One of the network addresses (62).

Moreover, after the client program (11) obtains the control of the network camera (20), the client program (11) can request the operating system to automatically start or the user can activate the operation interface (14), and then the user can The network camera (20) is set through the operation interface (14), for example, but not limited to the resolution or screen update rate of the set image and/or sound data (40), or the network camera (20) is activated. Set items such as time or period.

Then, the network camera (20) performs the operation of capturing the image and/or sound data according to the set value or the preset value of the user.

Since the identification code (12) corresponds to a network address (62), the user can use any browser (71) connected to the network computer device (70) in the browser (71). The network address (62) is input, and the browser (71) is connected to the client program (11) of the computer device (30) through the communication module (601) of the remote server (60), so that the browser can be (71) Passing a packet with the client program (11) allows the user to instantly monitor the image and/or sound data (40).

Specifically, the browser (71) includes a video module (711) for transmitting The communication module (601) of the remote server (60) is connected to the client program (11) of the computer device (30), and the browser (71) and the client program (11) are enabled. Pass the packet between.

For example, the present embodiment is not limited thereto, and the video module (711) can be used to execute the RTMFP (Real-Time Media Flow Protocol) communication protocol developed by the Adobe company, since the RTMFP is established in the UDP (User Datagram Protocol). Protocol, so video and/or audio data (40) can be transferred directly between the computer device (30) and the computer device (70) in Flash Player mode.

Since the image and/or sound data (40) is directly transmitted between the computer device (30) and the computer device (70), the communication module (601) of the remote server (60) only needs to be used as a computer device. (30) and the bridging function between the computer devices (70).

Preferably, the browser can support html 5, Adobe Flash or Streaming media technology.

Preferably, the image and/or sound data (40) are stored in a storage space (32) of the computer device (30).

Preferably, the user can perform playback, deletion or downloading of the video and/or audio data (40) in the webpage corresponding to the network address (62). In addition, the user can also set the username and password for logging in to the network address (62) through the client program (11).

According to the technical means described in the main embodiments of the present invention, the present invention provides an instant sharing system with remote video, which is provided with an operating system and at least Operating in a computer device architecture of a network camera, comprising a USB digital disk and a remote server: the USB digital disk comprises a client program and an identification code; wherein the identification code corresponds to a network The remote server includes a communication module for bridging purposes; therefore, the user can input the network address in the browser through any browser connected to the network device of the network, and the browser passes through the browser. The communication module of the remote server is connected to the client program of the computer device, so that the packet can be transmitted between the browser and the client program, so that the user can monitor the image and/or sound data in real time. . Therefore, the user can actually reduce the cost of setting up the monitoring system, and can monitor the image and/or sound data through the browser at any time, and allows the user to easily manage the monitoring system.
