Raspberry PI and webcam

wired203 · July 2016

I have been using repetier host for a while and decided to upgrade to a raspberry pi dedicated server. Everything has gone well and I installed the webcam according to everything I found. I can access both stream and still from another PC but inside of the repetier page I receive a picture of a webcam with a circle and line through it. I figured it may be due to not having a license but the page says all features are open in beta and a license isn't required yet?

Any ideas?

Also to make sure I didn't type in the address incorrectly I did copy and paste from my settings to another tab to test.

No, you should be able to access it during beta. I guess you used the wrong url in webcam configuration. For pi this is

http://127.0.0.1:8080/?action=stream

and

http://127.0.0.1:8080/?action=snapshot

for static. With that you should also see webcam in server.

That did the trick, thanks for the quick response.
