Another members-only feature.  More on the way!

 

http://www.bedlington.co.uk/live.html

 

Please note that there is no recording available so it is pointless asking for "replays", "tapes", etc. - such data does not exist!

 

As Bedlington Live! is a members-only feature the tab will not appear on your main menu until after you've logged in.  It is one of the features casual site visitors are not made aware of.

 

Technical Note

 

We don't currently support Microsoft Internet Explorer for streaming (there's no proprietary .wmv support).  Windows users who are using IE should seriously consider downloading Firefox (or a similar open-source browser) for their own peace of mind - it's free!  Bedlington Live! also works in both the standard Android bowser and the Android Chrome one, if your smartphone and mobile data connection are fast enough. Although currently untested we'd guess that it works with pure Google Chrome devices too.

 

If you've got Apple or proprietary Microsoft hardware (such as a Windows Phone or Windows RT tablet) some other members will surely appreciate a report as to what works for you, and what doesn't.  If there is enough demand we could be persuaded to find time to address clearly reported compatibility problems.

I like it! LIVE! It looks quite busy out there.

thank you. GGG.

Thanks Vic but I can't take any credit, it's all Fourgee's project.

I saw GGGG up a set of ladders!  

Well ggg or gggg I like it, G,s

Hey that's cool! I shall wave at the camera later on!

Could we have a few more set up, so the ex pats can see what's going on?

Amazing how many people need a refresher on https://www.gov.uk/using-the-road-159-to-203/pedestrian-crossings-191-to-199

Yesterday I saw two vehicles park illegally right in front of the crossing, putting on 4-ways doesn't make it legal!

Done extremely well

 

Impressed that no need to install plugins etc etc... be interested in how this is working, HTML5? open source or?

 

Very well done

At the moment it uses mjpeg straight from the camera so the number of simultaneous connections will be limited. We're getting ready for a full site upgrade in the next few months with complete html5 support. At that point I'll probably look at encoding in some other formats and hand off the individual connections to another machine.

Actually this isn't totally true. There is some intermediate processing to add the watermark.

I just tried accessing it via html5 mjpeg port 81 but got no joy.. ah well..

 

Unfortunately my cams use proprietoary sw and I've had no joy pulling mjpeg from em with anything but their own software

 

Working extremely well for mjpeg. Many years ago I used to stream using the vp6 protocol (was up to vp8 last time I looked).. Worked very well, but had to install codec to view in browser. btw, java etc disabled on here and still your stream shows up excellent.

 

Agree with others, looks extremely busy up there!

 

Nicely done, a welcome addition to the site.

I will wave en route to the History Society in half an hour.

That is as we turn at the chemist corner and before we park to go across the road to the 'Coffin Chapel'

Sunset tonight is colourful.

Well I'm having a night in with the Scalextric!     

That was fun I feel like a kid again.

Who cares if no one is watching.

Scalextric by the chemist corner but not on the road , Bedlington challenge for the camera.

Bet the footy is the real reason Foxy.

GCHQ and the NSA will be interested, perhaps even NCC so they can send traffic wardens bearing tickets.

 

Anyway, I think it's great and look forward to many more installations.  All we exiles have had up to now was (out of date) Google mapping stuff.

 

Just seen (7.54pm) a couple pushing a pram ... and the bloke's got a mask on and he's looking at the camera.

Probably the Lone Ranger ,  we've got all sorts here in Bedders

No Maggie, its just a cover for the Leggy 23 year old Blonde with big boobs that calls in here when the missus is at the Beetle Drive   

As if you'd know what to do with a 23yr old Foxy...............apart from getting her to dial 999 when you stopped breathing!  

Just had a pint in the North.

Left after the Footy and before the pub quiz.

I should have waved again.

I did not think we could be seen but it is possible.

Lovely morning out there....

Do we watch it in real time or is there a delay ?  

Live!

Just have a quick peak almost every day, or night and I know I should grow up but when a person walks by the camera I just want to shout 'HOI'.

 

Is it only when you use a zoom & focus facility that you require a special licence for this type of 'surveillance' camera?
