MJPG-streamer is a very lightweight and resource friendly video
|
|
streamer. It also comes with uvc_stream, which is a very basic
|
|
streamer, and uvc_viewer, a simple gtk viewing application.
|
|
|
|
MJPG-streamer takes JPGs from Linux-UVC compatible webcams,
|
|
filesystem or other input plugins and streams them as M-JPEG via HTTP
|
|
to webbrowsers, VLC and other software. It is the successor of
|
|
uvc-streamer, a Linux-UVC streaming application with Pan/Tilt
|
|
|
|
Homepage: https://sourceforge.net/projects/mjpg-streamer/
|
|
|
|
Note:
|
|
|
|
The included uvc_viewer is a 32bit binary and therefore will not
|
|
work on other archs. You may use mplayer to watch the stream
|
|
using a similar command to:
|
|
|
|
mplayer -fps 30 -demuxer lavf -cache 256 \
|
|
"http://192.168.1.2:8080/?action=stream&ignored.mjpg"
|
|
|
|
You may find that mplayer is lighter on resources anyway. Also
|
|
the viewer leaves a properties.ini file in the CWD.
|
|
|
|
There is an included start.sh script which contains many
|
|
examples for using the mjpg_streamer application. (The www directory
|
|
mentioned should be replaced by /var/mjpg-www.)
|
|
|
|
You can find it and more in /usr/doc/mjpg-streamer-$version
