Question
Which are the RTSP request URLs of the SONY cameras for getting live stream?
Answer
The URL for RTSP stream (for example in VLC Media Player) should have the following format:
- rtsp://IP/media/video1
- or for Stream 2: rtsp://IP/media/video2
- or in case credentials are needed: rtsp://user:password@IP/media/video1
Note: If you cannot access one of the streams , the likely cause for this issue is that the stream is not enabled in the video codec settings.
Solution:
- SNC-DH140: In the web interface, go to Setup > Camera, and in the video codec Tab, Verify Image 2 Codec is not off.
- SNC-VM600: In the web interface, go to Setting > Video/Audio, and in the video codec Tab, Verify Image 2 Codec is not off.
