Is there anything like standard IP camera OS emulator? So to create a plugin\program for it and be able to come to Cameras creator\vendor with something like "Hey, I've developed some cool software for your camera! Look here! Please implement it into your cameras next version or please give me the job in your company!)"
So something like mobile os emulator... But for IP or at least usb Web Cameras.. So to create and test modules for it.
So Point is not in IP cameras HTTP\RTSP apis emulation but in emulation of how camera works internaly (like how frames are obtained, compressed, what controlls all that process etc)
I dont know if this is what you are looking for exactly. http://sourceforge.net/projects/axisemulator/

I have an App that needs to detect, if a USB Storage device is getting mounted. Can i simulate the mounting of an USB Storage Device while the Emulator is already running? This way i can debug the behavior of my app.
As i know, for registering the mounting and unmounting of the USB Storage Device i can use the StorageVolumeCallback(). What do i have to do to write a simple .txt File to that attached USB Storage Device?
Im having trubble to create a StorageManager inside my ViewModel because i do not have access to the Context.
Im thankful for any Tipp related to USB Storage Management at all.
Info:
API Version: 31
IDE: Android Studio
Language: Kotlin
Edit:
So i do not necessarily need to have a external usb drive mounted at startup. If its possible with adb it would be great if i could just forward a usb Pendrive to the running emulator when i need it. Something like adb connectUsbDevice -deviceid=****,vendorid=***
There isn't a .NET library I'm aware of which can do this. However, please refer to this post where the brilliant answer shows how to do this interfacing with the Win 32 API.
How do I disable a system device programmatically?
You'll need a combination of this, and a WMI query to find an attached PnP device of type storage. As a clue:
using (var searcher = new ManagementObjectSearcher(#"SELECT * FROM Win32_USBHub"))
{
collection = searcher.Get();
}
Change Win32_USBHub to the correct class if this isn't giving you what you're looking for.
EDIT: Be warned. If you're disabling storage devices, make sure they're not in use. That's what the "Safely remove USB" option is for in Windows.
Another option, if you don't need to emulate this in code, use a real USB storage device inserted in the system and use PowerShell to get, disable, and enable the device.
The Cmdlets you'll need are:
Get-PnpDevice
Disable-PnpDevice
Enable-PnpDevice
I'm trying to stream a microphone/audio to multiple clients.
the broadcaster is a screenless raspberry, so I can't open a Webbrowser and click on "share mircophone"
The clients will be using their smartphone to listen.
the latency must be super low.
I did not find any WebRTC Demo that worked. All of them are either p2p or the scalable Broadcasting from muaz khan is only working for the initiator; not clients.
I came across Janus (which I didn't really understand what exactly this is doing) but I don't get how to install this and how to configure it.
Is there any way to easily share the microphone's output via WebRTC? Something like Apache hosting a simple website where the microphone audio is hosted on?
Thanks for all the ideas on how to solve it!

No. There's nothing easy or simple about WebRTC.

This is the simplest option... running a browser. Are you sure you need to actually allow it to access the audio device?
In the past, I've used a flag on Chromium to get around this problem. I don't remember exactly what that flag was, but looking at the list, it might have been...
--use-fake-ui-for-media-stream
You might also be able to use --enable-kiosk-mode.
At a minimum, if you were to open the browser interactively and enable access, that page would get automatic access in the future.

WebRTC is peer-to-peer, but remember that the "server" can be one of those "peers".
Finally, you can look into using GStreamer, but don't expect anything quick and easy. https://github.com/centricular/gstwebrtc-demos
I have a product that can analyze video after inputting an rtsp url.
I would like to use a webcam to stream and feed my product the webcam rtsp.
How can I do that?
It will depend on the webcam you are using - most support RTSP but many do not publish the interface to access the stream as they are designed to be used with the webcam's own companion app.
There are some web resources which provide the RTSP urls for common web cams - you may find it hard to find a match as new versions of webcams roll out but it should give you a feel how to try accessing a vendors camera if you have a specific web cam you are testing against. Some examples (at the time of writing):
https://www.getscw.com/decoding/rtsp
https://soleratec.com/get-support/rtsp/
If you can't find the info for the camera you are using, and you have the companion app, you can also use a network sniffer tool like Wireshark (https://www.wireshark.org) and try to search the traffic for 'rtsp://' pattern.
If you just need to test your app and have access to a raspberry pi with a camera module you can also use this to generate an RTSP stream - there are several approaches for this but one I have found reliable is the v4l2rtspserver server:
https://github.com/mpromonet/v4l2rtspserver
There are specific instructions for setting it up on PI (https://github.com/mpromonet/v4l2rtspserver/wiki/Setup-on-Pi) and you can also verify it is working using VLC player on a laptop etc before testing in your specific application.
There are also a small number of test RTSP urls available on the web - the most reliable seem to be the one at this link provided by Wowza (again, link valid at time of writing):

Does anyone know if it is possible to access the iPad's camera connection kit? I would like to read the files off the connected mass storage device. Would this be possible or is this something that only Apple can do in their apps.
Thanks
I know this is an old question, but google brought me here so I thought I'd add this link for the next person to come along.
The good news is this. USB drives do mount properly and show up in the system as /dev/disk2s1. Yay. You can even add more drives via a hub. The iPad supports both FAT and HFS+ drives.
The bad news is this. As iPhone developer Dustin Howett discovered,
that mount point is sandboxed away from normal developer use. You
cannot read from or write to that disk using standard iPhone SDK
applications.
I have a U9 Telit modem which, at first, appears as a disk drive on USB bus. Then, the native software after autorun and install, sends a couple of IOCTLs to tell the device to reappear as other things. I can see them in procmon.
I want to better spy on these, to know exactly what they send and how, in order to do the same in proper way.
Try something like Systemtap. Attach a probe that dumps all ioctls and arguments from the kernel, grep through them.
You could use something like strace under linux. The windows equivalent is discussed here Systrace for Windows.
This might show you the ioctl commands sent.
Some companies offer the linux kernels of their devices as direct download from their official webpage. There you might find more information on how it works. For some devices, it's easy to build and deploy your own kernel. This helps as you can add custom debug output.
