ROS web video server

I am trying to run web_video_server (https://github.com/RobotWebTools/web_video_server) for ROS. catkin build was succesful, but I don't know how I can run this... If I check the URL which is shown in the documentation, nothing happens. I got an IP-Camera, and i can see the stream in rviz. So that works.

Because I am pretty new to ROS I would appreciate a realy "basic" answer or instruction how to do that. I can not find any tutorial or explanation to this problem.

Thanks!

Sorry for the late answer, but it may be useful for other guys.

You do not need to use any git. Just do (replace kinetic by your ros distro) : sudo apt-get install ros-kinetic-web-video-server Then to launch it rosrun web_video_server web_video_server

To publish image you can use roslaunch openni2_launch openni2.launch, to publish XtionProLive data for example, or rosrun cv_camera cv_camera_node if you have a classic monocular camera.

then go to 0.0.0.0:8080 in your favorite browser and you should be able to display your images
