wansview ip camera stream url for openCV

Question

I have just bought an wansview IP camera model NCM630GB. I am able to play it video stream in browser but i am not able to open its in open CV using video capture object. I have tried different solution already present on stack overflow but the actual problem is getting url of video stream. Can anybody tell what is the videostream url of wansview IP camera or any method to find it.

Answer 1

According to their documentation (page 22), the url should be:

http://IP address:port/videostream.asf?user=user name&pwd=password

Try it with VLC to see if you can get the stream. If succeed, then in OpenCV, append x.mjpg to the url, like this:

http://IP address:port/videostream.asf?user=user name&pwd=password?x.mjpg
