Chapter 1
Introduction
This Chapter provides details of the Network Camera's features, components
and capabilities.
Overview
The Network Camera has an Integrated Microcomputer and a high quality CMOS digital-
Image-Sensor, enabling it to display high quality live streaming video over your wired LAN,
the Internet, and for the Network Camera, an 802.11g Wireless LAN.
Using enhanced MPEG-4 technologies, the Network Camera is able to stream high quality
video and audio directly to your PC. The high compression capabilities of MPEG-4 reduce
network bandwidth requirements to amazingly low levels.
A convenient and user-friendly Windows program is provided for both viewing and recording
video. If necessary, you can even view video using your Web Browser, on a variety of software
platforms.
Figure 1: Network Camera
Features
• Standalone Design. The Network Camera is a standalone system with built-in CPU and
Video encoder. It requires only a power source and a connection to your LAN or Wireless
LAN.
• Dual Video Support. The Network Camera can support both MEPG4 and MJEPG video
for different image compression.
1
![](/img.php?id=1319960&img=bg5.png)
2
• Stream Live Video to Multiple Users. The MPEG4 encoder and HTTP server built
into the camera generate a ready-to-view video stream. Just connect to the camera using
your Web browser or the provided Windows utility to view live video.
• Suitable for Home, Business or Public Facilities. Whether for Home, Business or
Public Facility surveillance, or just for entertainment and fun, the Network Camera has the
features you need.
• Multi-Protocol Support. Supporting TCP/IP networking, SMTP (E-mail), HTTP and
other Internet related protocols, the Network Camera can be easily integrated into your
existing network.
• Easy Configuration. A Windows-based Wizard is provided for initial setup.
Subsequent administration and management can be performed using a standard web
browser. The administrator can configure and manage the Network Camera via the LAN
or Internet.
• Viewing/Recording Utility. A user-friendly Windows utility is provided for viewing
live video. For periods when you are absent, or for scheduled recording, this application
also allows you to record video to an ASF file on your PC. The recorded files are in a
standard Windows Media format, and thus usable by a wide variety of programs if
required.
• Motion Detection. This feature can detect motion in the field of view. The Network
Camera will compare consecutive frames to detect changes caused by the movement of
large objects. This function only works indoors due to the sensitivity of the CMOS sensor.
When motion is detection, an E-mail alert can be sent, or some other action may be
triggered.
• Flexible Scheduling. You can limit access to the video stream to specified times using
a flexible scheduling system. The Motion Detection feature can also have its own schedule,
so it is active only when required.
• Syslog Support. If you have a Syslog Server, the Network Camera can send its log data
to your Syslog Server.
• Audio Support. You can listen as well as look! Audio is encoded with the video if
desired. You can use either the built-in microphone or an external microphone.
Internet Features
• User-definable HTTP port number. This allows Internet Gateways to use "port
mapping" so the Network Camera and a Web Server can share the same Internet IP
address.
• DDNS Support. In order to view video over the Internet, users must know the Internet
IP address of the gateway used by the Network Camera. But if the Gateway has a dynamic
IP address, DDNS (Dynamic DNS) is required. Since many existing Gateways do not
support DDNS, this function is incorporated into the Network Camera.
• NTP (Network-Time-Protocol) Support. NTP allows the Network Camera to
calibrate its internal clock from an Internet Time-Server. This ensures that the time stamp
on Video from the Network Camera will be correct.
Security Features
• User Authentication. If desired, access to live video can be restricted to known users.
Users will have to enter their username and password before being able to view the video
stream. Up to 5 users can be entered.
• Password-Protected Configuration. Configuration data can be password protected, so
that it only be changed by the Network Camera Administrator.

Wireless Features (Wireless Model Only)
• Standards Compliant. The Network Camera complies with the IEEE802.11g (DSSS)
specifications for Wireless LANs.
• Supports both 802.11b and 802.11g Standards. The Network Camera supports both
802.11b and 802.11g standards.
• Speeds to 54Mbps. All speeds up to the 802.11g maximum of 54Mbps are supported.
• Wired and Wireless Network Support. The Network Camera supports either wired or
wireless transmission.
• WEP Support. Full WEP support (64/128 Bit) on the Wireless interface is provided.
• WPA/WPA2 Support. The WPA Personal/WPA2 Personal standard is also supported,
allowing advanced encryption of wireless data.
