Yawcam can't connect to my IP-camera

Post by Lars H. »

I have used Yawcam for a long time with a Microsoft LifeCam HD-5000 connected to an USB-port on my laptop, and it works fine. I now bought a IP-camera from D-Link, DCS-933L, Yawcam wouldn't connect to that camera. The camera is connected wireless to my router. This is what I get when selecting camera.

When I selcect 'IP Camera', this show up:

And by clicking 'OK', I get this:

Here the correct local IP show up, and I fill inn the user and password and click the OK. But all what happens, is a new frame asking for username and password.

So, please help me someone!

After some use of Google, I found the solution myself. If I added :8888/video.cgi to the local IP-adress of the camera, the preview showed up, and I was able to stream and output single pictures to my webpage.

If you try to connect to a DCS-5020 L Camera,
Please use this string: http://[IP-Address]:80/Video.CGI
