4.3.5 RTSP

RTSP is a standard for connecting a client to establish and control streaming data over the web. If you
want to allow third-party devices or software to access video/audio streams from the IP camera over the
network, you must configure the RTSP ports. You can provide five streams according to the specific
codec mode with different RTSP port.
To use an RTSP player to access the camera's stream, you have to use the correct RTSP URL to request
the streams. Refer to the table below for RTSP URLs:
Stream
Primary A/V stream
Primary Video stream
Secondary A/V stream
Secondary Video stream
Audio stream
Note:
1. When using RTSP to access the camera audio streams, you can only access the one-way audio
from the camera to your computer.
2. Port numbers 7777~7781 are reserved by the system. Even if ports 7777~7781 are not used by
RTSP, they cannot be used by other services.
