I am working on a task in which I have to access live stream of an IP Camera (Edimax IC-3110P) using OpenCV 3. My Host system is Windows 10 and I have used Virtualbox to run Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial) 64-bit. I am using C++ and Code::Blocks(IDE).

Finally I was able to access the livestream through Microsoft Visual Studio(in Windows 10) with the following program.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <opencv2/opencv.hpp>
#include <iostream>

int main(int, char**) 
cv::VideoCapture vcap;
cv::Mat image;

// This works on a D-Link CDS-932L

const std::string videoStreamAddress = 
"http://admin:1234@192.168.2.3/mjpg/video.mjpg";
//open the video stream and make sure it's opened

if(!vcap.open(videoStreamAddress)) 
 std::cout << "Error opening video stream or file" << std::endl;
 return -1;


 for(;;) 
 if(!vcap.read(image)) 
 std::cout << "No frame" << std::endl;
 cv::waitKey();

cv::imshow("Output Window", image);

if(cv::waitKey(1) >= 0) break;

However, in Ubuntu with the same program in Code::Blocks it shows "Error loading stream video or file."

This camera doesn't support Linux OS but I can access the livestream through a browser's address bar(in Ubuntu) but not through my program.
