Anran VGB101-IP with ZoneMinder

Post by tduncklee »

I'm new here so I may have made a mistake earlier. I thought I posted this question but cannot find it so attempting again.

I am trying to set up a 2MP outdoor camera. I have it working with VLC with:
rtsp://192.168.0.71/user=admin&password=admin_channel=1_stream=0.sdp

However, when setting it up as an rtsp monitor in ZM, I get a black screen with various error messages in the log depending on what setting I have selected in the Source tab.

I did get it to work, though extremely poorly, by setting Source Type to ffmpg and setting the source type to the url I have above. However, it only updates the screen every 11 seconds even though it says it's displaying around 5 fps.

Can anyone give me any hints on what to try next?

Thanks!
TD

UPDATE: For other new users experiencing this. My problem is that I didn't have a problem. Somehow I missed that Chrome does not play well with ZM. I switched to Firefox and it's working perfectly.
