Live video from the Axis video server can be added to your own web page.
Select the preferred video format from the Select video format drop down list. The
available options are Motion JPEG, MPEG-4 using AMC, and MPEG-4 using QuickTime. If
MPEG-4 using AMC is set as the video format, note that a separate MPEG-4 license is
required for each viewer.
The Motion JPEG selection has additional settings for Image Type, Image size and
Optional settings for configuring the video stream to suit your web page. Click Update
when satisfied.
The video server then generates the required source code for your configuration. Copy this
code and paste it into your own web page code.
