VideoStream / VideoCapture

I don't think you can improve the sluggishness with the app settings. The sluggishness comes from your network itself, especially your router. Network cameras always have a lot of sluggishness.

My best advice is that you shouldn't use a network camera if sluggishness is a concern for you.

Ok right! Maybe I’ll have better performances with an Ad Hoc connection?

Maybe, not sure. You just have to try it

Hi,

I can share my experience as well.

Different cameras have different URL, depending on the manufacturer set up.

I have documented my struggles here - viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1226&p=5676#p5676 .
Where I had to find the URL stream address of the camera and also to use username & password in my VideoStream module. It might help you in the future.

Regards,
S.
