Video stream
A live MJPEG camera or 3D-printer stream, on the desktop.
What it does
Shows a live MJPEG-over-HTTP video stream: the format served by ustreamer, camera-streamer, mjpg-streamer, most IP cameras, and the printer interfaces Mainsail, Fluidd and OctoPrint.
Once connected the picture fills the frame with no controls and no chrome: the widget is the picture. Until the first frame decodes, a “Connecting…” overlay covers it, and the image itself stays hidden so the browser’s broken-image glyph never flashes through.
Three fit modes: contain letterboxes, cover crops, stretch distorts to fill both axes.
You can rotate the picture, pause the stream, and set a reconnect interval.
The header title falls back to the stream’s host:port when you haven’t set a label, which is how a camera on your LAN is actually recognised.
Where the data comes from
Directly from the URL you configure. The connection is between your machine and that endpoint; nothing passes through Themia’s servers.
Limits
- MJPEG over HTTP only. RTSP, HLS, WebRTC and ONVIF streams are not supported.
- No audio, no recording, no PTZ controls, no motion detection.
- Streams needing authentication work only if the credentials can be carried in the URL.
