Re: [Motion-user] Network Camera compatiability with Motion

[bob <bob...@gm...>]

I don't understand what the problem is. I'm thinking that all network 
cameras should work. The camera itself is irrelevant. You are just 
grabbing images from a network source. Unless the image is in some 
proprietary format, but even that can be worked around. What exactly is 
the problem?
