It turns out one computer has both netcam studios and manages the IP cameras so of I understand correctly 127.0.0.1 should be right. Furthermore, it works if you go to…
I can broadcast it here with the user log in credentials (see below) so why not via the code for my site?

Just not able to embed on the site
I found here - How can I change web server hostname - #6 by Ambertollers
I needed to change the localhost address in the code of the camera’s to the static IP. Did, done, works. Thanks!
Excellent! Now we know it works in WordPress also.
The site looks really fine with your fury friends

I thought it worked replacing the IP but it’s not…
not in wp or the static html page
ftp upload settings is red
Changed everything back. Works. Seems wp doesn’t like embedded video
the feed is choppy. how can I make it more smooth?
Hi David,
First, this is an open forum for learning from each other so I would very much like you to confirm if this works in WordPress or not?
Second, the choppiness. Most likely due to limitation in speed of the Internet connection. Video use a lot of bandwidth.
If the cams are connected to the LAN with wifi, check the signal strengths. Check also the bandwidth to your internet provider.
Check this setting
Uncheck High Q. Also test Single and Mutli view refresh rate if that will be better. To stream 4 cams live you probably need more bandwidth for the Internet connection. Alternative is to slow down your dogs ;).
Also, I forgot. Four cams in high resolution usually takes a lot of CPU power depending on the processor. What is the CPU load of your computer?

Yes, sorry. I had issues that was entirely my fault messing around with the code. It did work then I screwed something up but realized my mistake and fixed it. I am a Wordpress Developer and got it to work at the link below. What you need to do is apply the given < > code found provided by the NCS program and when in a wordpress page or post, DO NOT apply the code to the “visual” tab of the wyswyg text editor but put the code in the text tab. Also if you see the link below I was able to also use the static html page for larger viewing.

Hope this helps
Excellent, thanks a lot. Precisely the info that is so valuable for the community!

No problem. So what do you think the single and multi FPS should be set at? The CPU load is currently and has been at or around a whopping 98 percent with NCS bouncing around 65 to 75 percent. Ouch.
Also, what should I have the decoding settings in NCS at? Currently it’s at the default at Software_Internal. Should I use VLC?
That CPU load is way to high. You need to do some testing to find out what is best with the existing internet connection and what is acceptable for the web site.

So I dont screw up settings I did before, how do I exactly decrease the res in NCS? I am messing around with the recording and will take your advice about the decoding.
Resolution is changed in the camera. Enter the configuration of the csmera and you will find some menu for this. It depends on the camera. Either the camers can stream in only one channel and then you chnge the resolution for this. Or the camera can stream in several channels in different resolutions. So check in the camera and also how you connect it to NCS; Template, onvif or custom url.
Did all that. Per your advice I lowered the resolution. Should I have it be onvif or custom? ALso going to get a quadcore server to run it on monday and going to beef up my bandwidth.
If you can see the resolution change of the video in NCS then onvif or custom url is not important. A quad core and more speed is a good idea. NCS is not heavy on RAM so 4 GB is fine. A regular HD is also fine.
What camera do you have?
I am in Sweden and +7h so it is bed time for me :).
When you change computer the license for NCS will not work on the new computer. Go to Netcam Studio - Network Camera Surveillance Software and send in details so the license can be released on the license server. In the meantime you can of cause use the full potential of NCS apart from the red banners.
