Title: Embed DCS-920 video into web page?
Post by: BMLenertz on August 18, 2009, 02:04:46 PM: Does anyone know how I can embed the video stream from my DCS-920 into a web page I create on the internet? I can point users to the URL that connects to the camera, but then they have to pick a Java or Active X session and only then can they view the image with the D-Link camera interface. (No offense to the D-Link folks, but the interface isn't very pretty and it gives options to for "setup" and "maint", etc.).

Any assistance would be appreciated!

You can take out the Java script part and the HTML code where the object or applet is being created. Place the Javascript in the head and the object="cvcs" or applet ='cvcs' put that into the body.

Post by: Mackerel on March 29, 2010, 08:43:50 PM: Welllll, you do not need to supply a password. Try it locally first and you will be amazed that this connection does NOT require a password. I was stumped too.

Keep in mind, that if you use the cameras outside of the DMZ your will need to do some Virtual Server setup to allow your website to 'see' the cameras. You then will also need to enable the secondary port and use that port as the port-translation via the Virtual Server over the Router/Firewall...

with the DCS-920 itried this from my local network, filled in my local internal IP address and port # (the ones i manually put in to access when on the same network) as well as my serial number.

i was able to see the java logo loading real quick, but then no video ever displayed.
I tried in IE also, was prompted to allow blocked activex component, but after letting it through, just white html page.

is there anything else that i need to include within the html?

Post by: ionizer on April 17, 2010, 10:19:37 PM: nevermind, got it working when i manually copied from the existing admin page

turns out the device serial # listed there is not the same as the one on the back of the device

while it sucks that there is no password, in a way that hashed # is some form of protection from just being port scanned...but the risk is anyone who you give access to one time and then removed their access, they could make their own html code to get to it another time
