How to create Multiple MIP Drivers?

Hi,

We are got reply for our previous post 100 is limit of Metadata ports for one MIP driver.

We have to map more than 200 cameras with meta data(Note: One Metadata port for each camera).

One MIP Driver only have 100 ports. How can we create more ports for map with each camera.

Thanks,

4W Team.

Hi Bo Andersen,

Thanks for your response. But we are not getting clear idea about creating Multiple MIP drivers. As per the link we can’t create more than one MIP driver for one IP and port. But we have to create one port to one camera mapping for 200 cameras. we are using Management server IP and 52123 port to create one MIP driver with 100 ports. What other IP/Port we can use for another MIP Driver? And Do we need to create separate executable for each MIP driver? Please Provide more details about this.

Thanks,

4W Team.

Please have a look at the Multi Channel Metadata Provider sample. this sample provides three channels, you can expand this up to 100 channels.

If you need 200 channels you must use two devices with 100 channels each or in similar way distribute the channels over multiple devices.

Thanks Andersen. Also we need one more clarification. We have assigned 20 metadata ports to 20 different camera for overlaying text in to it. It is working fine as we expected. If suppose some of the cameras were deleted and added back after some time, added camera’s metadata will assign automatically ?

Thanks,

When a camera is deleted so is the association between camera and metadata. I cannot see how it would reappear when you add a camera later. However if you have developed functionality that for a camera automatically assigns related metadata then I guess that would work every time.

I might have misunderstood so let me just state; when you delete a camera you will also delete the data that defines the related metadata bond.
