Question
How can I retrieve the 2nd Stream RTSP URL of the FLEXIDOME 3100i camera?
Answer
The RTSP URL for the second stream on the FLEXIDOME 3100i follows a straightforward format:
rtsp://<camera_IP>/inst=2
Replace <camera_IP> with the actual IP address of your camera to access the second stream.
Using Authentication
If your camera requires authentication (which is recommended for security), the RTSP URL can include your username and password as follows:
rtsp://<username>:<password>@<camera_IP>/inst=2
Be sure to replace <username>, <password>, and <camera_IP> with your camera’s credentials and IP address.
Important Configuration Notes
RTSP Port: By default, the RTSP protocol uses port 554. Ensure that this port is open and accessible on your network and camera settings.
Retrieving RTSP URLs: For ease of management and to discover RTSP URLs, you can use tools like the Onvif Device Manager, which helps detect camera streams and device configurations.
