Re: Turn your tablet to IP-camera with gstmjpg
 

FYI, I was just able to get a snapshot from the webcam on my phone! I tried the streming video but it doesn't seem to work, yet. This is really quite cool, to say the least.:p

Does the apache install load the web server whenever the N800 boots or is it a "run it when you what it" configuration? I wouldn't want to have a web server always running on the tablet draining the battery.

Haven't installed but taking a look into the apache deb file says it does.

sudo gainroot
update-rc.d remove httpd

^^ should stop it from running at boot.

Thanks qwerty12. For us know-it-nones, can you say a bit more? That is, if we enter your code in xterm and then reboot, I assume apache won't run. But then when we start the camera, it will begin to run? And then can we turn it off again without rebooting?

That is just for the apache web server, the gstmjpg package is seperate to it. I'll take a look now at that.

I took a look, gstmjpg runs nothing. I assume running apache starts up gstmjpg automatically.

Does it bother you that I can stop and start your camera? :D

Re: Turn your tablet to IP-camera with gstmjpg

Does it bother you that you got something resembling a slashdotting, on a scale appropriate to your tablet's power?
