Hi Aleks,
> As far as I understand is the Imgsrv a program which sends 'snapshots' > from the current picture, no streaming, right. > Yes, you are right. It is "image server", standalone web server that is designed to send out images from the camera internal circular buffer, it is not designed for streaming (not counting the multipart JPEG option). The goal of this program is to minimize copying and use minimal CPU resources while sending out images at the highest possible speed. > Do you know about the russian fast webserver nginx, he have similar > features as lighty but looks more stable? > No, I never used this web server, but I do not see any reasons to abandon lighttpd - it does its job nicely in the camera, the speed is limited by the 100 mbps network, supports FastCGI and we did not have any stability problems. So even if the other server is better I think it will not justify spending our limited resources to get some 3% of performance increase. > > http://www3.elphel.com/importwiki?title=Camogm > > Is there a possibility to get the streams to the network, maybe I missed > something on this site? > This program goal is to record video to the mass storage device (CF card, internal 1.8" IDE HDD, extrenal SATA HDD) connected directly to the camera, in that case the 353 camera is capable of recording at average data rate of 16MB/sec (limited by the CPU), it is 50+% more than possible over the 100 mbps network. Camogm can record over the network (i.e. using nfs share) but in that case the data rate will be obviously lower.

Bare RTP is insufficient fro streaming MJPEG data as it does not support more than 2040x2040 pixels - less than the sesnor resolution. RTSP (with live555 library) support larger frames. Andrey
