## Building the Application
|
|
|
|
1. Clone the repository:
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone https://github.com/yourusername/jsca.git
|
|
cd jsca
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Running the Application
|
|
|
|
Run the application using:
|
|
```bash
|
|

|
|
```
|

|
|
## Usage Instructions
|
|
|
|
1. **Adding Cameras**:
|
|
- Select an empty camera panel by clicking on it
|
|
- Go to Camera -> Add Local Camera to add a webcam
|
|
- Go to Camera -> Add Network Camera to add an IP camera
|
|
|
|
2. **Managing Cameras**:

|
|

|
|
|
|
## Network Camera URLs
|
|
|
|
For network cameras, you'll need the MJPEG stream URL. Common formats include:
|
|
|
|
- Generic IP Camera: `http://camera-ip:port/video`
|
|
- DroidCam: `http://phone-ip:4747/video`
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
1. **No webcams detected**:
|
|
- Check if your webcam is properly connected
|
|
- Ensure no other application is using the webcam
|
|
|
|
2. **Network camera not connecting**:
|
|
- Verify the camera URL is correct
|
|
- Check if the camera is accessible from your network
|
|
- Ensure proper credentials are provided if required
|
|
|
|
3. **Performance issues**:
|
|
- Try reducing the number of active cameras
|
|
- Check your network bandwidth for IP cameras
|
|
- Ensure your computer meets the minimum requirements
