Here's a small how-to instruction, you can start from any step.

 

IP address

 

To determine the IP address of your IP camera, connect to your router and watch for DHCP client list.

You should create an address reservation on router or config a static IP on your camera.

 

ONVIF parameters

 

Download an "Onvif Device Manager" sourceforge.net/projects/onvifdm/

Install it and run. It will show you the list of your cameras. Choose one.

Click "Live Video" in the middle. On the right you will see your camera video, below the video there is a string to connect your camera over RTSP.

For example: rtsp://192.168.40.4:554/live/main

If this string won't work, add some creditionals to URL:

rtsp://admin:mypass@192.168.40.4:554/live/main

 

View RTSP stream

 

You can use some video players to show this stream. I'm using VLC.

You can play URL in VLC: Open "Media" - "Open network stream" - "Network", put your URL here, "Play".

You can add URL to VLC shortcut:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" rtsp://admin:mypass@192.168.40.41/live/main

 

RTSP multi streaming

 

If you have some cameras, you can use different programs to show your streams. I'm using rtsp-camera-view(WinXP-10). It's Free, OpenSource, based on VLC 2.1.5. You can download it from github.com/grigory-lobkov/rtsp-camera-view/releases

 

 

Does it help for you?
