How to Capture Video Stream from Edi-Cam Server using C++ in openCV?

[YYeon1]

Hi everyone,

I am trying to do some processing on video being streamed from an Edi-Cam server (https://github.com/drejkim/edi-cam GitHub - drejkim/edi-cam: Video streaming on Intel Edison ) which is written in nodejs.

Is it possible for me to capture video stream from Edi-Cam Server using C++ in openCV?

The C++ coding that i wrote as follow:

# include

# include

# include

# include

# include

using namespace std;

using namespace cv;

int main()

{

Mat frame;

namedWindow("video", 1);

VideoCapture cap(" http://192.168.8.102:8080/video.mjpg");

if(!cap.isOpened())

{

cout<<"Camera not found"<<endl;

getchar();

return -1;

}

while ( cap.isOpened() )

{

cap >> frame;

if(frame.empty()) break;

imshow("video", frame);

if(waitKey(30) >= 0) break;

}

return 0;

}

When running the C++, it does not show me the video and show me "Camera not found".

However, in Intel Edison terminal, it shows:

"GET /video.mjpg 206 87.816 ms - 1248"

Thank you.
