Visualization camera

[Jayce]

Hello,

I'm trying to make visualization page with camera, but I can't seem to find out what form of URL to use. Could you help me? I think it should be rtsp onvif.

Also, are there any other parameters?

mjpeg

mjpeg

What syntax of URL should I use?

I tried using http://IPADDRESS/videostream.asf?resolution=[WIDTH]*[HEIGHT]&user=[USERNAME]&pwd=[PASSWORD] which doesn't work.

It depend of the camera manufacture, there is no universal solution
First try to open video in browser.

[Jayce]

So it looks like I have found the right syntax for my camera, it is 
rtsp://username:password@IPADDRESS:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=0

Unfortunately I still can't make it work through visualization, only through VLC. Is there a way to make browser play RTSP stream inside of it, not through some 3rd party player like VXG or VLC player?

Clean browser can play only mjpeg, other formats need a plugin.

So is there a way to play the camera stream inside visualization of either chrome or safari browser?

To be honest you can only do it when camera support mjpeg.  Not every browser support or allow plugings to be installed. There are some options if your camera support other formats. There are devices which can convert video formats to the one you need.  We were playing with android app TinyCam https://tinycammonitor.com/ installed on a android TV was nicely converting  it to mjpeg video. The only issue was not the most stable hardware.
I saw recently some other option with cloud base conversion but had no time to try it out yet.  Something like this should also work https://www.ipcamlive.com/ free for few cameras.

what kind of camera model do you have?

[Jayce]

I have some kind of Dahua IP camera

[Daniel]

Try something like that. Also check if there is new firmware for your cam.

Okay I have found in my camera settings option to set encoding to mjpeg which I did. Then I tried the link which I think should have worked but still doesn't. If the encoding is mjpeg do I type in http url or rtsp one?

It must be mjpeg over http. Browsers do not understand rtsp without plugins.

Thank you very much, got it working.
