"Allow content within iframes of other websites"

I don't see this feature in Advanced Web Options explained in the manual, and I was wondering if someone can explain how to use iframe to include ones viewcam.me stream -- without the controls, just the livestream.

Also, may I assume that the same logins would be required, and the iframe would just be to brand the stream?

Cheers!

    If you just want a simple view of the live stream, here's a good option:

    • Follow our instructions via Create a Screen Saver With Your SecuritySpy Cameras - this gives you a URL that contains just the live images from the cameras you specify.
    • The username/password that you encode into the URL must belong to a user account that is allowed to access the live streams. This will be visible in the URL, so it's very important here to use a special web user account that has minimal permissions - just to the live video, and just to the allowed cameras.
    • In your own HTML page on a different site, use an iframe with the generated URL as its src, like this:
    <iframe src="https://example.viewcam.me:8001/multiplex?cameras=0,2,3,7&cropMode=2&auth=dXNlcjpwYXNz" height="640" width="480"></iframe>

    Thanks, but I got lost at Step 3 bulletpoint 2 - create auth parameter.
