To get video direct from a 4xxx series HD camera: For the HD cameras, use this URI (for
channel 1):
rtsp://<encoderIP>:554/StreamingSetting?version=1.0&sessionID=<sessionID>&acti
on=getRTSPStream&ChannelID=1&ChannelName=Channel1&EncoderPort=0
The <sessionID> will change. To get this value, log into the HD camera’s web
interface, and use the session ID from the URL.
It is possible to also use this alternative for disabled sessions on the camera:
rtsp://<encoderIP>:554/StreamingSetting?version=1.0&action=login&userName=<UserNa
me >&password= <Password>&getRTSPStream&ChannelID=2&ChannelName=Channel2
* NOTE: The “Disabled session” checkbox in the “Network”->”Basic” setup are of the
camera MUST be checked. If this is done, the camera CANNOT communicate w/ VSOM/VSMS.
