iX Talk

Good morning. I'm trying to activate a video stream between an Axis IP camera and my iX application. With the developing PC I didn't find any problem, with a Media Element object and this script line:

void Video_Opened(System.Object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
pbVideo1.Source = new Uri("axrtsphttp://192.168.1.101/mpeg4/media.amp", UriKind.Absolute);
}

Running the application on Windows 7 with iX Developer there's no problem. But when I try to run the application in Windows XP with ix Runtime I don't see anything e the stream doesn't start.

Any suggestion?

Thank's,
Ric

It could be an Ethernet issue connecting from this other PC. Are you able to ping 192.168.1.101?

I would also put a try/catch block around the function call to see what information you can get from the exception. The code looks something like this.

void Video_Opened(System.Object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
try {
pbVideo1.Source = new Uri("axrtsphttp://192.168.1.101/mpeg4/media.amp", UriKind.Absolute);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
}

}

Ok, it wasn't an iX problem but just caused from an old version of Windows Media Player and Axis Media Control.

Dear Sir,
When I try to add the scrip code I have this error message:
"Unable to convert implicitly type 'System.Uri' to 'String'.

Could you explain how solve this error.

thanks for your support.

System.URI is not supported on WinCE .NET framework. If you are not targeting a Windows PC or TxC, you will get this error. I currently do not know of a way to stream video to the Media player on a WinCE HMI. We are currently trying to find a way.
