AXIS 225FD - Video Streams
12
Other methods of accessing the video stream
Video/images from the AXIS 225FD can also be accessed in the following ways:
• If supported by the client, the AXIS 225FD can use Motion JPEG server push to display video. This option
maintains an open HTTP connection to the browser and sends data as and when required, for as long as
required.
• As single JPEG images in a browser. Enter e.g. the path: http://<ip>/axis-cgi/jpg/image.cgi?resolu-
tion=320x240
• Windows Media Player. This requires AMC and the MPEG-4 decoder to be installed. The paths that can be
used are listed below in the order of preference.
• Unicast via RTP: axrtpu://<ip>/mpeg4/media.amp
• Unicast via RTSP: axrtsp://<ip>/mpeg4/media.amp
• Unicast via RTSP, tunneled via HTTP: axrtsphttp://<ip>/mpeg4/media.amp
• Unicast via RTSP, tunneled via HTTPS: axrtsphttps://<ip>/mpeg4/media.amp
• Multicast: axrtpm://<ip>/mpeg4/media.amp
Note: <ip> = IP address.
Other MPEG-4 clients
Although it may be possible to use other clients to view the MPEG-4 stream, this is not guaranteed by Axis.
For some other clients, e.g. QuickTime™ the Video Object Type must be set to Simple. It may also be necessary to
adjust the advanced MPEG-4 settings.
To assess the video stream from e.g. QuickTime™ the following path can be used:
rtsp://<ip>/mpeg4/media.amp
This path is for all supported methods, and the client will negotiate with the AXIS 225FD to determine exactly
which transport protocol to use.
Note:
<ip> = IP address.
