This is an area that seems to have been touched on a few times but I've not been able to find a solution.
I have an IP camera (Foscam FI8910W) which, being a highly neurotic parent, is aimed at our Bubs cot. It does the job and currently we have an old Lappy sat next to the TV - if she squeaks we only need to glance over to see if she a OK or maybe needs a tuckin.
Well, I had the bright idea of having a TV channel 'Cotcam' which could be used easily by anyone using a MP client. But, maybe it is not that straightforward and/or my current limited understanding of IPTV needs improving.
In VLC I can get a video stream (MJPEG) with http://myUser:MyPassword@cotcam.local/videostream.asf
In MP (TuningParameters/dvbip), I created a m3u file:-
#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:0,Cotcam
http://myUser:MyPassword@cotcam.local/videostream.asf
And enabled a DvbIP card using the created Service Mym3u.m3u
However, when I Scan for channels I get a 'Cotcam:No Signal' error and no new tv channels.
I have dug around to try and see whatsup but I wonder if I'm missing something basic....?
