Multiple instances of LiveFeed from 2cd2032

[mail.djain]

Hi, Has anyone managed to view live stream from Hikvision camera on multiple devices using http link

http://login:paswd@ip:port/Streaming/channel/1/preview

I can only open it on one device/one browser at a time. When I try to open the same link on another tab on same device or other, I get XML error.

Any idea, what i might me doing wrong .

It's the live stream link for Hikvision cameras that you can open in browser to get a live feed....works for Firefox but not chrome.

I keep clicking on the link, but it gives me bunch of smiley faces, must be a bug in the Hikvision firmware.

perhaps the OP just was showing us an EXAMPLE of the direct-to-camera URL he's trying to use...

Yes thats what I meant, the link post automatically gets formatted...i couldn't really post it as plain txt.

Checking again, if someone else has figured it out ?

the html feed is not ment to multicast, use rtsp for that

oops thats bummer...For my application I had to use http mpeg stream

 

[nayr]

you can get mjpeg out rtsp and its basically just an http connection too.. what application is it? give it a try, might work.

I am using to put a live feed on this -
https://community.smartthings.com/t/smarttiles-video-camera-compatibility/11633

Live feed appears as a tile on the webpage..but it's very unreliable...it's breaks the connection when I open the live stream on other page/device...rtsp is not supported yet

use the substream, which can be set to mjpeg encoding on the hiks.
(in cam's video tab, select substream and set the encoding)
won't be full-rez, but it sounds like you are just displaying thumbnails anyways...

Substream at 640 resolution is the one I am using...It only opens on one device at a time. If I try to open it on another device or another window I just get XML error...

 

[pozzello]

is your substream set to mjpeg encoding?
