Amcrest IP2M

Running v1.24.2. I've tried all the suggested configs on the hardware page. Best I can get is a black screen. I was, however, able to get a browser to work with:
http://192.168.0.197/cgi-bin/mjpg/video ... &subtype=1
In ZM: Remote, HTTP, Simple, Name: 192.168.0.197, Port:80, Path: /cgi-bin/mjpg/video.cgi?channel=0&subtype=1, 1930x1080 and that gives me a black image. Suggestions please.

you could try running nmap on that address to see if there's rtsp support.
Then there's a few things you can try for the stream.
Check the iSpy database - they may have it figured out, or least give you some ideas.
OH, wait...and since you got http working, try leaving out the port 80, if you haven't. Sorry, I don't remember what 1.24 looks like.
You could post a screenshot and maybe we can figure out what goes where.

Well the slog'n has gotten me a bit farther. iSpy gave me a line:
rtsp://admin:admin@192.168.0.197/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=00&authbasic=YWRtaW46YWRtaW4=
and vlc [line above] displays just fine. However when I try to insert into ZM - nada
nmap gave me these: 80 554 1935 8086

I've tried Remote & Ffmpeg
Prot: http & rtsp
Method: every one
Port: blank, 80, 554
source path: admin:R0cky222@192.168.0.197/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=00&authbasic=YWRtaW46UjBja3kyMjI=
Different combinations give me a image: blank(white), or black with "Can't connect" or "Can't stream".
On one of my boxes:
Code: Select all
cat amcam.html
<html>
<body>
<img src="http://admin:R0cky222@192.168.0.197/cgi-bin/mjpg/video.cgi?channel=0&subtype=1" width=1080>
and that pops right up. And
vlc "rtsp://192.168.0.197:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=00&authbasic=YWRtaW46YWRtaW4="
works. <sigh> Oh, and iSpy works.
Is it possible I'm missing a lib? or a package?

I found this page:
viewtopic.php?t=30024
I cleared everything out and added a Amcrest Preset. Problem: nothing happened - no camera.
So -

Jeeze.
What you got on the source page?
Just noticed this -
viewtopic.php?f=10&t=30024
might be instructive. Ffmpeg is the right choice.

"Just noticed this" - found that a few days ago. I've asked for his config on his camera.

Oops.
Maybe leave the authbasic part off?
But I suppose you already tried that…

You have a "General" and "Source" page on your 1.24, right?
Would you send screenshots of those to remind me what they look like and maybe remind me of some dumb thing we're forgetting?
Also, does that have the log viewer page?
While it seems unlikely, maybe 1.24 just can't do this camera

Well! That's weird.
I've not heard where that that was a *requirement*, just a speed-up -
but as long as it works...
