Making IP cam work with Raymarine mfd

[Flipflap]

Hi!

I have been trying to make some ip cameras work with a Raymarine mfd (it can display the stream from ip cameras, it has no settings what so ever, all is auto detected.)

A Dahua cam that I have worked pretty much straight out of the box. But some others, provison and
KNC-HDBi230 KT&C I have not been able to make work. I am not sure what the problem is, but I think it may be the url. I have tinkered around with Vlc and the first Dahua camera has a very different url string.

I am rather desperate to make this work, and if somebody wants to have a look through teamviewer I can pay well for a solution to my problem

I'd guess it's the Onvif capabilities of the Dahua camera that made it compatible straight out of the box. Less expensive and less sophisticated cameras don't provide this.

I tried another Dahua modell (mini dome). Did not work. Do you know if the url is transferred over the Onvif protocol? I think some investigation with wireshark is nessecersary...

Download the freeware Onvif Device Manager program and you can inquire on the Onvif profiles of your cameras.

I´ve been using the Onvif Device manager. It reports the working camera as Onvif 2.02. The others are 2.04 and 2.3 I think.

Upon deactivating onvif support on the other Dahua camera it works
