I bought a Zonet ZVC7611W "IP Camera" Newegg had on sale with the
intention of watching an area I can't see from the window near my desk.
They work ok with the Windows software, I can view the video images.
I can access it over our wireless LAN with Firefox from this F-12
computer and set all the configuration parameters without a problem and
in fact did so. But I don't know how to go about viewing the pictures.
Video applications such as VLC and Totem don't respond to the IP address
assigned via dhcp at the the wireless router, 192.168.1.51. Those
programs seem to want a file rather than an URL?
[bobg@box6 ~]$ vlc 192.168.1.51
VLC media player 1.0.4 Goldeneye

What log were?

work? The camera spec's are as below:
