Hi NX

 

So i have successfully got Testcamera running 28 high resolution streams. However anything past that it starts to become unstable and drop connections. This is likely because its running on a low power X3421 CPU (28 cameras = 70% CPU). 

I want to have Testcamera run on a separate server to isolate any server resource/stability issues that could be caused by testcamera. I have tried to run it on a separate server but it just wont connect.

Is this software designed to be on a separate server than the NX server?

  Ryan, testcamera works on a separate server as long as:

  1. both servers are in the same local network
  2. testcamera uses the right network interface or network interface is not specified
  3. there are no firewalls which can block
  4. the server has camera auto-discovery enabled (it is enabled by default)

   

  If you don't see it working - can you please add: what command do you use to run the testcamera and what is network interface list (for Linux: ifconfig  | for Windows: ipconfig)
