Hi,

We’re currently using the toolkit libs of the MIP SDK to get the video feed from Milestone and run our application on Windows. However, we’re planning to move to Linux environment and I wanted to know the different ways in which the linux application can get video feed from Milestone. Please share your valuable inputs.

We unfortunately don’t have any samples for the Linux platform. In general you will have to use a protocol approach, so please refer to the protocol documentation: https://doc.developer.milestonesys.com/html/index.html?base=content_3.html&tree=tree_3.html

Also, if you have a look at the TCP Video Viewer sample, it shows how to do a protocol integration for getting video. It is written in C# so cannot be directly used for Linux, but should for most parts be fairly straight forward to rewrite in another language:
