IP Camera -

[Bob Goodwin]

Does anyone have any experience with the 
Foscam C1 IP camera. Like many things it 
wants Outlook Explorer for set up and 
operation, perhaps my iPhone would work? 
But I really want to deal with it via my 
Fedora 25 workstation.

New, out of the box my router assigns it 
an address 192.168.1.15 and I can access 
that from Firefox but it wants a .exe 
plugin installed, I can download that 
but I don't expect that to work on my 
system.

I've tried VLC which works with some 
much older cameras that use mjpg, but I 
haven't been able to find a string that 
doesn't produce an error and worse yet 
locks up VLC for an annoying period of time.

Some googling suggeststhat rtsp is 
required, dnf install rtsp results in 
not available ...

What do I have to do to make this work?

Bob
