1. What is Axis CGI mjpg?
Axis is a leading manufacturer of network cameras. CGI (Common Gateway Interface) is a set of HTTP-based commands to control or retrieve data from Axis devices. The mjpg CGI script is specifically designed to return a continuous Motion JPEG stream (a sequence of JPEG images over HTTP). Unlocking the Stream: A Guide to the Axis mjpg/video

MJPEG (Motion JPEG): This is a video format where each video frame is a separately compressed JPEG image. Unlike H.264 or H.265, it does not use inter-frame compression. This makes it resource-heavy on bandwidth but incredibly easy to decode in web browsers and low-power applications without complex decoders.