• WPS Support. WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) can simplify the process of connecting any
device to the wireless network by using the push button configuration (PBC) on the
Wireless Access Point, or entering a PIN code if there's no button.

Making Video available from the Internet
If your LAN is connected to the Internet, typically by a Broadband Gateway/Router and
Broadband modem, you can make the Network Camera available via the Internet. You will
need to configure your Router or Gateway to allow connections from the Internet to the camera.
Router/Gateway Setup
Your Router or Gateway must be configured to pass incoming TCP (HTTP) connections (from
Internet Viewers) to the Network Camera. The Router/Gateway uses the Port Number to
determine which incoming connections are intended for the Network Camera.
This feature is normally called Port Forwarding or Virtual Servers, and is illustrated below.
The Port Forwarding/Virtual Server entry tells the Router/Gateway that incoming TCP
connections on port 1024 should be passed to the Network Camera. If necessary, check the
user manual for your Router/Gateway for further details.
Figure 23: Connecting via the Internet
The "Port" for the Port Forwarding / Virtual Server entry
above is the " Secondary Port" number specified on the
Network screen of the Network Camera.
![](/img.php?id=1319960&img=bg1e.png)
27
Network Camera Setup
The Network Camera configuration does NOT have be changed, unless:
• You wish to change the port number from the default value (1024).
• You wish to use the DDNS (Dynamic DNS) feature of the Network Camera.
HTTP Port Configuration
Normally, HTTP (Web) connections use port 80. Since the Network Camera uses HTTP, but
port 80 is likely to be used by a Web Server, you can use a different port for the Network
Camera. This port is called the Secondary Port.
The default Secondary Port is 1024. If you prefer to use a different port number, you can
specify the port number on the Network Camera's Network screen, as shown below.
Figure 24: Network Screen
See Chapter 5 - Web-based Management for further details on using the Network screen.
Viewers need to know this port number in order to connect
and view live Video, so you must inform viewers of the
correct port number.
DDNS (Dynamic DNS)
Many internet connections use a "Dynamic IP address", where the Internet IP address is
allocated whenever the Internet connection is established.
This means that other Internet users don't know the IP address, so can't establish a connection.
DDNS is designed to solve this problem, by allowing users to connect to your LAN using a
domain name, rather than an IP address.
To use DDNS:
1. Register for the DDNS service with a supported DDNS service provider. You can then
apply for, and be allocated, a Domain Name.
2. Enter and save the correct DDNS settings on the DDNS screen of the Network Camera.
3. Both Router and Camera should use the same port number for DDNS service.
![](/img.php?id=1319960&img=bg1f.png)
28
Figure 25: DDNS Screen
4. Operation is then automatic:
• The Network Camera will automatically contact the DDNS server whenever it detects
that the Internet IP address has changed, and inform the DDNS server of the new IP
address.
• Internet users can then connect to the camera using the Domain Name allocated by the
DDNS service provider.
Example: http://normanyu123456789.dyndns.org:6016
normanyu123456789.dyndns.org is domain host name. 6016 is the port number.
![](/img.php?id=1319960&img=bg20.png)
29
Viewing Live Video via the Internet
Clients (viewers) will also need a broadband connection; dial-up connections are NOT
recommended.
Viewing Live Video Using your Web Browser
If using your Web browser, you need to know the Internet IP address (or the Domain name) of
the camera's Router/Gateway, and the correct port number.
Enter the Internet address of the Router/Gateway, and its port number, in the Address (or
Location) field of your Browser.
Example - IP address:
HTTP://203.70.212.52:1024
Where the Router/Gateway's Internet IP address is 203.70.212.52 and the "Secondary
Port" number on the Network Camera is 1024.
Example - Domain Name:
HTTP://mycamera.dyndns.tv:1024
Where the Router/Gateway's Domain name is mycamera.dyndns.tv and the "Secondary
Port" number on the Network Camera is 1024.
Viewing Live Video with the Viewing/Recording Utility
If using the Windows Viewing/Recording Utility, the details of the Network Camera must be
entered on the Camera Setup screen.
Figure 26: Add Camera from Internet
See Chapter 6 - Window Viewing/Recording Utility for full details on using the Windows
Viewing/Recording utility.
![](/img.php?id=1319960&img=bg21.png)
30
Motion Detection Alerts
The Motion Detection feature can generate an Alert when motion is detected.
The Network Camera will compare consecutive frames to detect changes caused by the
movement of large objects.
