Setting up a webcam so you can see it on an android phone. Anyone done it?
tried... but got thrown out of the ladies toilets at bluewater by a very angry security guard.
the Reading Oracle security looks like it might not notice though... will let you know how it gos
I don't about android specific stuff but could you not setup a webpage that just shows what's displaying on the webcam? If you don't want other people to see it just password it all. Then all you would have to do is go on the webpage on your phone to see the webcam.
yeah thought of that chvk, but it seems a bit of a clunky way to do it.
Been watching too much Spooks?
maybe remote desktop? That way you'd just need a remote desktop app (pretty sure windows mobile has one so android probably does).
cheers chvck but I don't want a PC in the loop. I want to use the system for security for my campervan, and maybe as a reversing camera.
for your campervan eh?? whos borrowing it?? hmmm 🙂
ohhh I see now, sorry! My suggestions are pretty useless then!
IP CCTV camera + http://www.androidzoom.com/android_applications/communication/free-cctv-security-monitoring_mxli.html
Could work.
You'd need a network for the CCTV though, either a wireless one near where the camper is parked, or use a 3 MiFi unit.
Lots of ifs and buts, re bandwidth and power considerations though.

Or face time on a couple of iPhones / iPod touches
thanks Jeff, that's pretty much what I'm homing in on. Although it would've been nice to read actual experiences before groping blindly about on the bleeding edge.
