For like 2 or 3 years, i made a weather site. When there is heavy weather, my webcam will stream video through Windows Media Encoder. The only problem is i want to use PTZ Java applet only my website so users can can move my webcam.

Is it possible to only use Abelcam for PTZ and intergrate some javascript code into my website? Does somebody have some scripts which i can put on my site?

For now i am asking users to open 2 link.

The first one is http://www.oxize.nl/weercam
And the other is the link to Abelcam.

If its possibel i put the code right below the Webbased Media Player where i am streaming my video.

I hope someone can help me out with this.

You should probably take a lok at this page:

http://www.multicamserver.com/en/abelwiki/JavaApplets

I think the Java applet "abelabs" is what you are looking for. Also look at the Java webpages that are included in the default AbelCam site. View the page source code to see exactly how to embed Abelabs into a page.

Tried to implement it, but no success. Those applets are only for mjpeg i think? I get my stream from a Windows media Encoder which i am running on my server, because mpjeg take alot of bandwith. With WME i can use high resolution with nice detail on low bandwith (9kb/user). For the ptz buttons on my WeatherCam page (www.oxize.nl/weercam) i use abelcam with ptz only enabled.

I think its not possible to get a ptz java applet around the mediaplayer screen since it is from a other source (WME).

Guess i have to do it with those (cheap) buttons Wink

Hrrmmmm... AbelCamstreaming applet is indeed for MJPEG only. But Abelabs applet (the "crosshairs and red dot" PTZ controller) should not care how your video is being streamed. It is perfectly acceptable to embed Abelabs in your page and not embed AbelCamstreaming. I assume you are using a PTZ-Only Device in AbelCam, right? Should work.

I agree with you about WMV being the most efficient streaming method. The only reason I don't use it on my site is because of the buffering delay. My site is highly interactive and it does not look good when there is a 5 second delay between clicking a button and seeing the resulting action on camera.
