hypothermic / foscamapi Goto Github PK

Hello again ! First thanks for the help with the other issue !

I would like to get an image from the foscam camera. I found your SnapPicture method but as I saw that we only get the http line to access to the image with an explorer.
I read the foscam class and I feel like this is the only method to get an image, am I right ? If not what would be the other option.
Moreover I tried this method and I just got some unreadalble characters :

Kind regards,

Martin

Hello,
I am a true newbie in java and I can't get FoscamAPI to work on my computer.

After installing the latest java update and running the latest release of foscamAPI in my command prompt, I get the following error : java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: jar (my command was : java jar foscamlib-1.08-RELEASE.jar)

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hello !
I'm trying to import this library on Eclipse or IntelliJ but it's not working. IntelliJ or Eclipse don't find the dependency.
Do you have any clue for beginners ?

                              `Foscam camera = new Foscam(ip.add.here, 88, username, password);
                                System.out.println("CHECKING.." + camera.getName());
				String ret = camera.snapPicture();
				FileOutputStream fout = new FileOutputStream("testfoscam.jpg");
				byte[] rawBytes = ret.getBytes();
				
				fout.write( rawBytes , 0, rawBytes.length );
				fout.close();`

............................................................................................................................................................
OUTPUT>
CHECKING..FI9800P
............................................................................................................................................................
The output shows name of the camera . But the file foscam.jpg "can not be opened" since its damaged.
Also, I tried retrieving the picture as bufferedImage but it came out as null. The ImageIO can not decipher the bytes!

Maven:

There is something wrong with the snapPicture() bytes
Q)

1. How to convert snapPicture() to a viewable BufferedImage in the application itself.

2. Is there any way to access the live video itself?

Thanks! Please help. Have been stuck on this since 2 days

Camera model and configuration :

• Foscam camera model : FI9816P
• IP configuration: static address
• Dev environment: Android mobile application

I encountered this problem when i was try to set the camera video settings from my android app, the other settings such as brightness, hue, saturation and sharpness all work except for the contrast. i checked the source code of the library, but i don't think there was a problem with it. is there any suggestion about the solution for this?
