Zmodo And BI

[STEELGTR]

Hi Guys

Long time BI user on stand alone IP cams. Bought this Zmodo on a Black Friday whim:


http://www.zmodo.com/zmodo-4-channel-all-in-one-spoe-nvr-security-system-w-2tb-hdd.html


Can I incorporate the cams and/or the DVR into BI?

Appreciate any help!


thx

Welcome to the forum....the cams may not work standalone....however you should be able to pull the streams from the NVR..try the Zmodos from the drop down list..
As far as the cams..see if you can pull login to them when the are connected to the network...if so they may be sending an rtsp stream, but its hard to know..

Thanks, Fender. Fellow music man?

How does it work when you pull from an NVR? Can you only see 1 camera?


thx

yes, music man
No there is a separate stream for each cam..you can select the camera in blue iris (in the setup page where you select the NVR you can choose camera 1,2,3 etc

Cool. I hope it works.

Got it hooked up. Can view separate cams and nvr in a browser but BI won't see any of them. tries all the zmodo presets, using port 8000, no go!

try 10554 for the rtsp port...
You can try the zmodo options again..but if it doesnt work..try using generic rtsp (at the top of the list) and use this as the path rtsp://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:10554/tcp/av0_0

Tried all that ( the best that i could) and no luck. There is more than 1 generic rtsp?

You must have a setting wrong...check ip address, port, username, password....
Confirm the rtsp port on the zomodo itself..
looks like you should be using the zomdo ZH/ZMD option...

Looks like a post got delete. I'm able to view cameras using the IP Cam Viewer app on my phone. In and out of my local network. Ports are open and working.

post an image of your blue iris network settings for the nvr...

 

[STEELGTR]

here ya go

 

[fenderman]

Are you 100% cetain about the ip address and ports? There should be a network settings page in the zmodo that should list the info..

Positive, Like I said, the settings work fine in IP Cam Viewer, in and out of my local network; port 8000 is listed as the port for the video stream and is what works logging in on IE.

thx

[fenderman]

try using port 8000 as the rtsp stream and see if it works....ipcam viewer may be pulling the video in a different manner...

 

[STEELGTR]

keep getting this errror on inspect

 

[fenderman]

dont use the inspect button, it wont work for this setup...do it all manually.

 

[STEELGTR]

So, try every zmodo option in the pull down menu using http port 8000 media/video/rtsp and port: 10554 and attempt auto-configure on http, rtsp and port: 8000?

thx for your help

bob


edit: Tried the above, no go

 

[fenderman]

hmm..what model do you have selected on ipcamviewer? What port are you using?