But the motion detector can also be triggered by:
• Sudden changes in the level of available light
• Movement of the camera itself.
Try to avoid these situations. The motion detection feature works best in locations where there
is good steady illumination, and the camera is mounted securely. It cannot be used outdoors
due to the sensitivity of the CMOS sensor.
Note: The Motion Detection settings can only be configured while using IE browser.
To Use Motion Detection Alerts
Using the Web-based interface on the Network Camera, select the Motion Detection screen,
then configure this screen as described below.
Figure 27: Motion Detection
1. Enable the Motion Detection feature.
2. Set the area or areas of the video image to be examined for movement. You can define up
to 4 areas, and set the motion threshold individually for each area.
3. If using a schedule, define the desired schedule in Event Trigger screen.
4. Save your changes.
5. Select the E-Mail screen to have alerts sent by E-mail:
• Enable and enter at least one (1) E-mail address
• Select or enter the desired options for Video Attachment, Show "From" as and Subject
fields.
![](/img.php?id=1319960&img=bg22.png)
31
• Enter details of the SMTP Server used to send the E-mail.
If the Motion Detection feature is enabled, but E-Mail is not
enabled, then the only action when motion is detected is to
log this event in the system log.

This means that other Internet users don't know the IP address, so can't establish a connection.
DDNS is designed to solve this problem, as follows:
• You must register for the DDNS service with a DDNS service provider. The DDNS
Service provider will allocate a Domain Name to you upon request.
• The DDNS settings on the DDNS screen above must be correct.
• The Network Camera will then contact the DDNS server whenever it detects that the
Internet IP address has changed, and inform the DDNS server of the new IP address. (The
Check WAN IP Address determines how often the Network Camera checks if the Internet
IP address has changed.)
This system allows other internet users to connect to you using the Domain Name allocated by
the DDNS service provider.

Chapter 7
Troubleshooting
This chapter covers the most likely problems and their solutions.
Overview
This chapter covers some common problems that may be encountered while using the Network
Camera and some possible solutions to them. If you follow the suggested steps and the
Network Camera still does not function properly, contact your dealer for further advice.
Problems
Problem 1: I can't connect to the Network Camera with my Web Browser to
configure it.
Solution 1: It is possible that your PC's IP address is not compatible with the IP
address of the Network Camera.
Use the Windows utility to configure the Network Camera with a valid IP
address.
Problem 2: The Windows utility doesn't list any Network Cameras.
Solution 2: Check the following:
• The Network Camera is installed, LAN connections are OK, it is
powered ON and startup is complete.
• Ensure that your PC and the Network Camera are on the same network
segment. (If you don't have a router, this must be the case.)
• Ensure that your PC has the TCP/IP network protocol loaded. In
Windows, this is done by using Control Panel-Network.
• If an entry for TCP/IP -> Network card is not listed, use Add -
Protocol - Microsoft - TCP/IP to add it.
• You then need to select the new entry (TCP/IP -> Network card),
click Properties, and configure the IP Address tab.
• If your LAN has a DHCP Server, you can select "Obtain an IP
Address automatically". Otherwise, you must select "Specify an
IP Address", and enter values for IP Address, Subnet Mask, and
Gateway. All devices on your LAN must use compatible values.
Remember that each device needs a unique IP Address, and the
same Subnet Mask.
Problem 3 When I try to connect to the Network Camera, I get prompted for a
user name and password.
Solution 3 You SHOULD be prompted for a user name and password if trying to
access the Administration menu.
Enter the Administrator ID and Password set on the Maintenance screen.
If you are just trying to view Video, the User Name/Password prompt

Playback Program - for Recordings Playback
To access the saved recordings of the Cameras, click Playback button in the Monitor main
screen, then you will see a screen like following.
Figure 51: Playback Screen
Searching Recorded Streams Files
Select Camera. Select the desired camera from the list.
Recording Methods. Select the type of the recorded file from the drop-down list that you wish
to view.
Start Date/Time. The start date and time the recordings will be searched
End Date/Time. The end date and time the recordings will be searched.

Zoom Out. To zoom out on a section of the window, click this icon.
76
indicates that the Administrator has restricted access to specified users.
Ask the Administrator for your User Name and Password.
Problem 4 I can't connect to the Network Camera using a Wireless connection.
Solution 4 1) If a LAN cable is connected to the LAN port, the Wireless interface is
disabled. Only one interface can be active.
