With MVP 2 you can use 5 ip-cameras. There are 3 windows with full screen of single cameras and one window showing a dual-camera view.
The cameras are showing insode an Microsoft EDGE-Browser embedded in the window so you need to use cameras that can stream raw video to a browser without borders, menues and buttons.
I use five old discarded android phones whit no battery time and a small app called DriodCamX. Works well. I use it on a dedicated router, also an old smartphone without internet, just use it as a router.
Some things to have in mind:
- You can use the camera-windows to show webpages.
- Running the cameras on a slow net or slow cameras can make some lagging.
- There are always some lagging using ip-cameras and wifi. You have to pay a lot more to avoid it. Sorry.
How to use cameras?
On the top right you have some adressfields for your cameras. Use direct links to the video-stream. Click SHOW-button. Wait and it will show your camera output.
You can now zoom etc and adjust the camera-video to your screen.
Close the window by click the black border once.
On each Camera-window you have a small black square on the top left. It is a button to refresh the browser inside the window.
Notice:
The adress can not be adjusted without closing the application. Sorry for that.
But it is stored in settings as the application closes.
