TCPVideoViewer and ServerCommandService over SSL

We are starting to work on getting raw data using the genericbyte data format. We are looking at the TCPVideoViewer sample as suggested and it requires using the servercommandservice to get info.

We are looking for a way to secure this using SSL, it appears it requires port 80 access right now. Is that required to communicate with the server to request the genericbyte data and to send ptz commands? if so, how do we secure it using SSL when it is on the public internet?

Please advise, thanks!

If you need to secure the connection, you should access the Mobile Server​ and use its protocol instead. Here you retrieve JPEGs, the GenericByteData is not used here.

The servercommandservice responds on 443 / SSL. is there any reason why we can’t use it over SSL?

We are working on modifying the sample app

The servercommandservice onn port 443 is for getting the configuration for basic users - no video is supplied from this service.
