URL user/pass access and user/pass change

Post by hubacekp »

Hello,

I have a web portal where I wish to allow users to connect any USB/IPcam using Yawcam to unify the access for any cam, even ordinary composite video cameras via a dongle.

Question 1:
when I set an user/pass, is it possible to access directly typing the user/pass into url like some ip cam allows:
http://james:1234@123.123.123.123:88/mjpg/video.mjpg
Is it possible?
When not, can someone add it? Could be usefull for others as well :-)

Question 2:
I have lot of users in my MySQL and everyone has another user/pass. Yawcam has possibility to set a list of users, but when in my MySQL user changes their password, I need to refresh the same in my Yawcam instance
Is it possible to change the pass directly using an URL command?
When not, can someone add it? Could be usefull for others as well :-)

As I realy need this feature, I am ready to pay a donation!

Regards,
PH

Bump.

Is this possible? I'd like to log in to my stream with username and password in the URL.

Example: http://james:1234@123.123.123.123:88/mjpg/video.mjpg

Yes, it's possible. Enable MJPEG and use the url on format:
http://user:password@[IP-number]:[port-number]/video.mjpg

for example:
http://user:password@192.168.0.198:8081/video.mjpg
