Mark, I feel like a complete *** . It seems that in the field properties there were two lines of the IP Address. Hence the error. And now your code works! To that I send you a digital beer of your choice, and raise my glass to you! If I can bug you for one more thing... :) Is there a way to lock my ...

It reports back "invalid host Address"
but if i swap the [[IpAddress]] in the merge line with the actual address it works.

Below is the original working version, below that is the variation you suggested: on mouseUp put field "ipaddy" into IpAddress put "xmlMessage=" & urlEncode("<?xmlversion=" & quote &"1.0" & quote & "?><DeviceRequest><Action>SETFOCUSMODE</Action>" & \ "<Authenticate><Username>admin</Username><Passwor...

Hello Group, I am trying to send fixed XML/CGI to a webcam but am having no luck. I have researched the web for two days but no go. Maybe some of you could be kind enough to point me in the right direction. This is my HTML version which works fine: <form action="http://10.0.27.232/cgi-bin/devconfig....

I agree, being a camera manufacture these limitaions are starting to make me think about using another solution.
Its unfortunate as I really like livecode.

Klaus,
Thanks for the info

Hi folks,
I currently have a stack using ffplay (part of ffmpeg) to start a video stream.
Using launch to start the ffplay.exe.
This opens the video in a seperate window.

I would like this window to appear in the stack as a video object would..

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Sturgis that worked!
Thanks so much for your help.
