New Airlink Camera, not working - help

Post by Iesvs »

I'm working with the Airlink Smurf AM series (not to be confused with the A series).

I am able to get a video stream through VLC using this unusual looking RTSP path:
rtsp://192.168.0.156:554/user=admin&password=&channel=0&stream=0.sdp?

According to the Codec Information:
Codec: H264 - MPEG-4 AVC
Resolution: 1280x720
Decoded Format: Planar 4:2:0 YUV

In ZoneMinder I am unable to get video at all.
I have tried both Remote (tried HTTP and RTSP) and FFMPEG source types, but to no avail.
I thought if the path works for VLC, it also ought work for FFMPEG.

I am happy to provide any additional information about the cameras or my setup.

Also, the camera manufacturer provided me with an ONVIF package for the camera. A cursory look didn't turn up ONVIF options in ZM. If the camera will work with ZM over ONVIF, that may be an alternate solution for me.

Thank you in advance
