necessary
settings. Enter the IP address or host name of the external video source you wish to add. Depending on the
external source, then select either MPEG-2, MPEG-4 or Motion JPEG as the type of video stream to receive.
Note:
Ensure that you have installed the correct decoders.
Example of a path to an external video source:
Sequence Mode
The Live View page can be configured to cycle through the internal and selected external video sources, in
order, or randomly.
Select the desired video sources and enter the time in seconds to display each source (up to 59 minutes).
Click Save.
The Sequence buttons that appear on the Live View page are used to start and stop the sequence mode.
