Camera configuration backup

Post by pankaj13 »

Hi,

Is there an option within Web GUI to save camera configuration?
I looked under "source" but did not see any option on any of the tabs which might help save camera configuration.

Thanks,

Not that I'm aware of.
You can save/restore the "Monitors" table in your database.

Use mysqldump from the terminal. Script it via cron.

fastest way to test streams:
ffmpeg -i rtsp://<user>:<pass>@<ipaddress>:554/path ./output.mp4 (if terminal only)
ffplay rtsp://<user>:<pass>@<ipaddress>:554/path (gui)
find paths on ispydb or in zm hcl
