Recently I’ve bought cheap IP camera from AliExpress. I don’t want to write about camera’s quality (which is actually quite good for the price), you can read about it from hundreds of feedbacks on above link.
This camera has no documentation, and to access it, you have to use Internet Explorer and install ActiveX control. Yeah, I know.
If you’re alike me, you probably want RTSP link so you can connect it to ZoneMinder or some other video surveillance software system. If you wonder if RTSP link is displayed in camera’s software, it’s not.
I’ve searched and tried many, maany URLs from Internet, and this is working RTSP url for this camera:
rtsp://ip_address:554/user=admin&password=your_password&channel=1&stream=0.sdp
If you haven’t setup password for admin user (you really should), just leave password empty, like this:
rtsp://ip_address:554/user=admin&password=&channel=1&stream=0.sdp
This link will also work for other clones of this camera: Anten TEK, Dongjia etc.
Thank thanks thanks the only way to get the right IP adress. And the only way
to get the camera to work
No problem, I’m glad this post helped! 🙂
Hi, I have a camera from the same maker for a while using a url similar to the one you posted. But today I managed to use the ONVIF probe on zoneminder to detec the camera and it seems that the performance is better than it was before (with the old URL)
In case you want to try….
rtsp://zm:123456@:554/user=admin_password=VVpB5uw0_channel=1_stream=0.sdp?real_stream
Hope it works for you too
The ip of the camera should be after the “@” and before the “:554”
Thx bro.
Saved my day 😉
