ContaCam only supports the RTSP protocol, but with the aid of VLC it's possible to connect to any public live feed.

vlc.exe --repeat "liveurl" --sout "#transcode{vcodec=mjpg,scale=auto,width=1280,height=720,acodec=none}:standard{access=http{mime=multipart/x-mixed-replace;boundary=7b3cc56e5f51db803f790dad720ed50a},mux=mpjpeg,dst=:8080/videostream.cgi}"
