Thanks both, it’s improved with multi port (though, I had to set it up differently as I’m using the docker image, which uses NGINX) but now the streams randomly stop working in the montage view. zmNinja logs show a “killing all streams in montage to save memory” log around the same time. I did fiddle ...

I'm wanting to use Zoneminder as a live feed into my Hikvision cameras (no recordings, object detections etc needed). I've got Zoneminder itself set-up with three cameras via RTSP streams. When I view the camera feeds on the browser, everything works great, but using zmNinja causes the stream to be ...

And it's working.... In VLC, while I was viewing the rtsp stream, I opened the Media Information (cmd + i) > Codec Details and noted down the Video Resolution. It was a lot lower than what I had inputted (for some reason), so I changed it for Zoneminder. That still didn't work, so I looked at the ...

I wondered if it was the password having an exclamation mark, so I created a new user, tested it in VLC (it worked) and used that in Zoneminder but it's still not working....

Just going to note down the steps I went through to add it with an rtsp stream... * Name -> Front Door * Source Type -> Ffmpeg * Function -> Monitor * Source Path -> rtsp://<user>:<password>@<IP>/Streaming/Channels/202 (Note: the password does have an exclamation mark, which I had to URL encode to ...

Ah yeah, it also works without the port.

Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be working in Zoneminder

Nevermind - that one was just me being stupid (forgot I was on a VPN).

That works great now, thank you

Thanks

It doesn't seem to be working, at the moment, with the Hik format using VLC to test, but I'll keep playing and hopefully I'll figure it out!

Thanks for the reply!

Just to clarify, do you mean use the NVR IP and the /Streaming/Channels endpoint instead of the Camera IP? So, if the NVR is running on 192.168.40.101, I should be able to get RTSP working with 192.168.40.101/Streaming/Channels/301 ?

Hi all, I'm currently running Zoneminder version 1.36.31 (newly installed today), and I'm wondering if anybody has got it working with Hikvision cameras that are running through a Hikvision NVR. From researching it looks like the way to connect Hik cameras in Zoneminder is using rtsp, but the format ...
