Can't find mjpeg URL in new install

Post by Yostage »

I have an existing yawcam install on one machine and I can access the video stream at /video.mjpg.
I installed it on a different machine, and on that machine I can't access <ip>:8081/video.mjpg. Hitting the computer on http://computer:8081 directly works, and I can see the picture embedded there, but I need the stream URL so I can view it with a cam viewer. From looking at the html, it looks like it's something like out.jpg now instead of video.mjpg, but I can't get that to work as a stream. Is there a way to get to the video.mjpg-style URL in the newest version?

You can change the stream type in the settings to MJPEG, which I suspect will get you the /video.mjpg.
