So you should be able to use Xine or Mplayer from rpm.livna.org (or Real Player from real.com) to view the video from the camera. Try running "mplayer rtsp://192.168.1.115/"; substituting the proper IP for the camera. If that doesn't work then you may need to know an exact URL. (hint: try viewing the HTML on the web page and see if it shows the URL the ActiveX control is accessing.) It looks like the camera uses cron to schedule capturing still images or short videos which it places in an anonymous directory on a built-in FTP server or emails somewhere. (ftp://192.168.1.115/) I think you can also login via telnet under the username "user" with no password. (telnet 192.168.1.115) -- David Norris http://www.webaugur.com/dave/ ICQ - 412039
