Can it be used on Linux systems? Mine is asking me to download a plug-in .exe. What is the URL string to simply get to the video feed?

It is a plugin for your browser so you can view the built in webpage / webserver in the device to configure it.

Yes, the plug-in will not work as it is designed for Mac or Windows. I have mine working via ZoneMinder on Linux Mint 17...

It's not a plug in play solution. Yes you will have to set it up. The good news is that it's been done before and documented online. Some simple linux commands, copying and pasting and you'll should be able to get it up and running. You may need to tweak some settings in order to get it running right. So it may be some what of a learning process. The link to the blog I use is below. http://jeremyblythe.blogspot.com/2012/06/motion-google-drive-uploader-and.html

I don't know. I think it works with any browser when it comes to watching the feed from any mobile or computer. I know the software that comes with it works with any OS because all it does is convert the files over to AVI files.

Media Center software exists for various operating systems, including Windows Mac and Linux based systems. I've written batch files for use on Windows and scripts that work on Linux. If anyone is interested, examples of the batch and script code is at http://forum.tvfool.com/showthread.php?t=820

I don't think there's a way to stream video from a computer; pretty sure I have heard that from several sources, including the manual. The player just doesn't have software to do that. It seems (for video playback) to require discs that are finalized in DVD, BD or 'avchd' video format; it won't even play videos off the USB drive, which I'm rather disappointed about.

It has an option to connect to an FTP server, or email. If it's going to be a lot of videos, i'd recommend setting up the ftp server.

Yes and No. If you want to use the build-in web interface, it requires a Firefox or other brower plugin. The plug-in provided by Grandstream is an .exe file which is a Windows binary and not Linux. I could not find a plug-in anywhere for Firefox on Linux. Yes, if you use a linux product to attach to it, like Zone Minder, which is difficult to setup and is a whole security camera system and not just a weblink to look at the live stream. There may be other products for linux but I have not researched it. Grandstream may have a linux plugin as well, but not where I could find.

You can view the video over your local area network (thru a computer on your LAN) but if you were hoping to plug a VGA or HDMI cable into the box, it will not display the video feed. Also, if you get this device, make sure to look on ubiquiti's website and learn how to update the software. It's easy, you just need to SSH into the box and run some commands.

I don't see why not. I didn't check what the codecs were but had no problems playing the video on an old Windows Vista desktop. The wrapper is listed as MP4 on dashcamtalk (but no mention of the video or audio codec). I can check if you need to know...just need to pull the card out tonight when I get home.

I am wondering the same thing. I will be using the most recent release of either CentOS or Ubuntu and I would hate to find out it doesn't work on Linux.

Sorry but unless WMP11 is somehow ported to Linux, there is no Clix support. It only works with WMP11 which means Windows only.

It appears to me as a hack of ubuntu lxde. The the bad side: the menus are not complete or correct, chromium performs poorly, if does not appear to play video, and it is a derivation rather than a release from ubuntu. On the good side: I was able to install and run scilab and spyder. My bitscope and it's software works ok with it. It ha a SATA port so I figure I will load ubuntu or fedora on it and use it as a data logger.

I plugged mine into a Linux Ubuntu Minimal install and it worked without issues. No software install required, no special drivers. It just works.

I can't say for sure if the software will work, but that won't matter, if you're planning on getting some kind of extra software you will be fine. You'll be able to get the video on to the computer no problem.

It is not recognized as a capture device in Open Broadcaster Software, so I am assuming is also isn't on other software as well. You need to use Window Capture to capture the DMCap window when trying to stream with this device.

Fine. I am using VLC media player on Linux Mint though. Maybe Win8 has higher demands. I haven't tried it.
