Screen2ipcam is a proprietary Windows software application developed by MagicWeb. It enables a Windows desktop to be exposed as an ONVIF Profile S and RTSP (H.264/MPEG-4 AVC) IP camera, allowing the computer's display to be discovered and viewed by compatible network video recorders (NVRs) and video management systems (VMS) as if it were a conventional IP surveillance camera.

The software is intended for environments where computer screens need to be monitored or recorded using existing video surveillance infrastructure without requiring external HDMI encoders or video capture hardware.

History

Screen2ipcam was developed by MagicWeb to simplify the integration of Windows desktops into standard IP surveillance systems. The software was designed to use open surveillance protocols, allowing compatibility with a wide range of ONVIF-compatible devices and software.

The application is distributed through the Microsoft Store and is also available through several software distribution platforms.

Features

Screen2ipcam provides the following functionality:

  • ONVIF Profile S support
  • RTSP H.264 video streaming
  • Main stream and sub stream support
  • Automatic ONVIF device discovery (WS-Discovery)
  • JPEG snapshot support
  • Built-in web viewer
  • Password-protected access
  • Native C++ implementation
  • Low CPU and memory usage
  • Compatibility with Windows 7 SP1 through Windows 11 (32-bit and 64-bit)

Unlike HDMI encoders, Screen2ipcam operates entirely in software by capturing the Windows desktop and publishing it as a standard IP camera on the local network.

Compatibility

Screen2ipcam is compatible with video management systems and network video recorders supporting ONVIF Profile S and RTSP. Examples include:

Typical applications

Common use cases include:

  • Point-of-sale (POS) workstation monitoring
