Hi,
Do you have a contact at Vivotek that we could talk with? We would also need to know what specific products of theirs you (intend to) use. Essentially we need to know what the makeup of the camera and/or encoder is, and perhaps you know the answer to these questions:
1) Is the camera running some sort of linux operating system?
2) What CPU is it using? (ARM, MIPS, etc)
3) Does it have/support a particular GCC tool-chain, and if so, which one(s)?
Thanks,
Bryan
