DVR6116CW-H RTSP only shows a blue image

Post by carlosmaug »

Hi

I've got an DVR6116CW-H video recorder, it can send video using RTSP,

If I get video streaming using avplay I can see the camera flawlessly

avplay -f rtsp -rtsp_transport tcp -i "rtsp://user:*****@10.0.1.67:554/PSIA/streaming/channels/401"
The output is:

Input #0, rtsp, from 'rtsp://user:*******@10.0.1.67:554/PSIA/streaming/channels/401':
Metadata:

Duration: N/A, start: 0.010533, bitrate: N/A
Stream #0.0: Video: h264 (Baseline), yuv420p, 960x576, 20 fps, 45k tbr, 90k tbn, 40 tbc

0.00 A-V: -1.522 s:0.0 aq= 0KB vq= 545KB sq= 0B f=0/0 f=0/0


I'm using zm 1.29.0

The set up for the camera is

Name Camera1
Server None
Tipo Origen Ffmpeg
Función Monitor
Habilitado Yes
Linked Monitors
Analysis FPS 21
Maximos FPS (?) 21
Alarm Maximum FPS (?) 21
Reference Image Blend %ge 12%
AlmRefImageBlendPct 25%
Triggers

Source Path rtsp://user:*******@10.0.1.67:554/PSIA/streaming/channels/401
Remote Method RTP/RTSP
Options (?)
Target colorspace Color 24 bits
Captura Ancho (pixels) 960
Captura Alto (pixels) 576
Preserve Aspect Ratio
Orientación Normal
Deinterlacing Disabled

But I only can see a blue rectangle when I try to watch the image from the camera.

I've tried all combinations RTSP/Unicast RTSP/multicast, etc.. I have added ?tcp at the end... no joy

netstats shows that there is a TCP connection open
tcp 0 1 10.10.0.71:34924 10.0.1.67:554 SYN_SENT 6197/zmc

I have run out of ideas :-), any suggestion will be welcome

Yes, but I was unable to make it work. I got this error each few seconds

Can you just open the rstp port given in url or is there more ports needed? UDP or TCP? Thanks
