Wow! Excellent... Just set this up to use with an Axis 207MW .. and it works a treat!!! Great effort for first release. I might suggest to Thecus that they offer the end user an additional example for capturing the .jpg images, as I had to enter the following: 192.168.1.99/axis-cgi/jpg/image.cgi?resolution=1280x1024as the webpage that the module visits in order to grab the jpg screenshot as opposed to the example that you get in the module when you select Axis of: http://Host name or http://IP address/jpg/image.jpg GREAT WORK THECUS!...and thanks for the notification Spiken.

I'm having some issues with this module. it seems to be working just fine even tho I'm using a unsupported camera. It takes the pictures and stores them and what not.
But, when it comes to compressing the images into a video file, it makes the file, deletes the images, and the video file ends up not working.
Quicktime pops up a error without even opening it, saying its not a video file. VLC seems to play it, with errors, but its the same first image just sitting there. Ive also tried re-encoding it but that just leaves me with the same single frame that VLC tried to play.
I cant see how this would be a problem with the camera, as the individual images are stored just fine. I'd even be happy if it tried to make the video file but left the pictures behind.
Anyone else experience this? Am I missing some other mystery module that needs to be installed for it to encode the video right?
