Just one thing. Which _specific_ camera is this? perhaps an Axis 2100?
celle la meme
camera send a constant flux of image at 10 pict / secondes if i made an external wrapper ( i believe it mean that i have to download every picture from a server), the time it will take to dl is to long for having the same flux that the camera flux.
Well, I've used an Axis 2100 which can upload JPEGs at intervals of one frame per second (or was there a sub-second feature? - don't remember...). It also has a streaming CGI-module which is not usable outside a java applet or an ActiveX plugin. However, the CGI stream has been decoded and played as-fast-as-possible in Keystroke at one point (2 years ago?). I can ask the programmer if he can open-source it (if he's still around at Keyworx). I think it was really at a pre-alpha stage, and then he stopped developing it cause he didn't have the camera himself.
i've to do that for a performance the next week end so if you can ask your man to open again his program, i'm lucky and i've got one for testing who will work all day and allnight long during one week. i will ask for a way to him to work via ip for using the picture
Anyway. If you are running PD on Linux, enable FTP, then upload an image to the machine running the patch - at the fastest possible interval. Then load them with a frame-number. Viola. Should wokr if you don't need real-realtime. Or you could use 'wget' to pull it off the camera as fast as possible. I've got a shell-script around here somewhere that does that.
actually, a photohraph take a picture, axis 2100 record picture on a server, and a recursive wget download the picture but using a flux of picture direct from the camera (via ip) without needing to record it before would be great
A PD-object that could simply point to an IP and receive video would be delicious, though. :-)
this camera is great, it diffuse itself (without computer) a flux of image, and it's possible to read the flux via ethernet cable in firefox for example.
Sounds like an Axis, alright.
is it hard for the future to build an object that look the ethernet port for such material?
Well, depends on the format and how you want to use it. You need to know the format and it's destination (gem, pdp, gridflow, framestein,, etc.). It is most likely a web-server with some compressed video data going over the connection to a specific client-plugin in the web-browser. Knowing which camera and which format would help a lot, not to mention which platform you are on. It's not trivial, as far as I know. At minimum you need to know the format and the protocol. After that, it depends on which OS you are using.
i intend to use the pict in gem because pdp doesn;t work with me neither gridflow neither framestein and i use osx3
appart: ctlin doesn't work under osx do you have a solution for getting a midi in controller information when pd is rumming under osx
excuse my poor english
No worries.
thank you all
Hope this helps. :-)
hope it will continue