2) Check that your PC and the Network Camera have compatible Wireless
settings.
• Mode (Infrastructure or Ad-hoc) must be correct.
• ESSID must match.
• WEP settings must match.
• In Ad-hoc mode, the Channel should match, although this is often not
required.
Problem 5 Video quality may suddenly deteriorate.
Solution 5 This can happen when an additional viewer connects to the Network
Camera, overloading the camera or the available bandwidth. The image
size and quality can be adjusted to cater for the required number of viewers
and the available bandwidth.
Problem 6 The motion detection feature doesn't send me any E-mail.
Solution 6 It may be that the SMTP (Simple Mail Transport Protocol) server used by
the camera to send the E-Mail will not accept mail. (This is to prevent span
being sent from the server.). Try using a different SMTP server, or contact
your ISP to see if SMTP access is being blocked.
Problem 7 Using the motion detection feature, I receive E-Mails which don't show
any moving objects.
Solution 7 The motion detection feature doesn't actually detect motion. It compares
frames to see if they are different. Major differences between frames are
assumed to be caused by moving objects.
But the motion detector can also be triggered by:
• Sudden changes in the level of available light
• Movement of the camera itself.
Try to avoid these situations. The motion detection feature works best in
locations where there is good steady illumination, and the camera is
mounted securely. This feature can NOT be used if the camera is outdoors.
Problem 8 The image is blurry.
Solution 8 Try cleaning the lens, or adjusting the Video Quality Control setting on the
Video Image screen. Video created by the lower settings will contain less
detail; this is the trade-off for using less bandwidth.

Public License applies to most of the Free Software Foundation's software and to any other
program whose authors commit to using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is
covered by the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to your
programs, too.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our General Public
Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom to distribute copies of free
software (and charge for this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get itif
you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new free programs; and that
you know you can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone to deny you these rights
or to ask you to surrender the rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for
you if you distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must
give the recipients all the rights that you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or
can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) offer you this license
which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the software.
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that everyone understands
that there is no warranty for this free software. If the software is modified by someone else and
passed on, we want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so that any
problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors' reputations.
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents. We wish to avoid the
danger that redistributors of a free program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect
making the program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must
be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow.
GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Terms And Conditions For Copying, Distribution And Modification
0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice placed by the
copyright holder saying it may be distributed under the terms of this General Public License.
The "Program", below, refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the
Program" means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say,
a work containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or
82
translated into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the
term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License;
they are outside its scope. The act of running the Program is not restricted, and the output from
the Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Program
(independent of having been made by running the Program). Whether that is true depends on
what the Program does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you receive it,
in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an
appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to
this License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a
copy of this License along with the Program.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option
offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus forming a
work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such modifications or work under the
terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the
files and the date of any change.
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or
is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all
third parties under the terms of this License.
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you must cause
it, when started running for such interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty
(or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: if the
Program itself is interactive but does not normally print such an announcement, your work
based on the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that
work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and
separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections
when you distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part
of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the
terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and
thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written
entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative
or collective works based on the Program.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program (or
with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not
bring the other work under the scope of this License.
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object
code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do
one of the following:
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must
be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for
software interchange; or,
83
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for a
charge no more than your cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of
Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute corresponding
source code. (This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
received the program in object code or executable form with such an offer, in accord with
Subsection b above.)
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to
it. For an executable work, complete source code means all the source code for all modules it
contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control
compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a special exception, the source
code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or
binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system
on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable.
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy from a
designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from the same place
counts as distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy
the source along with the object code.
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as expressly
provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute
the Program is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However,
parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their
licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing
else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Program or its derivative works. These
actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or
distributing the Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of
this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the
Program or works based on it.
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient
automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the
Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on
the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.You are not responsible for enforcing
compliance by third parties to this License.
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other
reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order,
agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you
from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously
your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence
you may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit
royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly
through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain
entirely from distribution of the Program.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance,
the balance of the section is intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in
other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right
claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting
the integrity of the free software distribution system, which is implemented by public license
84
practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software
distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to
the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other
system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the
rest of this License.
8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either by
patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the Program
under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those
countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In
such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the General
Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present
version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies a version
number of this License which applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of
following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by
the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of this
License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose distribution
conditions are different, write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is
copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we
sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of
preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing
and reuse of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO
WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT
WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT
NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY
AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM
PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN
WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY
MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE
LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL,
INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR
INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH
ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN
ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

Lesser GNU General Public License
GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Version 2.1, February 1999
Copyright (C) 1991, 1999 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
51 Franklin St, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but
changing it is not allowed.
