Luxriot 1.1.18 will support Linksys WVC54G network camera. This camera is using MPEG4 codec by default. To view video from Linksys camera you have manually choose MJPEG mode using the following URL:

where 11.22.33.44 - your camera IP address

Please note that this will disable the live view in the camera itself and you will need to use the following to switch it back:
http://11.22.33.44/adm/file.cgi?h_videotype=mpeg4&todo=save

  1. LuxRiot 1.6.12 http://blog.luxriot.com/382 and later support this model implementing its native protocols, including MPEG-4. It is recommended to re-add the camera as “New MEdia Device” see screenshots here http://blog.luxriot.com/346 and you will be able to find this model in new updated model list, and you should be able to receive video into LuxRiot DVR.

  3. xAnubiSx, (a) make sure you add camera as described in comment above and (b) make sure you have the latest firmware on the camera. Also you can try to upgrade to the latest pre-release LuxRiot http://luxriot.com/downloads/LuxRiot/1.6.14/12018/LuxRiot-1.6.14.exe
