Windows Media Server

  depending on the Capture Interface used, there are various configuration options for the Windows Media Server.

  See "WMV Streaming":/en/documentation/help/helpform?helpid=63 configuration options per interface

  Access Streaming Video

    The Windows Media Server is configured per Capture Device. 

    The video server has to run on a different port than the web server.

    Use !http://localhost:8080/current<font color="red">X</font>.asx to load the video stream.<br><small><font color="red">X</font> is the camera number</small> 

    This will redirect to mms://localhost:8090 where the video server is running.

    If the video server is off, current.asx will redirect to file offline.wmv in !AbelCams *img* folder. If it cannot be found there, it will take this file from www.abelcam.com<sup><a href="#1">1)</a></sup>

    


  See how to configure "Access from an External Server":WindowsMediaStream

Windows Media Server with !VideoCapX

  this server supports WMV on demand.

  "Windows Media Server with VideoCapX":img:http://help.abelcam.com/help/files/AbelCam.ctlVcxVserver.png

  if you set *Mode* to *On Demand*, the server will only be started when a viewer accesses the video stream

  While the server starts, the viewer will see the video file starting.wmv. This file will be delivered from

!AbelCams *img* folder if it can be found there, else it will be delivered from www.abelcam.com<sup><a href="#1">1)</a></sup>

Windows Media Server with !TyCapture
