Install the IP camera software on your computer and connect it to your Windows system.
Your camera is reachable via the IP address 192.168.2.236 on port 80, which means it’s accessible through your browser. To make Windows recognize it as a camera, you’ll need to configure it in the appropriate settings or use specific tools like Device Manager or Windows Camera app. Check the camera’s properties in Device Manager, enable it under the Camera settings, or install the Windows Camera app to allow apps to detect and use it.
Determine whether the camera uses UDP or HTTP streaming. Enter the IP address into your viewing app with the appropriate port and stream type configurations.
If the app doesn<|pad|>, you won’t have a way to enter an IP address, so Windows can’t recognize it as a camera.
In case anyone else runs up against this problem, I've found a workaround: Using OBS, install the 'virtual camera' plugin. Then, open an OBS instance and point a 'browser source' at the IP in question. Then launch the 'virtual camera' plugin and Windows can use it as a camera device. Not exactly an elegant solution, but it works.
