Finding a cameras video path

[lolson]

Is there a logical way to determine the video path of a IP camera that does not setup automatically?

I have a i3 International camera, model Ax52R that is H.264 compatible but I cant get it to configure properly.

Any ideas?

what software are you trying to get the camera to work with?

Blue Iris Ver 4

Blue Iris Ver 4

The camera is onvif compliant...use the onvif device manager and it will give you the rtsp stream.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/onvifdm/
In blue iris select the generic rtsp stream from the top of the list..

Thanks

onvif reports it incorrectly. I also followed your links and looked at the ispy site but there was no info for this camera.

how do you know its reporting it incorrectly?

well that's a good question. I guess I just assumed that being I get "No Signal" as a response, it was incorrect.

I know the creds are correct and address what am I missing?

You are likely not entering it properly in the path...please post an image of your video configuration settings in blue iris. Double check the ports as well.

@lolsonWhat is the rtsp path that ODM provides? You will need to enter that in the proper format (usually without the ip address and password)...into the path...

If you put what ODM shows for the RTSP string (bottom of the Live Video page) into VLC you can confirm independently that the value is correct and works.
Presumably there is Live Video in ODM when you access the camera?

@lolson did you ever get this working properly?
