Get a camera not mounted

Post by BigChris »

I have successfully integrated four different cameras so far. With my current one, a Hikam S6, I just can't do it.
In VLC I can watch the stream at this address: rtsp://10.10.12.41:554/onvif1

In Zoneminder I tried the following settings:

Source Type: Libvlc
Function: Monitor
Source: rtsp://10.10.12.41:554/onvif1

Method: Tcp, UDP, HTTP Tunnel

Unfortunately, it's not working. What can I do?

Try

Source Type: Ffmpeg
Method: TCP

If that does not work, check the camera manufacturer's website or search the web for something other than onvif1 for that model.

Check the resolution VLC reports. Some cameras use a resolution that is different than advertised. Also, a high res can can run your server out of space in /dev/shm

Hello, i have the same issue.... is there a solution?

on onvif device manager it works
on vlc mediaplayer it works


But with zoneminder not... why it works everywhere without config but not with zoneminder?

Log:
Unable to open input rtsp://10.0.1.51:554/onvif1 due to: Invalid data found when processing input


Thanks in Advance!
