HTTP request

Is there anyway to send an http request (get/set) from BrightAuthor? I assume you cannot use a UDP command as HTTP uses TCP, but maybe I'm not understanding something correclty. If not, is the only way to send an http get/set from a HD1010 a custom script using the appropriate methods?

    Brightauthor doesn't currently send http or udp commands.

    But, you can send http commands from the brightsign directly using a script. Can you explain what you are trying to do?

    I realize this is a very old thread but I am looking for way to send http commands/requests from a brightsign player to an axis IP camera. I need to use the GPIO on my brightsign unit (XT1143) to send pan/tilt/zoom contols to our IP camera. 

    I am already able to use "http://10.0.0.191/axis-cgi/com/ptz.cgi?rpan=20" to pan the camera 20 units.

    Hello Lyndon, to follow up with this, do you have any examples of how to send http, as in the example from Kyle?

    Thanks

    I was able to make this work with very basic HTML5 page requests. 

    Thanks
