You can use OpenCV VideoCapture class to open video streaming from web

Using

VideoCapture cap;
cap.open(192.168.1.180/?action=stream?dummy=param.mjpg);

And see some links with this thread.

Just try this link working for me in vs 2010 cap.open("http://devimages.apple.com/iphone/samples/bipbop/bipbopall.m3u8?dummy=param.mjpg");. Also see the answer here http://answers.opencv.org/question/23030/dynamic-display-multiple-video-feed-from-multiple/?answer=23043#post-id-23043

thanks! I'm using your cord: cap.open("http://devimages.apple.com/iphone/samples/bipbop/bipbopall.m3u8dummy=param.mjpg"); the URL can open in browser,but can not open in vs2010 use you code :cap.open(URL); whether should I do some setting with my vs2010 ? or the version problem of my opencv . my opencv version is 2.3.0

Mat grains(480,640,CV_8UC3,Scalar::all(0)); const string videoStreamAddress1 = "http://devimages.apple.com/iphone/samples/bipbop/bipbopall.m3u8?dummy=param.mjpg"; //From mjpeg streamer const string videoStreamAddress2 = "http://devimages.apple.com/iphone/samples/bipbop/gear1/prog_index.m3u8?dummy=param.mjpg"; //From mjpeg streamer

if(!vcap1.open(videoStreamAddress1)) { cout << "Error opening video stream1" <<endl; }
after execute this cord the screen print Error opening video stream1 , if i'm using browser I can capture webcam. but can't capture using vs2010

The above code works fine for me on Windows7 vs2010 environment. Make sure that you are able to open video file from your PC. If no there are some issue with ffmpeg. See this link

thank you very mach! I have get webcam .I'm using ubuntu os . the ffmpeg is a encoding lib . it is using for linux not windows , so I think there is some error with my vs 2010 not ffmpeg

Then just try with command line, so that you can assure is it the problem of vs2010. And this link might be helpful.

Hello. I am able to get the above code to work. I would like to get a different type of stream to pipe in to opencv. I have an html5 canvas on a webpage served at 127.0.0.1:5555 that I am loading a stream into with the following code:

    <div id="droneStream" style="width: 640px; height: 360px"></div>

     new NodecopterStream(document.getElementById("droneStream"));
     var myImage = canvas.toDataURL("image/png");

I want to pipe that stream from the page into opencv in the way that you have accomplished above. Do you know how to structure the url to grab the image stream? Right now I have a URL that I know is wrong, but here is my opencv code:

capture.open("http://127.0.0.1:5555/#droneStream");

Thanks for your help.

hi Talamantez.

since this is not an answer, but another question, - would you be so nice to remove this, and start your own question ? (else it gets totally confusing)

reading theFAQ will be helpful, too.
