I have an Axis 205 IP camera with a built in web browser. When i tried
<br/>mplayer <a href="http://10.10.1.1/mjpg/video.mjpg" target="_blank">http://10.10.1.1/mjpg/video.mjpg</a> (10.10.1.1 is the ip address of the camera)mplayer crashes. I saved a segement of the stream and it looks like this <a href="http://134.74.16.64/wwwa/web/hardware/video.mjpg" target="_blank">http://134.74.16.64/wwwa/web/hardware/video.mjpg</a>
<br/>Can somebody tell me whats wrong ? Has anybody used to playback the streming data from an IP Camera?
<br/>Thanks in Advance.

For streaming, udp (rtp,rtsp) protocols are used, not http (port 80), you have to open some other port for streaming, your camera should be able to do that so look at all options.
