    I have an IP camera set up at home and want to embed the video into a WP page. Right now I have the link set up, but that opens another browser when clicked on. I’d like to have the video feed embedded into my current theme. Here’s a link to my site and camera. Just FYI, this camera is for family (mainly) to see my daughters playing in the living room, nothing weird.

    Funnily enough, I did this the other day, except I used a Panasonic pan/tilt IP camera. But anyway.

    Assuming it’s a fixed, you should be able to just insert:

    <form action="http://76.18.177.57:8080/TVJVIEW.htm" method="POST">
<APPLET name="cvcs" CODEBASE="http://76.18.177.57:8080/" CODE="xplug.class" WIDTH=640 HEIGHT=480>
<param name="RemotePort" value=8080>
<param name="Timeout" value=5000>
<param name="RotateAngle" value=0>
<param name="PreviewFrameRate" value=2>
<param name="DeviceSerialNo" value="">
</APPLET>
</form>

    …into the HTML editor, where you want the image to be displayed. Don’t use the Visual editor. Not even for a second. Don’t switch to it. Don’t touch it or update the post using anything other than the HTML editor. Otherwise it’ll strip the code out.

    If you’re on a static IP, that’s fine, but if you’re on a dynamic IP address, you might need to consider using Dynamic DNS instead.
