Most likely you scanned a QR code or input a UID number when setting those up, which means they are employing P2P (Peer to Peer) on servers owned/operated by Cobra and Night Owl, respectively.

With the Cobra, you possibly could use WireShark or some other network packet sniffer, looking for something that resembles a RTSP video stream but it could be like pulling teeth AND not yield any fruit.

The Night Owl is more likely to work with BI if you can get the right URL for the RTSP stream and port. What is the model # of the Night Owl?

P.S. - Welcome to IPCT! :)
