pherward Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 I wanted to know if there is a way to access any of the live traffic camera. It seems they use Adobe Flash to stream the local traffic video. Can I get a mjpg feed from the camera? or Live view? http://www.chart.state.md.us/TravInfo/trafficcams.php#Any input would be great. Thanks!

Cyknight Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 In more general terms, the c4 system has a built-in web image driver. So IF you can find a proper url that will give you a support image (jpeg/gif/bmp), you can have it show up on your system. It will be limited to a refresh rate of 1 minute at best, so don't expect to follow a police car chase, but it should give you a fairly up to date "shot" of the current situation.Good place to look for them is EarthCam, or at least that's what I've used in the long past - havn't actually done this in a long time.

RyanE Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Unfortunately, GIFs are not supported, and I'm not sure if BMPs are supported.JPG and PNG, I believe do work correctly.RyanE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
