No https capture support? http proxy info

Post by marcmerlin »

I'd like to capture frames from an airvision cam which has dodgy rtsp support.
Another option is to capture frames via https, like
https://aircam1/snapshot.cgi
but zoneminder doesn't seem to support https frame capture. Is that correct?

Ok, so I setup an http -> https proxy on my web server, and now I can get to
http://localhost/snapshot.cgi?chan=1
and I see a picture just fine with no authentication.

So that works, but requires an http server just to do http to https proxying for zoneminder.

Is there a better way?

Ok, so can I summarize/close this thread in saying that zoneminder does not support https image capture, and requires a proxy like in my previous post?

I don't know the answer to that because I never tried https.

But since zoneminder itself requires an http server you can use that same http server as your proxy, just an idea.
