I am working on controlling my TP-Link SC4171G PTZ controls in android. The urls for controlling ptz is : http://admin:admin@IP/cgi-bin/operator/ptzset?move=X where X could be up, down, left, right, upright,upleft, downright, downleft. here admin:admin reflects useame:password.
When i put the following url in browser address bar it works perfectly but when im doing it with HttpClient get request it just wont work.
My code is:
public void CameraControlManager(final String Direction)
{
Thread thread = new Thread(new Ruable(){
@Override
public void run() {
//code to do the HTTP request
try {
GET("http://admin:admin@192.168.0.120/cgi-bin/operator/ptzset?move="+Direction);
}catch (Exception e)
{
Toast.makeText(DoorControl.this,e.getMessage().toString(),Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
});
thread.start();
//"http://admin:admin@192.168.0.120/cgi-bin/operator/ptzset?move=up"
}
public static void GET(String url){
InputStream inputStream = null;
String result = "";
try {
final HttpParams httpParams = new BasicHttpParams();
HttpCoectionParams.setCoectionTimeout(httpParams, 30000);
HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient(httpParams);
HttpResponse httpResponse = httpclient.execute(new HttpGet(url));
inputStream = httpResponse.getEntity().getContent();
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.d("InputStream", e.getLocalizedMessage());
}
}
