after hours of searching for a solution i finally got it work. I'm not really happy how i've done it now, because its not on the direct way, but it works :)
my idea was to get the videostream from the ipcamera to a virtual video device, so that i can access it by ROS on the same way as you access an usb plugged camera.
it is possible with gstreamer to establish a pipe between the ipcameras videostream and a local video device.
the following command handles this for me
gst-launch souphttpsrc location=http://[user]:[password]@[camera_ip]/mjpg/video.mjpg ! jpegdec ! v4l2sink device=/dev/video0
and now i only need to follow the steps in the tutorial mentioned above to see the stream from my camera.
