Hi, i recently acquired a Hikvision camera and i am trying to use the RVMedia components with it. has anybody else used these components with a Hikvision camera? i can see in the demo that it works with axis and panasonic cameras but i cannot get it to work with a hikvision camera. any help would be much appreciated!

If this camera is a clone of some camera by a major manufacturer, or at least it uses the same programming API, it can be detected and used by RVMedia (as a camera of another manufacturer).
But if this camera produces not MJpeg, but H264 video stream, RVMedia may be able to detect it only if FFmpeg is available for the application.

HIKVISION question
Hi Budski,
Did you get HIKVISON camera working with RVMedia component because we are hoping to do this for an upcoming project.

In the current release of RVMedia (which will be uploaded when we finish testing it), we implemented a special support only for one additional type of cameras: H.264 Foscam cameras (they changed protocol significantly).
As for HIKVISION cameras, sorry, I cannot say if it supported or not.
If you have a specification of commands for this camera, please send it to me (richviewgmailcom), and I will be able to answer.
There are 3 levels of support possible:
- support for administration and movement
- camera detection (you specify CameraHost:CameraPort, and TRVCamera finds video URL)
- displaying video, if the exact video URL is specified (all cameras producing MJPEG and H.264 video streams are supported in this way)
