NVR RTSP stream string
To determine the IP address of your IP NVR, 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 NVR.
Download an "Onvif Device Manager" https://sourceforge.net/projects/onvifdm/
Install it and run. It will show you the list of your Onvif sources. At the top of window, enter login username and password. Find and choose your NVR.
You will see a lot of "Video Source01: CH01" with different numbers and description. If there is no channels, explore your NVR configuration and enable RTSP protocol first.
Click "Live Video" on the desired channel. On the right you will see your channel video, below the video there is a string to connect your channel over RTSP.
For example: rtsp://192.168.0.101:554/ch01.264?ptype=tcp
If this string won't work later, try to add creditionals to URL:
rtsp://admin:mypass@192.168.0.101:554/ch01.264?ptype=tcp
You can use VLC to show this stream.
- 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@192.168.0.101/ch01.264?ptype=tcp
- You can also add command line parameter "--aspect-ratio 16:9"
Just add all the channels to rtsp-camera-view and manage it manually.
