Epiphan recording - ceddix - 06.05.2025

Hi,

I have a customer that want to start and stop recording from a http request, and even feedback.

Got these url from the manager,

Code:
Start recording   http://192.168.0.5/admin/channel1/set_params.cgi?publish_enabled=on

Stop recording;  http://192.168.0.5/admin/channel1/set_params.cgi?publish_enabled=off

Feedback that shows if it on or off :    http://192.168.0.5/admin/channel1/get_params.cgi?publish_enabled=on

I want to have a button that turn on/off the recording and a feedback object.

Code:
require('socket.http')

socket.http.TIMEOUT = 15

value = event.getvalue()

if value == false then

   socket.http.request('http://192.168.0.5/admin/channel1/set_params.cgi?publish_enabled=off')

else value == true then

   socket.http.request('http://192.168.0.5/admin/channel1/set_params.cgi?publish_enabled=on')

end

Is is the right way to do it?

How can i get feedback to a 1bit object that shows 1 or 0?

Event script can be simplified a bit:

Code:
http = require('socket.http')

value = event.getvalue()

param = value and 'on' or 'off'

http.TIMEOUT = 15

http.request('http://192.168.0.5/admin/channel1/set_params.cgi?publish_enabled=' .. param)

You will need a resident script for polling the status (with non-zero sleep time):

Code:
http = require('socket.http')

http.TIMEOUT = 15

res = http.request('http://192.168.0.5/admin/channel1/get_params.cgi')

log(res)

Post what you get in LM Logs tabs when running this script.

Hi,

This is what I get when i run the feedback.

Code:
* string: <HTML>

<body>

  <h1>Credentials required</h1>

  <p>Username and password are required to access this Epiphan device. Reload the page and try again.</p>

</body>

</HTML>

Now I have the admin and password for the camera. But when I read this page, https://www.epiphan.com/userguides/pearl-api/Content/integrate/thirdPartyConfig/man_br_3rdParty_controlling_with_http.htm

I'm bit confused where to put the password, in the page they use wget? when they use admin and password to access the camera.

Where do I put the password in the http request?

RE: Epiphan recording - admin - 13.05.2025

Try putting credentials into the URL: http://user:password@192.168.0.5/...

RE: Epiphan recording - ceddix - 13.05.2025

Got the same message...

* string: <HTML>

<body>

Your device might use digest authentication mechanism. Try code from this post: https://forum.logicmachine.net/showthread.php?tid=1061&pid=9364#pid9364
