Nice, at the top of the screen there is a broken image link for me though. Webcam works well.

I took the bait - even though I'm in Wgtn!!!

Won't display in IE or Chrome.  Message:

Interesting result from our dodgy corporate firewall:

Works fine for me, IE9.

Would be way cooler/more of a company demo if you could brace it more.  It's good quality but blowing all over the place Wink

Quality and frame rate look pretty good! :)

However, it does look like the original aspect ratio is 16:9, yet the video is being displayed as 4:3 for me.

Nice job! Better fix that wind shudder while you have a wind to test it with : ).

How is it mounted at present?

I'm getting "Server not found: rtmpt://120.136.7.85:80/rtmp", which I suspect is the corporate firewall here performing to its usual standard.

How did you see it's a 16:9 ? You are correct thought the original rtsp source is 1280x720 but the rtmp broadcaster is doing 4:3 for some reason. Would forward direct to the camera but that will either blow it up or use too much bw to the device ;)

Will have a look through the config and see if there is a way to restream the rtmp via 16:9

Seems a bit out of focus to me.

Those are cool cameras though!
