DCS2100 public camera ip's to see quality

Post by kitt3n »

Hi Everyone,

I'm interested in buying a dcs-2100+ and I'm looking for an ip-adress
where I can actually see the camera in action. I noticed lots of live-cams
having 'stuttering' movies - does the dcs2100 also do that? Or does it
depend on the upstream/wireless-part & number of persons watching
simultaneously?

Is there anyone here who could give me a link to a dcs-2100+
running at full quality/max fps?

Thanks in advance!

Roger

The video is MPEG4 (high compression) and using UDP the video looks very fluid.

I have upstream of only 25Kb/sec and am using medium quality video.

The quality degrades quickly with more than one person connected due to the low upstream :-(

Over LAN, using maximum resolution and quality.

I recon it will be difficult to get an IP from anyone as it is such a security risk?

It is? I thought you could allow 'public access' so everyone can see the
stream... and since no computer is involved, there is not much to hack
in an ip camera, or is there?

Maybe you could be so kind to email me a screenshot then of
max-quality, highest resolution ( gnarly-at-home.nl - replace
-at- with @) so at least I could see that :)

Btw, I found one dlink-camera - their flagship one at
http://www.dlink.com/products/liveDemo/?model=DCS-5300W
The resolution is pretty low and the framerate plain sucks...
How does it compare to your camera? Is it more fluent?

Thanks!
