streaming to browser

[fenyvesi]

The Arduino example program prints at start:
...
Starting stream server on port: '81'
...
After starting capturing I tried to get the stream on port 81 in a browser. It waits for data, but can't see anything. I tried Firefox, Chrome, Edge. VLC breaks down immediately.

Did I misunderstand something? Am I able to get the stream only in the web server window?

Thank you.

[fenyvesi]

Anybody?

[me-no-dev]

did you try http://[ip-of-esp]:81/stream ?

[fenyvesi]

Yes.
the IP is: 192.168.0.206
Firefox, Chrome, Edge:
http://192.168.0.206:81/stream

Result: Waiting for the server, nothing happens.

try to save the stream and analyze it offline

$ curl -o stream.raw http://192.168.0.206:81/stream
$ file stream.raw

and try to convert it to other format

I have the same problem, everything seems to work, the menu is there, but the browser shows the "broken image" symbol instead of picture.
However it may be a hardware problem: I ordered two modules, from the same vendor. One works, one does not. It seems to be a camera problem: If I switch the OV2460 camera from one to the other, it starts to work.

Same issue in chrome on android, but the plain ASOP browser works.
This is most likely a bug in the CSS/javascript/whatever.

Only worked for me if I disconnected from port 80.

I had the same problem with VLC and ffplay. No connection was working.

I've looked at the MJPG Stream and it turned out that the content and boundary delimiter are not in the right order. I've send a PR to espressif/arduino-esp32. Still waiting for acceptance.

I also created #120 against espressif/esp32-camera.
