The main thing to note about the IP interface is that all adjustments will occur on the IP stream only. It will not affect
the HDMI, SDI or USB connections of the camera. In addition, presets set in the IP interface will not be the same as the IR
remote presets and vice-versa.
9. You should now be able to receive an RTSP stream from your camera. The following video,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmqI0hjT0UI&feature=youtu.be, shows how to setup an RTSP stream in
Wirecast. You’ll see how to use ONVIF to easily set up 2 PTZOptics cameras with Wirecast, the ONVIF feature
must be enabled in the “Network” settings for ONVIF discovery, in addition to setting up a standard RTSP stream.
10. You can test the RTSP stream in VLC media player. Once you install VLC and launch the program you should be
able to go to the “Media” drop down menu and then select “Open Network Stream”. In the network URL, you
should enter “rtsp://<ip-address>:554/1”. In the example below, for a PTZOptics camera with the static IP address of
192.168.111.84, the RTSP stream would accessed by entering rtsp://192.168.111.84:554/1. The “554” part is the port
number used by the cameras, and the “1” is the stream number. (There are two RTSP network streams available; one
for HD content “1” and one for SD content “2”)
