Motion JPEG Player

Motion JPEG Player is a small-sized application that supports IP cameras which play JPEG still images, allowing you to save the pictures to the hard drive. It comes packed with just a few options that can be seamlessly figured out, even by users with no previous experience in computer software.

This is a Java-based program which does need installation. You can drop the program files in a custom directory on the disk and just click the executable to run.

It is also possible to save Motion JPEG Player to a USB flash disk or similar storage unit, in order to directly run it on any computer, as long as it has Java installed.

What's important to take into account is that the Windows registry does not get updated with new entries, and no additional files are created on the HDD without the user's approval.

The interface is based on a regular window with a simple and intuitive structure, where all you have to do is write the URL of an IP camera and hit the Enter key to view the picture.

Motion JPEG Player provides users with a long list of addresses in this matter, which can also be found in the INI file. By opening the context menu you can save the image to a BMP or JPG file by specifying the output directory and file name. There are no other notable options available here.

The application is low-demanding when it comes to CPU and RAM, so it does not affect the overall performance of the computer. It is very responsive to commands and works well, without causing the operating system to hang, crash or pop up error dialogs. We have not come across any issues in our tests.
