RVM1 server

When using the RVM1 in a remote way; you have to have a server running in the mchine where the robot is connected. For this, just run the comand: robot_srv followed by the number of the server port.

Using a Camera

Connect your favourite camera to your machine and register it with the jmfregistry utility from JMF. You should see your camera registering itself to JAVA. Once this is done, you can choose your camera device from a list of devices when click in the option 'Capture from localhost' from the Camera pane.

Or, you can launch a RTP Server from the machine that has the camera connected:

> camera_srv

Choose your device and click when you want to begin the transmission and stop when you want to finish it.

Launch JRobot and choose Capture from RTP Server from the Camera pane.
