How can CacheCam grab from a webcam that needs a username and password?

0

This is not common, but some webcam owners use webcams that are set up to use a username and password. These credentials are often given on the webcam website, but you must enter them to get the image. The HTTP protocol does provide a lesser-known method of entering these credentials right in the URL. For example: http://username:password@website.com/image.jpg automatically enters username and password for you when you enter the URL. When you face a webcam with a credentials requirement, simply include the username and password in the URL in your request, or in the waypoint preset’s URL.
