SOLVED/WORKING xmeye camera not working - VLC and BlueIris OK

Post by Banderaz »

Hi,
Got this camera: http://www.ebay.com/itm/POE-720P-Mini-I ... Swux5YOpW5
I got it to work with VLC, streaming a RTSP stream with this URL: [url]rtsp://192.168.0.106/user=admin&password=mypassword&channel=1&stream=1.sdp[/url]
I also found it really quick in BlueIris, searching my local network, and it reported this: http://192.168.0.106:8899/onvif/device_service
In the log of BlueIris, it say this: RTSP URI: /user=admin_password=UnVGeZnB ... eal_stream

I tried all sorts of links, types etc in ZoneMinder, but no luck. ZM do not find it when I use Probe.
Running ZM v. 1.29.0 on my Unraid box, as a docker.
VLC reports 704/576 resolution, so used this in ZM.

Anyone got this type of camera to work? Shout out :) They are cheap, POE and appears to be with good picture quality.
Thank you

Hey there!

I've got an Xmeye camera as well and running into the same issue - did you manage to find a fix?

Cheers

Been a long time since I tried this, but just got back to try today.
Notice that ZM now is reported as 1.30.4 so that might be the thing that made this WORK!
:)
In the first picture, the "LINK HERE" is /user=admin&password=PASSWORD&channel=1&stream=1.sdp