[This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL. It also counts as the successor of the
GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence the version number 2.1.]
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and change it.
By contrast, the GNU General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share
and change free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.
This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some specially designated software
packages--typically libraries--of the Free Software Foundation and other authors who decide to
use it. You can use it too, but we suggest you first think carefully about whether this license or
the ordinary General Public License is the better strategy to use in any particular case, based on
the explanations below.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use, not price. Our General
Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom to distribute copies of
free software (and charge for this service if you wish); that you receive source code or can get
it if you want it; that you can change the software and use pieces of it in new free programs;
and that you are informed that you can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid distributors to deny you these
rights or to ask you to surrender these rights. These restrictions translate to certain
responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give
the recipients all the rights that we gave you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or
can get the source code. If you link other code with the library, you must provide complete
object files to the recipients, so that they can relink them with the library after making changes
to the library and recompiling it. And you must show them these terms so they know their
rights.
We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the library, and (2) we offer
you this license, which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.
To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that there is no warranty for the free
library. Also, if the library is modified by someone else and passed on, the recipients should
know that what they have is not the original version, so that the original author's reputation will
not be affected by problems that might be introduced by others.
87
Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of any free program. We wish
to make sure that a company cannot effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining
a restrictive license from a patent holder. Therefore, we insist that any patent license obtained
for a version of the library must be consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this
license.
Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the ordinary GNU General Public
License. This license, the GNU Lesser General Public License, applies to certain designated
libraries, and is quite different from the ordinary General Public License. We use this license
for certain libraries in order to permit linking those libraries into non-free programs.
When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using a shared library, the
combination of the two is legally speaking a combined work, a derivative of the original library.
The ordinary General Public License therefore permits such linking only if the entire
combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser General Public License permits more lax
criteria for linking other code with the library.
We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it does Less to protect the
user's freedom than the ordinary General Public License. It also provides other free software
developers Less of an advantage over competing non-free programs. These disadvantages are
the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for many libraries. However, the Lesser
license provides advantages in certain special circumstances.
For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to encourage the widest possible
use of a certain library, so that it becomes a de-facto standard. To achieve this, non-free
programs must be allowed to use the library. A more frequent case is that a free library does
the same job as widely used non-free libraries. In this case, there is little to gain by limiting the
free library to free software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License.
In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free programs enables a greater
number of people to use a large body of free software. For example, permission to use the
GNU C Library in non-free programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU
operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating system.
Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the users' freedom, it does
ensure that the user of a program that is linked with the Library has the freedom and the
wherewithal to run that program using a modified version of the Library.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow. Pay close
attention to the difference between a "work based on the library" and a "work that uses the
library". The former contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter must be
combined with the library in order to run.
GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND
MODIFICATION
0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other program which contains a
notice placed by the copyright holder or other authorized party saying it may be distributed
under the terms of this Lesser General Public License (also called "this License"). Each
licensee is addressed as "you".
A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data prepared so as to be
conveniently linked with application programs (which use some of those functions and data) to
form executables.
88
The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work which has been distributed
under these terms. A "work based on the Library" means either the Library or any derivative
work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a portion of it, either
verbatim or with modifications and/or translated straightforwardly into another language.
(Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term "modification".)
"Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it.
For a library, complete source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus
any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and
installation of the library.
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License;
they are outside its scope. The act of running a program using the Library is not restricted, and
output from such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for writing it). Whether that is true
depends on what the Library does and what the program that uses the Library does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's complete source code as you
receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each
copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that
refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and distribute a copy of this License
along with the Library.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option
offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion of it, thus forming a work
based on the Library, and copy and distribute such modifications or work under the terms of
Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
a) The modified work must itself be a software library.
b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the
files and the date of any change.
c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no charge to all third parties under
the terms of this License.
d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a table of data to be supplied by an
application program that uses the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility is
invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that, in the event an application does
not supply such function or table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of its
purpose remains meaningful.
(For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has a purpose that is entirely
well-defined independent of the application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any
application-supplied function or table used by this function must be optional: if the application
does not supply it, the square root function must still compute square roots.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that
work are not derived from the Library, and can be reasonably considered independent and
separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections
when you distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part
of a whole which is a work based on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the
terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and
thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written
entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative
or collective works based on the Library.
