Optional parameters for Images and JPEG Streams

Various settings can be set on demand.

Video Size

Size Parameter
size sets height and width of the image. It scales your images to any size
Examples:
JPEG stream: http://localhost:8080/current.mjpg?size=640x480
scaled screen shot http://localhost:8080/current.jpg?size=320x240
Height Parameter
the height parameter sets the height of the image and maintains aspect ratio
Examples:
JPEG stream: http://localhost:8080/current.mjpg?height=100
Width Parameter
the width parameter sets the width of the image and maintains aspect ratio
Examples:
JPEG stream: http://localhost:8080/current.mjpg?width=200

note: height and width are not available for screen shots

Picture border

you may request a picture with a frame around it. The image will be scaled to fit the remaining space.

borderwidth=w
w = width of the border in pixels. Values 0-99 are allowed
bordercolor=RrGgBb?
RGB value of the border color. Example: bordercolor=FF0000 for a red border

Examples:

black border http://localhost:8080/current.jpg?borderwidth=5&bordercolor=000000
light blue http://localhost:8080/current.jpg?borderwidth=2&bordercolor=8888FF

Picture border is only available for current.jpg, not for screen shots or motion JPEG streams.

Frame rate

all JPEG streams can stream at a selectable frame rate. The maximum frame rate is defined for the video device in Devices

To set the frame rate on demand, define the fps parameter.

Examples:

http://localhost:8080/current.mjpg?fps=2
http://localhost:8080/screen.mjpg?fps=0.5
http://localhost:8080/motion.mjpg?fps=15

Selection for replay of stored shots

to filter picture replay, use the filter parameter:

Example:

http://localhost:8080/motion.mjpg?filter=20051019*
this will show pictures taken on Oct 19th 2005 (if pictures were save with time based names)

Combine parameters

to use more than one parameter in a request, combine them using &

Example:

http://localhost:8080/screen.mjpg?size=640x480&fps=1
this will show your desktop sized to 640x480 and refreshed once per second
