Cam's properties

hi All,

total newbie here, I’ve been told to get info about all registered cams, like

• maxResolution

• mic-count

• speaker-count

• night vision

• mac-address-lan

• mac-address-wifi

• movement-sensor

are these info available anywhere?

VideoOS.Platform.Item retrieved via VideoOS.Platform.Configuration.Instance.GetItemsByKind(Kind.Camera) provides a set of Properties, but not the indicated ones…

TIA

Hi @Andrea Montanari​,

Have a look at the VideoOS.Platform.ConfigurationItems namespace and specifically the Camera class. The configuration api is where you’ll find these configuration properties with the option to read or modify them.

If your project requirements allow for it, you may be able to get access to this information faster using the MilestonePSTools powershell module which wraps MIP SDK and makes it a breeze to use from powershell.

If your project requires a compiled .NET assembly, you might still find value in using MilestonePSTools to explore the configuration interactivity from a shell where you can more easily inspect the configuration api hierarchy of your test VMS instance.