89
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library with the Library (or
with a work based on the Library) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not
bring the other work under the scope of this License.
3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public License instead of this
License to a given copy of the Library. To do this, you must alter all the notices that refer to
this License, so that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2, instead
of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the ordinary GNU General Public
License has appeared, then you can specify that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any
other change in these notices.
Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for that copy, so the ordinary GNU
General Public License applies to all subsequent copies and derivative works made from that
copy.
This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of the Library into a program that
is not a library.
4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or derivative of it, under Section 2) in
object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you
accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be
distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for
software interchange.
If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then
offering equivalent access to copy the source code from the same place satisfies the
requirement to distribute the source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy
the source along with the object code.
5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the Library, but is designed to work
with the Library by being compiled or linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library".
Such a work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and therefore falls outside the
scope of this License.
However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library creates an executable that is a
derivative of the Library (because it contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that
uses the library". The executable is therefore covered by this License.
Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables.
When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file that is part of the Library,
the object code for the work may be a derivative work of the Library even though the source
code is not. Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be linked without the
Library, or if the work is itself a library. The threshold for this to be true is not precisely
defined by law.
If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data structure layouts and accessors, and
small macros and small inline functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object
file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative work. (Executables
containing this object code plus portions of the Library will still fall under Section 6.)
Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may distribute the object code for the
work under the terms of Section 6. Any executables containing that work also fall under
Section 6, whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself.
90
6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or link a "work that uses the
Library" with the Library to produce a work containing portions of the Library, and distribute
that work under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit modification of the work
for the customer's own use and reverse engineering for debugging such modifications.
You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the Library is used in it and
that the Library and its use are covered by this License. You must supply a copy of this
License. If the work during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the
copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference directing the user to the
copy of this License. Also, you must do one of these things:
a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code for the
Library including whatever changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under
Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked with the Library, with the
complete machine-readable "work that uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so
that the user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified executable
containing the modified Library. (It is understood that the user who changes the contents of
definitions files in the Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application to use
the modified definitions.)
b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the Library. A suitable mechanism
is one that (1) uses at run time a copy of the library already present on the user's computer
system, rather than copying library functions into the executable, and (2) will operate properly
with a modified version of the library, if the user installs one, as long as the modified version is
interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with.
c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give the same user
the materials specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more than the cost of
performing this distribution.
d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, offer
equivalent access to copy the above specified materials from the same place.
e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these materials or that you have already
sent this user a copy.
For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the Library" must include any data
and utility programs needed for reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special
exception, the materials to be distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed
(in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of
the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies
the executable.
It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license restrictions of other proprietary
libraries that do not normally accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means
you cannot use both them and the Library together in an executable that you distribute.
7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the Library side-by-side in a single
library together with other library facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a
combined library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on the Library and
of the other library facilities is otherwise permitted, and provided that you do these two things:
a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work based on the Library,
uncombined with any other library facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the
Sections above.
b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact that part of it is a work based on
the Library, and explaining where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same
work.
91
8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library except as
expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense,
link with, or distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this
License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full
compliance.
9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing
else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Library or its derivative works. These
actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or
distributing the Library (or any work based on the Library), you indicate your acceptance of
this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the
Library or works based on it.
10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the Library), the recipient
automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or
modify the Library subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for
enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any
other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court
order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy
simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as
a consequence you may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent license would
not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by all those who receive copies directly or
indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
refrain entirely from distribution of the Library.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance,
the balance of the section is intended to apply, and the section as a whole is intended to apply
in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right
claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting
the integrity of the free software distribution system which is implemented by public license
practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software
distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to
the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other
system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the
rest of this License.
12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in certain countries either by
patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the Library under
this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries,
so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case,
this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the Lesser
General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the
present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library specifies a version
number of this License which applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of
following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by
the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a license version number, you
may choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
92
14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free programs whose distribution

Appendix B
Streaming Video/Audio
Solution
Overview
Streaming video is a sequence of "moving images" that are sent in compressed form over the
Internet and displayed by the viewer as they arrive. With streaming, a Web user does not have
to wait to download a large file before seeing the video or hearing the sound. Instead, the
media is sent in a continuous stream and is played as it arrives.
