DVR Software for Video Streaming

Subject: DVR Software for Video Streaming
I can purchase 4 video cameras. I can purchase a DVR.
However, I do not know who makes any software to take 4 video streams into the DVR and either
(1) write them on a DVD which can be viewed on my G5, or
(2) provide a LAN interface from my G5 to the DVR to download the files over the LAN to my hard drive and view (and potentially edit) them on my Apple G5 and monitor system.
The PC world requires a PC software with ActiveX which of course is not available on Macs.
If my need can't be fullfilled, then is there any reliable way of getting ActiveX operational on a MacOS 10.4 G5 system?
Will this become easier when Apple fully migrates to Intel chips. Can any of the Intel chip Mac systems sold by Apple today using MacOS 4.X be used with ActiveX (or equivalent)?
Now, aren't these interesting questions. Will Apple move into 2006 with a bang and provide a wireless DVR????

    *"Apple states this is possible, but I don't see much in the ARD manual about using Java viewers."*
    As stated on the page you linked to...yes it's possible...with VNC client/server packages, not ARD.

    Is there any Software equivelant to silver light for video streaming on Ipad2?

  • Help implementing QoS for Video Streaming

    Hello friends!
    I am trying to implement a quality of service logic for a videoplayer based on the Brightcove API. As I have learned it's a better idea to use methods in NetStreamInfo class (eg. currentBytesPerSecond) rather than using a native bandwith check.
    E.g. (where nc is a NetConnection object)
    var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
    var nsi:NetStreamInfo = ns.info;
    var cbytes:Number = nsi.currentBytesPerSecond;
    use cbytes to evaluate which quality to chose...
    The problem is that streams are initiated (by videoplayer) using the Brightcove API and not directly using NetConnection.connect(). The BC API doesnt seem to give me any access to the classes listed above either, altough I'm certain it's utilizing them.
    Are there any Brightcove or video streaming experts out there that have a clue as to how I can access the NetConnection object used by Brightcove? Or if i can access the NetStream object or even tge NetStreamInfo object directly.
    best regards,
    Fredrik

    You don't have your egress queuing setup. You need to map your COS values to a queue, then you can allocate bandwidth to those queue's. This makes lower priority traffic wait while higher priority traffic gets transmitted.
    I have a few configuration examples on my site that may help you. Remember that the config that I have may not be the best for your network so you will have to figure that out yourself.
    http://goatnetworking.com/CiscoCSwitchQOSConfig.php
    Make sure that your QOS profile on the WLC is set correctly. I found one of my controllers didn't even have a value set in the profile, but the profile was applied and doing nothing.
    You need to apply the policy map to mark packets on the port where the video source is on your network.
    You need to Trust DSCP on all of your trunk ports or the switch will ignore the dscp markings.
    QOS may only be one of many issues that may be causing your problem. Your AP's could be overloaded with clients, your data rates may not be optimized, etc..
    I hope this helps

  • WAAS for Video Streaming Video Improvments?

    Hello everyone,
    the scenario is streaming a live video feed from a remote location with cable Internet  50Mbps down and 10Mbps up.  Since the cable connection is utilizing  the public Internet we want to do whatever we can to make the video stream as consistent as possible.  We want to deliver 1 video stream at 1080p.  Can WAAS help out in that scenario or is there a better way to go?  We will be using an H.264 vBrick encoder (that can change as well if there is a better way to go)                 
    Thanks in advance.  All replies rated.

    WAAS cannot accelerate any real time or compressed traffic.
    You just need solid bandwidth for that.

  • What is the best software for video fish-eye/barrel reduction?

    I recently bought a GoPro camera and would like to reduce the fish-eye/barrel effect on some of the video clips. I haven't been able to find any plug-ins or software for mac's that can do this. I was hoping to do all my video editing with iMovie but it doesn't seem to have everything I need. What do you recomend?

  • QoS and DSCP settings for Video Streaming

    So I've got this beautiful topology at home that consists of three WAP 121 and a RV320 as the default gateway.
    How should I tweak their QoS and DSCP parameters to optimize Video Streaming applications like YouTube, Netflix and such?
    Thanks community!

    Open the set up page of the router by typing the IP address of 192.168.1.1 or open Cisco connection go to router settings
    Then go to advanced settings and  then click copy password and hit OK ..once you on the router page
    Go to wireless and click manual after that create network name (SSID) Then set the wireless security as WPA2 personal
    Which would give you stabilize connectivity then upgrade the latest firmware on  the router and reduced the MTU to 1462..
    Unplug the power from  the modem and  the router
    Wait for 1 minute and plug them back wait for 1 minute and then check the speed .

