I feel I'm getting real close to getting this to work for my rebranded HIKvision cameras (Alibi).

I can use the following URL via google chrome to stream the mjpeg substream:
http://user:password@ip/Streaming/channels/102/httppreview
 
So I tried setting up the stream url with no luck as:
{0}:{1}@ip/Streaming/channels/102/httppreview

I hoped IP camera viewer would just supply the http:// and then my stream url.  no dice.

Is there any way to supply a complete custom url or at least get it to format it as I did for chrome?

Thanks,
Ron

Fill the ip, login and password when you create a camera in the application and select "hikvision" in camera brands. That should do it

I'm hoping someone can help me set this up for a USB camera I have in my garage. Blue Iris is installed on the garage PC, and the USB camera signal is sent over WiFi into my house. There another PC is set up running BI too, and I can see the garage cam fine (the cam model on the house PC is Raw H.264, the path is /h264/cam1). I've tried just about every configuration I can think of in IP Camera Viewer Basic, but nothing has worked. Does anyone have any suggestions?

The application only works with mjpeg steams or jpeg snapshots. To view h264 steam you need extra hardware (see the help).

Thanks. When I view the garage stream in Chrome, it shows it's a jpegpull.html stream. Is that the same as jpeg snapshots? I tried adding that string but still couldn't view the camera.

You'll have to get the link directly to the image, not the page that the image is shown on. You can right click on the image in Chrome and select "Copy image address". If the address is, for example:
http://192.168.1.80/mjpg/video.mjpg?cam ... stamp=1234
In the IP Camera Viewer on your roku in the IP address you add 192.168.1.80, and in the stream url you add: /mjpg/video.mjpg?camera=1&streamprofile=test&timestamp=1234
Of course, don't forget to fill in the login and password for the camera and also the port.

Thanks for the reply. I tried that yesterday too, but since Chrome shows "/image/Cam1?time=3810" (image instead of mjpg) I assume that it's not going to work?

UPDATE: I found some tricks posted on an IP cam site that seem to work, as I can now see my BI feed in this channel. Thanks for the quick responses...

The uri doesn't have to have mjpeg in it. Try this:
fill in the IP, fill in the port (80 by default), fill in your login and password and then, in the stream url use: /image/Cam1? 
See if that works.

Thanks again for the prompt replies. What ended up working for me was /mjpg/index?

Considering purchasing good work:
would you consider having option in the setup for a full screen display of one selected feed upon activation of the app this way we do not have to select to see a full screen upon loading .....If so you have my $.....thanks happy holiday

RE:Pro version

Hi, great program. I have this working well on my local network with a Blue Iris install. I just went through all the forum posts and could not find any information on this question.
I have cameras at remote locations connected to separate Blue Iris installs. I tried inputting new camera data into your program using the remote IP address of the remote Blue Iris install (73.165.xxx.xx). This works with other Android IP camera viewing apps I have. The Blue Iris remote programs are port forwarded in the respective routers.

Is remote camera adding from Blue Iris supported on Roku IP Cam Viewer or only local networks, or am I just missing something?
I have not tried inputting from remote cameras directly as I don"t have any of them port forwarded for security reasons.

Thanks John
