从服务器到Android的实时mjpeg视频流

Question

I am trying to fetch mjpeg live video stream from server to android.I read this answer.it is very helpful to me.It works with this demo url.But, In my video stream it asking for username and password.

To set url into MjpegView:

 setContentView(mv);        
 mv.setSource(MjpegInputStream.read(URL));

MjpegInputStream:

public static MjpegInputStream read(String url) {
    HttpResponse res;
    DefaultHttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();     


    try {
        res = httpclient.execute(new HttpGet(URI.create(url)));
        return new MjpegInputStream(res.getEntity().getContent());              
    } catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
    } catch (IOException e) {}
    return null;
}

As in web browser whenever i open my server link..it asking for 'password' & 'username'.so where to put params in this read() ? and also want to know if my live video is in H.264 format. then how can i convert it into MJPEG format?Also its speed is very slow and not smooth.how to improve it?

Thanks in Advance!!

Answer 1

You are promted for a login because the webcam is password protected. Normally with webcams you have to pass the username and password as part of the URL. eg. username:password@ip.address.or.dyndns.com:8085/folder/stream.jpg?size=large where the number at the end is the port number.

it's been a time... but to login:

DefaultHttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
    try {

        HttpGet httpget2 = new HttpGet(url);
        httpget2.addHeader("Authorization","Basic " + Base64.encodeToString((USERSTRING:PASSWORDSTRING).getBytes(),Base64.DEFAULT));
        res = httpclient.execute(httpget2);
        return new MjpegInputStream(res.getEntity().getContent());

    } catch (ClientProtocolException e) {

        e.printStackTrace();

    } catch (IOException e) {

        e.printStackTrace();
    }
