What I want to get:
The IP camera can record live via FTP on a PC.
This PC has the ftp server and a ftp client for testing the connection. I'm using Filezilla for both server and test client.
Explanation of my current configuration:
I have this camera in my current network, and there are no problems about connectivity. The ftp configuration of the IP camera is correct, as I'll show here:
There is a button called "text", which sends a test file so you can check if the connection is ok. Here is what I get, so the connection is working:
The red square in the screenshot shows the root directory of the admin user in the ftp (this user has full control on this root folder). When you click on test, the camera creates a folder whose name is the IP of the camera. Inside, it creates the sample file.
Ok, so for now I have shown you the networking configuration, this part of the project is working properly.
The next part is the configuration of the motion detect recording, and here is my configuration:
As you can see is enabled, along with the trigger recording option, and its "Upload to FTP" checkbox.
With all of this, the camera should start recording and sending via ftp to the PC when motion is detected. The problem is that this is not sending the video.
But, what is funny is that the "Trigger snapshot" option, that basically starts taking shots when motion is detected, works properly and sends the data via ftp to the PC.
What I can't understand is, what is the problem here? What is the difference between sending photos and sending live video?
Thanks in advance if somebody can help
