Lower resolution steam or snapshots

[danl]

Hi, I have the IP2M-841. Is there a way to access a lower resolution steam or lower res snapshot? At home, I don't mind using the 1080 stream but that uses alot of bandwidth if I'm on mobile data. Is it possible via the SDK?

Thanks for the quick reply. I'm not sure how to use that thread. I'm just a user, not a developer.

I did find how to get the snapshot via the SDK.

Code: Select all

http://<cam ip address>/cgi-bin/snapshot.cgi

But it always gives me a 1920x1080 image, and being on limited mobile data, I'd like to avoid the video stream as much as possible. Prefer if I can fetch a lower resolution image like 640x480.

Are there any get params I can use like the following?

Code: Select all

http://<cam ip address>/cgi-bin/snapshot.cgi?width=640&height=480

Oh I might have found it. Is it this?

Code: Select all

http://192.168.1.108/cgi-bin/configManager.cgi?action=setConfig&table.VideoOut[1].Mode.Width=640&table.VideoOut[1].Mode.Height=480
