[solved] Hikvision DS-KB8112-IM connection to ZM?

Hi,
First post here, hopefully right subforum.
I've been using ZM for a while now and I'm gradually expanding my cam network.
Recently purchased and installed my two Hikvision doorbells (DS-KB8112-IM) with the Indoor station (DS-KH8301-WT) and they are working well.
Now I'm trying to add my doorbells to my ZM installation, this seems a bit difficult as (at first glance) there is no RTSP available on the doorbells, I only have the ports 80, 443 and 8000 available.
Searched the forum and wiki, and only found the how to for the DS-KB6003-WIP.
https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Hikvision_V ... KB6003-WIP
Unfortunately not working (as RTSP is not available).
Tips, tricks greatly appreciated!
EDIT 01: Seems that RTSP should be available according to the datasheet.
https://www.hikvision.com/en/products/V ... KB8112-IM/
I probably need to find the correct RTSP stream.

Apologies for the late reply, work had gotten in the way.
The link provided works for me through VLC player!
But not in ZM, yet they are the exact same RTSP URLs.
Maybe I need to set something additionaly for it to work in ZM besides the FFMPEG codec?
From the ZM log:
2020-06-30 18:06:03 zmc_m3 94401 ERR Unable to open input rtsp://username:password@IPADDRESS:554/Streaming/Channels/101 due to: Invalid data found when processing input zm_ffmpeg_camera.cpp 379

Try source type: LibVLC in zoneminder if it works in VLC.
Also review
https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Finding_Camera_Stream_Paths
Test things out of ZM before using ZM. i.e. use vlc from gui, and ffmpeg from terminal to verify that these source type will work, then use the path you used, and the resolution they will print out, when/if they work.
It's faster to test outside of ZM, first.

DonZalmrol,
I don't have the Hikvision doorbell, but do have several of their other cameras on my ZM system.
The URL I ended up using was:
rtsp://username:password@192.168.0.1:554/Streaming/Channels/101?transportmode=unicast&profile=Profile_1
I had to create a username and password in the camera GUI. If I left it blank, I had problems.
Perhaps the above URL will work with the doorbell also?
I'd also recommend double checking SELINUX or IPTABLES is not blocking anything.
I'm embarassed to admit how much time I spent troubleshooting things when it was a simple firewall or SELINUX issue...
*EDIT* My source type is FFMPEG.

@Burger: seems my ZM cannot open the stream correctly, yet the settings are the same. My computer (different VLAN as my ZM and CAMS) can open the stream with VLC and ffmpeg.

You should test ffmpeg from the ZM server, generally. But, it looks as though it works. It's telling you the resolution 1280x720, and you have the path correct. Did you watch the output.mp4 to verify it is creating a valid video container?
Also you didn't mention if you tried source type: LibVLC. Post a screenshot of your source settings on ZM, and try ffmpeg from the ZM server.
If you have VLANs or firewall, etc, that is a possible point of failure.

From the ZM server I can't use the ffmpeg codec. it keeps stating that the used query/ code is invalid or missing arguments.
The current settings are:
- 1.png (27.1 KiB) Viewed 8756 times
- 2.png (23.75 KiB) Viewed 8756 times
changing it to libvlc doesn't resolve it.
FYI I have another Hikvision camera connected (DS-2CD2143G0-I). This a regular POE cam and works without any issues.
The cam is in the same vlan as the doorbells and connects to the ZM server that resides in a different vlan.

Can you post the output of the ffmpeg command you are using, and results?
You should verify the zm server can run ffmpeg on the command, and that it outputs to a valid video file. This means its very likely that the server can use it (ffmpeg) w/zm.
And obvious troubleshooting applies here. Try a reboot of the camera, network switches, try different paths, try different username/password.. If you are trying to run 30FPS of 1080p on an RPI1, you might have trouble, so in that case lower res, etc, etc...

I will test the suggested tomorrow evening.
The server that hosts ZM should be sufficient, its hosted as a VM with decent HW specs (4x CPU (Intel Xeon E5-2650 v3), 8GB RAM).
Switches are good, username/ password, ...
Command I would need to look up, for ZM you don't need to install this codec separately no?
If so, this is probably the reason why its not working.

Apologies for the late reply, things got in the way of further troubleshooting this.
With Ffmpeg I am able to open up a stream of the camera's without any issues.

The errors regarding SPS and PPS etc are just FFMPEG waiting for the keyframe in order to start playing the video. You'll notice it plays after those errors.
I cannot help with why the camera won't work via ZM. It does sound like there is something ZM doesn't like about the stream.

yeah that's what I'm starting to think.
Now these door stations are little bit different in regard in set up then the regular cams.

Is there anything stopping you running the ffmpeg tests from the ZM server?
