Foscam Question
I have the foscam FI8918W camera, and I have a bunch of them.
They really don't need PTZ functionality, but I'd love to be able to see them in ReadyNAS Surveillance.
Sometimes there is a trick that you can use such as the IP address being something that ends with "snapshot.cgi" or something like that in order to get this to work. It works in Kmotion but I want it to work in the readyNAS Surveillance program.
If my camera is at 192.168.1.151 port 5051 is there a chance that entering something like http://192.168.1.151:4000/snapshot.cgi might at least get me the camera's view, even if PTZ is not supported?
Has anyone had success with this type of thing at all?
Is there any hope of having these cameras supported? I've got them all over the place and really would like to use them.
