Configuring an RTSP Server

C-Werk supports RTSP streaming from cameras (see Get camera live stream and Get archive stream).

To configure an RTSP-Server:

1. Select a Server object.

2. In the RTSP port field, specify the port number that will be used for RTSP data transfer (1).
   

3. In the RTSP/HTTP port field, specify the port number for transfer of RTSP data via HTTP tunnel (2).

4. Click the Apply button.

Configuration of the RTSP Server is now complete.

To receive videos from an RTSP Server, use the following link format:

• Live: rtsp://login:password@IP-Address:554/hosts/HOSTNAME/DeviceIpint.N/SourceEndpoint.video:0:0 − high quality stream;
           rtsp://login:password@IP-Address:554/hosts/HOSTNAME/DeviceIpint.N/SourceEndpoint.video:0:1 − low quality stream.
• Archive rtsp://login:password@IP-Address:554/archive/hosts/HOSTNAME/DeviceIpint.N/SourceEndpoint.video:0:0/20160907T050548.723000?speed=1.

where:

• login:password − user login and password in the C-Werk VMS.
  

  Attention!

  For correct operation of the RTSP Server, a user name has to match the following rules:

  • start with a letter;
  • contain only Latin, numerical and following extra characters: "/", "-", "_", ".", ":", "+".

   

• hosts − permanent section of a link.
• HOSTNAME − server name.
• N − camera ID in the C-Werk VMS.
• SourceEndpoint.video:0:0 − permanent section of a link.
  
• speed − a parameter required for receiving video streams from an Archive.
