Blue Iris Group Stream to Monocle

[nyc2pit]

Hi All -

I have IP cameras (12) setup and recording to my home server via BlueIris.

Was reading today, realized that BI can act as an RTSP server as well to send out streams of "groups." This fulfills a long held desire to be able to display a feed with 2 different cameras on a screen - wife wants to be able to to watch the kids in 2 distinct places.

So far, I've been unable to get this to display on my Echo Show. I get the error "Hmmm... The Camera isn't responding."

I AM able to view the RTSP feed through VLC.

I am using the @tcp-proxy as recommended in other threads. Also tried @tunnel.

Settings are as follows (copied from another thread that was successful in getting this working. Username and PW are setup for the BlueIris U/PW. RTSP link works when pasted into VLC (with required user/PW):



I'm at a loss here. Any suggestions?
