RTSP Video & JPEG Image
RTSP (Real Time Streaming Protocol) is a
standardized video streaming protocol. IP
cameras use it to provide the video to the
NVR. NVRs and DVRs use it to provide
video to the web client, app, etc.
The purpose of RTSP is to be compliant with
Onvif. RTSP sometimes is directly used by
third party NVRs or VMSs (Video
Management System).
RTSP Ports
The industry standard port for RSTP is 554.
This caused problems on some iOS devices,
so the NVRs/DVRs switched to port 8554.
Cameras: 554
NVR/DVR: 8554
Note: Custom ports can be used if needed.
A Note on Onvif
Onvif is an industry standard that allows
IPCs and NVRs from different
manufacturers to work together. The
default web and server port is 80; the
default RTSP port is 554.
LTS IP cameras use:
Onvif Version 2.2 Profile S
RTSP Video
rtsp://username:password@<address>:<port>/streaming/channel/<camera#><stream>
(Mainstream = 01 | Substream = 02)
Example 1: NVR/DVR Mainstream – Channel 16 (IP Address)
rtsp://admin:12345@192.0.0.64:8554/streaming/channels/1601 (Note the 8554 port)
Example 2: NVR/DVR Substream – Channel 3 (Domain Address)
rtsp://admin:[e-mail]:8554/streaming/channels/302
Example 3: IP Camera Mainstream / Substream (IP Address)
rtsp://admin:12345@192.0.0.64:554/streaming/channels/101 (Note the 554 port)
rtsp://admin:12345@192.0.0.64:554/streaming/channels/102
Note: The RTSP feed cannot be understood by a web browser. A media player plugin can be
used, but this requires HTML coding and is not supported.
Embedding video into a webpage is not supported. IPCs support six concurrent logins.
Some customers have had success with mirroring services that repeat the RTSP feed.
JPEG Image
http://username:password@<address>:<web-port>/streaming/channel/1/picture (IPC only)
Example 1: IP Camera JPEG Image (IP Address)
http://admin:12345@192.0.0.64/streaming/channels/1/picture (HTTP port defaults to 80)
http://192.0.0.64/streaming/channels/1/picture (browser requests credentials)