  • RTC for video streaming?

    we are implement sap learning solution. we have a lot of audio/video content. it takes long time to buffering the video content before user can play them, especially at remote sites. we use EP KM database repository to store contents. is it possible to use RTC streaming functionality to speed up the buffering process for video? since RTC can be used for WebEx and video conferencing, we figured there maybe a way for use to use it to play video as well.
    Thanks

  • Router for video streaming

    hi,
    can anybody hlp me with the cisco 2800 router that supports video streaming?
    we have a customer that does online interview and we need to stream the interview from one point on the network to another.
    Big thanks

    Hi,
    video is done over IP so the router will carry it without a problem. You equipment/application could use unicast or multicast and you will need to give some more details about it if unsure how to do it.

  • IPad 1 3G wifi Model using original operating software and video streaming

    Anyone experience the following ?  My iPad 1 , 3G wifi model , using  original operating system software ... When using 3G , AT&T plan, when streaming video clips from sites like YouTube, tmz, xvideos, etc, although slow, all streams came back crystal clear, phenomenally clear , for some reason, every time , no matter if the clip was hd or not .  This doesn't happen when I used wifi.      Now that I have downloaded iOS 5.0.1 to my iPad, it's not the same.  Any help advice or comments, or anyone else experience this before?

    iOS5 is a bit slower on the iPad1.  And from what I'm reading, a tad bit slow also on the iPhone 3GS and 4.  All of these use the A4 processor, versus the A5 in the iPad2 and iPhone 4S.  So that may account for some of the slowness of the video playback....
    What would account for the crystal clear streaming videos when I was operating original iPad software using AT&T wireless plan?  All streaming video came back crystal clear, even though they weren't originally hd streams. 
    Like I said, iOS5 is slower than iOS4 on the iPad1.  Slower so can't decode the frames quickly enough before the next frame has to be displayed.
    Ane like I inferred, cellular data is inconsistent.  More users in your area will cause your speed to decrease.  You can't really guarantee enough bandwidth on a 3G connection in many areas.  Wi-Fi would almost certainly use a faster connection than 3G, thus the better video playback, regardless of iOS4 or iOS5.
    Bottom line: 3G in your area is probably just not good enough anymore.  iOS5 just made it worse for your already marginal situation.

  • Specs on olders minis to work well for video streaming

    What would be the minimum specs for a mini that would work well to show streaming video on a plasma/lcd TV? For example the video player for ABC.com seems like a real resource hog and I'll even experience freeze/delay issues on my 2.4ghz MBP from time to time. I am looking into older models and am wondering if I should avoid certain past models.
    Also, was the last gen mini 802.11G or N?

    iTunes 6.0.2 can do it for you if the video is already playable in iTunes. If not, search Google for Videora iPod Converter.

  • Need Software for Video Analysis

    Hi,
    I'm looking for a software program that will help me analyse videos with my team. We play videos in full screen modus and I will like to mark things on the screen (Draw pointers, arrows, or lines) kind of like at the Superbowl or any Sports TV programm (When on full screen modus of course). Can anyone help me out here?
    Thanks,

    Hi Mike,
    it would be great if you could help me out here.
    We play standard Movies recorded during games and practice - full screen from mac to TV - and would like to draw on and mark certain parts during play as well as when on pause. Kind of use a standard telestrator as seen on TV. The problem we currently have is that we usually cannot do this when on full screen mode. You have numerous software programs and offers, but which one simply fulfills our needs?
    Thanks,

  • An advanced compressing software for video confrencing

    I have recently developed a video confrencing software and I am using H264 codec for comprassion which helped me to connect 6 people at a time .
    but I understand that I need a more advanced codec that is capable of compression to a much higher degree
    that can help me to connect tens of people or possibly over hundred people at a time and offcourse this compressing software should work with flash.

    However, on the new iMac and os 10.8.2 it does not allow installing programs via discs
    Sure you can!
    The OS comes set with “Gatekeeper” activated.  This is designed to force you to purchase software through the App Store.
    Most people I know disable gatekeeper, that way you can install software from anywhere.
    Many software developers offer downloads on thier own web stores.  If you download software directly from the developer, not from the Apple App store.  Gatekeeper is simple to override for an individual app.
    Personally, I find gatekeeper to be “junior high school” I have disabled it completely.
    Open System Preferences > Security and Privacy > General, and choose "Anywhere" under "Allow applications downloaded from". You may have to press the padlock at the bottom left corner of Security and Privacy pane before being able to select Anywhere
