I should have been more specific: The camera has it's own mini webserver
and you can see the stream with a webbrowser. The stream looks like
this:

--myboundary
Content-length: 8683
Content-type: image/jpeg
<jpeg binary data>
--myboundary
Content-length: 8715
Content-type: image/jpeg
...

I tried vlc -vvvv  http://<ip>/nphMotionJpeg\?Resolution\=320x240, but
vlc tries to interpret it as mpeg-ps. In the Changelog I've seen that mjpeg 
support is added somehow. Now I want to display it when it is not embedded
in some mpeg, but raw. Any way to do that?

Bye,
Torsten
