Title: video feed does not show up in Iphone3 or 4 Safari browser
Post by: three_jeeps on March 08, 2011, 08:32:54 PM

After getting my cam configured and operational through dyndns, it does not display the video feed when I access it over the web through my iphone safari browser.   When I go to the cams website, I get the webpage but no video
If I select JAVA, I see a small black retangular box where the video would be.
If I select Active x, I see a large white rectangular window on the phone but again, no video.

Can someone clue me in on wha the problem is and how to fix it?
Thanks
John

Try using cam-viewer.com.  I've been using it on my webOS Pre2.  Since it's designed for iOS, it should work well for you!

I can view some frames, but have no PTZ control.  Logging into the cam via my web browser results in the same thing - since the camera needs to use an Active-X control in a browser, you won't get video if not using IE.  I do however gain camera control, so I can move the cam on one browser card, and view the results in another card.  Easy to do with webOS, but I'd really like to see a native Dlink app written for webOS!

MobileSafari can't run java or activex.  you need "an app for that".

IP Camera Viewer (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/ip-camera-viewer/id402656416?mt=8) worked fine with my DCS-930L.
