What you need to use the Video features on this site |
On this site we use a number of different programs, Media Players, Plug In's and java scripts to demonstrate the results you can get by using our products and software, and also for the general running of the site. If you try to view a page or demonstration, live feed etc. without the correct add on then your browser should automatically give you the option of downloading and installing them. This is usually a fairly quick process and only neds to be done once. Aterwards you will be able to view the video streams on this site and any other site which also uses the same stream format. These plug ins are virus free and are downloaded directly from the Camsecure Website or directly from the manufacturers e.g. Microsoft so they are perfectly safe and will enhance your internet experience. You can always un-install them later if you wish. They are all Free plugins. |

What you may be asked to install JAVA: Java is a very common program and is very good because it works across all operating systems, even most modern mobile phones have Java installed so you can play games and view webcams and CCTV using Java anywhere. It will need to be installed on your PC (should be anyway) and will need to be enabled in Internet Explorer. Java is used to display streaming video in browsers that dont support I.E. plug ins such as Firefox and Safari. If your using Firefox or another browser and cant see images, check to see if there is a Firefox buton and click that to enable you to view the stream.......but remember Java must be installed. Get Java Now. Windows Media Player: This is also very common and should be installed as standard, but if its not, or if its disabled in your browser then you will need to go to the Microsofts website and download a free player. There are Firefox players that handle Windows Media feeds too. Streams fed by Windows Media Encoders usually buffer the video so you will see a fast stream but it will be behind the current time by up to 60 sec's depending on the connection speed at both ends. Flash and Flash Media Player: If you use multi-media sites at all then you will probably already have Flash installed. It allows you to view the fast and smooth animated graphics used by most modern websites and the new media player allows you to view live video feeds broadcast in the Flash format. There are Flash plug ins for Firefox browsers too. Get Flash Player Now. Active X Plugins: Active X controls for video streaming allow fast access to video webservers and IP camera's and certain streaming software packages. These only work correctly in Internet Explorer and you will be asked to download these if you connect to a page that uses one of these controls for video streaming. These will allow faster streaming than the others with a true live stream, that is with no buffering delay. In addition other features may be available such as Audio control and screen controls, pan and tilt control of camera's etc. Some Active X browser plugins are generic and will operate with many different applications and devices and some are unique to a specific device. At Camsecure we use Axis Media Control which is an industry standard viewer and Winwebpush which is also a standard fully featured player. If you are asked to download these please do so as they will greatly improve your viewing experience. If yo are a member of one of the clubs supported by Camsecure then you may be asked to download a specific Active X control for that clubs equipment and notification and instructions will be posted on that clubs page.
