FFmpeg RTSP Problem

Post by cherup »

Hi,

I am pretty new on ZoneMinder and try to figure out how it works with my cameras - and even after reading in the documentation I cannot see the problem right now.

First I am using FreenasPlugin Version of ZoneMinder which is currently 1.32.3
My goal is to get one camera working.

The camera is working in VLC using:
"rtsp://admin:password@192.168.0.17:554/onvif1"
In Zoneminder I added a camaera with FFMpeg and using as source path:
rtsp://admin:password@192.168.0.17:554/onvif1
In the ZM Log I can see the following error:

Unable to open input rtsp://admin:password@192.168.0.17:554/onvif1 due to: Invalid argument

When using FFMpeg from the console with the command:
ffmpeg -i rtsp://admin:password@192.168.0.17:554/onvif1
everything looks good.

So maybe the parameter "-i" is missing somwhere in the ZM config ?
I guess something is wrong in my config, so maybe you will have a tip for me ?
