I’ve now sucessfully managed to get this working so thought I’d post on here in case anyone else attempts / wants to do the same thing.
Device = Foscam FI8904W (Networked CCTV Camera)
IP Address of Cam: 172.20.1.4
IP Port: 1234
Username=WiiMC
Password= (blank or insert your password into the URL)
Edit onlinemedia.xml (located in the appsWiiMC folder) and add the following line:
I had to use ‘%26’ instead of ‘&’ to prevent an error message in WiiMC and use the videostream.asf rather than the .cgi version. If you want to change the resolution to 320×240 use ‘resolution=8’ and you can reduce the frame rate by increasing rate= to one of the following:
Parameters:
resolution:(8:320*240,32:640*480)
rate: 0-23
0:maximum
1:20 fps
3:15 fps
6:10 fps
11:5 fps
12:4 fps
13:3 fps
14:2 fps
15:1 fps
17:1 fp/2s
19:1 fp/3s
21:1 fp/4s
23:1 fp/5
If you have an older firmware, remove the ‘%26rate=0’ part of the URL if you have problems.
This should work on Foscam FI8903 / 8904 / 8904 / 8908 / 8918 and any other camera that uses the videostream.asf (or similar) method of streaming CCTV images.
