NOTE:
The CCFC has limited bandwidth and can only support one viewer at a time at high
resolution; lower resolutions may allow more users, depending on network connectivity.
14.1.1.1 Sources
As shown in
(p. 31), there are three different stream sources, which provide three
different video resolutions from the camera.

Video Codec is used for streaming mpeg4 at 720p; this can result in lower quality resolution than the original
video.
14.1.1.2 Embedding
Use the following sample code to embed the video stream into web page HTML. Change the
width, height, and URL according to the application needs. See
https://wiki.videolan.org/Documentation:WebPlugin/
for more information.
<embed id="vlcEmb"
width="1280"
height="720"
target="rtsp://192.168.1.78/ipcam/mpeg4"
pluginspage=http://www.videolan.org type=”application/x-vlc-plugin”>
NOTE:
In the embed code, change 192.168.1.78 to the IP address of the CCFC being used.
14.1.2 UPnP discovery
The CCFC supports UPnP for device discovery. Therefore, the CCFC will appear in the Windows
Network panel with a name such as CCFC
-9999
, where
9999
is the actual serial number of the
camera.
This feature makes it possible to find the camera after connecting it to an existing network using
DHCP, regardless of whether the connection is wired via Ethernet or Wi-Fi.
