RTSP (HikVision) not work after upgrade

[sagitt]

Hi,
I'm using proxmox hypervisor and i can switch between old (1.34.X) and new (1.36.X) ZoneMinder version with snapshots.

With 1.34 all works fine, upgrading to lastest 1.36 my hikvision camera RTSP streaming not work.

What i can do? why with older works fine?
Thanks.

Do it with ffmpeg instead.

You were probably just lucky.
I use ffmpeg on all my 50+ Hikvisions

...and on 1.36.5 they are all working great.

but with ffmpeg recordered video have not ZM OSD with timestamp etc.
how i can fix this?

If you want the osd you have to use encode output as it needs to add that into the video. Or if you don’t want performance issues that causes use camera osd.
Remote method is just inbuilt RTSP code with ffmpeg decode Vs ffmpeg being RTSP done with ffmpeg. Remote is going to go away eventually as no point writing own RTSP implementation.

Understand, I turn on the time stamp on the camera and use my ZM server as the time server. This keeps the CPU low because I'm not encoding and I get a solid timestamp.
