The AZcendant IP Camera Filter is a "DirectShow Source Filter". It MUST
be used with a video capture application such as HandyAvi (preferred) or
some other application such as VirtualDub, WebcamXP, Windows Media Encoder,
etc.
The AZcendant IP Camera Filter allows you to view and capture video from
Internet Protocol (IP) Cameras when used in conjunction with an application
such as HandyAvi.
IP Cameras are cameras that send their video data over either a wired or
wireless ethernet/internet connection. This means that the camera can be
half-way around the world and you can still receive the video images that
are produced by the camera.
Wireless cameras such as the Panasonic BL-C131A can be set up around your
home or office and they will transmit video images over the
ethernet/internet to your wireless router without having to be directly
plugged in with an ethernet cable. All they need is a source of power from
an AC source or from solar power and batteries or from any other imaginable
power source.
IP Cameras have self-contained internet server software that makes them
behave like an internet server so the video images can be seen using an
internet browser (Internet Explorer, FireFox, ...) or by using other systems
such as HandyAvi with the AZcendant IP Camera Filter.
