OpenEye IP cameras using third party software like VLC media player (http://www.videolan.org). To connect the camera you may need to provide the stream URL. All OpenEye IP cameras are capable of delivering two RTSP streams, as well as streaming MJPEG over HTTP.
There are some challenges with connecting to OpenEye IP cameras over WAN (internet) connections because the camera streams video over RTSP. RTSP is an excellent protocol for media and is now used on many IP cameras (including OpenEye) as the default streaming option.

DDNS DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name Service) is a service that allows a connection to an IP address using a hostname (URL) address instead of a numeric IP address. Most Internet Service Providers use Dynamic IP Addressing that frequently changes the public IP address of your internet connection.
Mail The camera can send an e-mail via Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) when motion is detected or when the sensor input is activated. SMTP is a protocol for sending e-mail messages between servers. SMTP is a relatively simple, text-based protocol, where one or more recipients of a message are specified and the message text is transferred.
The camera can send alarm message to a specific File Transfer Protocol (FTP) site when motion is detected or when the sensor input is activated. You can assign alarm message to up to two FTP sites. Enter the FTP details, which include server, server port, user name, password and remote folder, in the appropriate boxes.
