Troubleshooting IP Camera Compatibility with ONVIF and RTSP Protocols

[djfluke]

Hello everyone, I recently purchased an IP camera from Aliexpress.
I was assured that it would work with the ONVIF and RTSP protocols.
However, there is no setting in the ICSee app to activate this function.
After searching the internet, I downloaded the CMS program to perform a firmware update.
I found a firmware online that is compatible with my camera, but even after performing the update, these features are not unlocked.
I can help you. The firmware you found is "000807B4.1IPC_XM530V200_X2C-WQ_WIFIXM713G.713g.Nat.dss_V5.00.R02.zip".

What's the model of camera, does the spec suggest it's cloud-based? (disclaimer : I'm unfamiliar with the ICSee app)

Assuming you've been able to provide the camera with an IP address on the same network segment as your PC, you can check some aspects of ONVIF support with ONVIF Device Manager

Download ODM for free. Device Manager for ONVIF-based Network video devices. ODM is a ONVIF protocol implementation of Network Video Client (NVC) to manage Network Video Transmitters (NVT), Network Video Storage (NVS) and Network Video Analytics (NVA) devices. Implements Discovery, Device...

sourceforge.net

Give ODM some valid logon credentials (top left of the window) and it will probe automatically for ONVIF devices on the LAN.

If that works OK, check out the 'RTSP URL' at the bottom of the Live Video page and see if it works using VLC media player to play the video stream.
