Raspbery Pi2 Camera Monitor w/Rpisurv

[rafsch]

this is the stream on vlc player in windows 10

http://Admin:..........&@192.168.1.124:9004/videostream.cgi?

 

[cball]

This is not the code you copied from vlc player:

 http://Admin:..........&@192.168.1.124:9004/videostream.cgi?

A http-stream doesn‘t have Password and Username infront of the ipadress.

Try the two following streams in VLC and afterwords in rpisurv, if successful:

http://192.168.1.124:9004/videostream.asf?

or

http://192.168.1.124:9004/videostream.asf?user=admin&pwd=myadminpassword

 

[rafsch]

when i enter this vlc asks for the psw and username and gives no image

 

[cball]

And how about this:

http://192.168.1.124:9004/videostream.asf?user=admin&pwd=myadminpassword

Please remember to change admin and myadminpassword in the stream.

 

[cball]

Found a mistake in my code: it is cgi and not asf

try

http://192.168.1.124:9004/videostream.cgi?user=admin&pwd=myadminpassword

Please remember to change admin and myadminpassword in the stream.

I give up and go buy another camera this evening if I change something, the program will no longer start

 

[rafsch]

meanwhile bought another camera:
the sony snc-dh140 and tried with this rtsp stream
rtsp: / usernamewd @ 192.168.1.145/media/video1
but it is not working yet on rpisurv , I may have to update the rpisurv program first ?
the rtsp stream does work with vlc player in windows 10

 

[cball]

try it that way:

-url: "rtsp://username:password@192.168.1.145:554/media/video1"

Make shure that the cam delivers h264 to the main stream and not h265! This is set in the configuration of the cam:

http://192.168.1.145

Raspberry cannot connect to h265.

Can you make another screenshot of the next window „Streaming“

 

[rafsch]

this is the next
when I change this, my cameras no longer work either
I use the bottom line
- url: "rtsp: /
- rtsp_url: / this is what i use
if I use the top one the cameras don't work

 

[SvenVD]

this is the next
when I change this, my cameras no longer work either
I use the bottom line
- url: "rtsp: / ==> this is the syntax for rpisurv version 2
- rtsp_url: / this is what i use ==> this is the syntax for rpisurv version 1
if I use the top one the cameras don't work

What version are you running?

 

[rafsch]

after four days of searching it finally works with these settings
after a new installation to version 2

thx to cball & SvenVD

 

[rafsch]

[cball]

You mean freezing images?
Have a look here:

Most issues are posted with pictures and solutions.

On a RPI3 on a fresh Raspbian install after i install the RPI Surv after a reboot the Raspbian won't boot the desktop like before, it just shows the terminal, do you have an idea why is this happening?

 

[obqo]

Did you try startx?

You could also run raspi-config and change the boot options to desktop v CLI. Not sure why the rpisurv would change that.

 

[smole]

I found out that if i update the Raspbian this happens, if i don't RPI Surv work just fine.

I'm guessing some of the updates mess it up.

Rpisurv 3 has been released, take a look here and Release notes here.

Features:

Self-healing and health monitoring including watchdogs

• Every stream will be monitored by an external watchdog process, if the stream gets killed somehow, the watchdog will try to restart the stream/process. This gives you a very robust surveillance screen.
• Stream up/down detection and autorepositioning of connectable streams on the screen layout. For example: if you stop a camera (or just stop the server on the camera), Rpisurv will detect this and will recalculate/redraw the screen with the still available streams. The same is true if a previous unconnectable stream becomes connectable. All without any user interaction.

Automatically position streams (no manual coordinates calculation needed)

• Autocalculcate coordinates for every stream displayed.
• If you are not happy with the autocalculations you can customize yourself.

Rotation of screens (autorotate or with keyboard control)

• You can configure multiple screens and cycle between them in an automated way or via the keyboard.
• In the case of dual displays, you can configure multiple screens to be cycled between for each display.

Multiple types of streams

• You can also specify "image streams", to display images next to or instead of camera streams. The images will be auto-updated if they change remotely.

Dual Hdmi support

• Rpisurv will auto-detect if a second display is connected at boot and will automatically start the configured screens for the second display.
