I just installed an Annke N48K NVR along with some C500 cameras and can’t seem to be able to get them to work with HA, perhaps someone has figured out the correct config.
The following rtps url works just fine in VLC so I know it is correct: rtsp://USER:[email protected]:554/Streaming/Channels/101 for main stream and rtsp://USER:[email protected]:554/Streaming/Channels/102 for substream.
This is how I am trying to add them (secret is -rtsp_transport tcp -i rtsp://USER:[email protected]:554/Streaming/Channels/101:
camera:
- platform: ffmpeg
name: Front Right
input: !secret front_camera_right
- platform: ffmpeg
name: Front Right Low Q
input: !secret front_camera_right_low_q
Although it worked with /Streaming/Channels/xxx in VLC, ZM didn’t seem to like it. It may be the same issue? I forget the model numbers but can check in later and find out.
That probably won’t work since the cameras do not have their own IP, I need to change the end part Streaming/Channels/101 camera 1, Streaming/Channels/201 camera 2, etc
Also read somewhere that browsers do not like h265 (when I set up the cameras I had to download some plugin for chrome) will try h264 as well
Ah, I see. We ended up scrapping the supplied DVR due to the PSU dying after about 7 weeks and trying to converse with their support team was somewhat challenging.
They work wonderfully with ZM if you do end up in the same boat.
It seems to be this actually Stream - Home Assistant
Works ok on my android phone, my chrome desktop HA page doesn’t
I wonder are there any work arounds?
