AXIS Media Control SDK
Use this SDK for applications that stream live video and audio from Axis video products, door stations, audio products and from the radar detector.
AXIS Media Control is a GUI component and is very easy to use. Using the example code you can develop a media streaming application in a very short time.
The SDK contains an ActiveX component optimized for efficient video rendering directly in ActiveX containers such as Microsoft® Visual Studio® Projects. In addition to the component, the SDK includes documentation with API specifications and Microsoft® Visual Studio® sample projects in C# and C++.
AXIS Media Control is intended for live video and audio. For recording solutions, the preferred choice is the AXIS Media Parser SDK.
NOTE: The AXIS Media Control SDK also includes decoder components, which are provided for development purposes only. It is your responsibility to obtain any required third-party licenses. Axis does not grant to you, under the SDK license agreement, any necessary patent rights with respect to audio and/or video encoders or decoders. More information is available in the license file for the SDK. Please read it carefully.
NOTE: It is recommended to always install the 32-bit version of the SDK on development computers, even if only targeting the 64-bit version, as Visual Studio requires the x86 components to retrieve the type library definitions.
The 32-bit decoder included in the camera is not compatible with the 64-bit SDK.
