I have a project that will be using IP cameras with Wowza. The requirements of the project are to have low light capable IP cameras that also have speaker output on them so that we can send audio back to the cameras as well as stream the RTSP stream from the camera to other users.
The current camera that I’m testing with is a GeoVision camera. I’m able to grab the rtsp stream and then view the stream in all the test players and on ios with Wowza 4 just fine.
The client has requested that we grab audio from the User that are viewing the IP stream and send audio from the user back to the IP camera. After speaking with the manufacture of the GeoVision camera, the only support they have audio in is by using some LiveX component that needs to be programmed in C# and run on a Windows computer. Supposedly this component will communicate with the camera and push the audio back to the camera.
Basically I’m looking for recommendations on IP cameras that I can easily control and communicate with using Wowza / Java. I’d like to be able to create an audio stream on the Wowza server and then tell the camera where to grab the audio from.
