RTSP Streaming

Authentication: Depending on your network security requirements, the Network Camera provides

three types of security settings for streaming via RTSP protocol: disable, basic and digest. If basic

authentication is selected, the password is sent in plain text format; there can be potential risks of being

intercepted. If digest authentication is selected, user credentials are encrypted in MD5 algorithm and thus

provide better protection against unauthorized accesses.

The accessibility of the RTSP streaming for the three authentication modes are listed in the following

table:

O indicates that the authentication mode is supported by the RTSP player.

X indicates that the authentication mode is NOT supported by the RTSP player.

Access name for stream 1 / Access name for stream 2: The access name is used to differentiate the

streaming source. When using a RTSP player to access the Network Camera, and the video mode is set

to MPEG-4, use the following RTSP URL command to request a transmission of streaming data.

rtsp://<ip address>:<rtsp port>/<access name for stream1 or stream2>

For example, when the access name for stream 1 is set to live.sdp:

1. Launch a RTSP player.

2. Choose File > Open URL. An URL dialog box will pop up.

3. Type the URL command in the text box.

For example:

rtsp://192.168.5.129:554/live.sdp
