HIKVISION RTSP STREAM SETUP

In this video we show you how to use RTSP / HTTP to stream IP camera video on an external third party, for example VLC player. You can also use RTSP stream URLs to live stream video to a website.
In this video we use Hikvision's 12MP Fisheye camera, DS-2CD63C5G0-IVS to demonstrate this function.

Hi, I am triying to get video from my DVR Hikvision to vmix, by RTSP, I did it but the image of the camera shows a gray screen interference

[@DVSLTD]

please turn H.265+ or H.264+ off as this will cause that , also under hik connect on network > advanced > platform access , turn it off to check the encryption is not causing the issue 😊

[@kayberry6292]

It seems that the video intercom doesn't play nicely with the MJPEG sub streams. So does that mean I can't stream live view to the internet of any camera I want to be able to view on the intercom? And why do Hikvision make it difficult to view the 8003 DoorStation camera on the internet?

[@DVSLTD]

Hi , are you using H.265+ and make sure the port used on the intercom matches the port use IE , 554 , 1026 etc 😊

[@kayberry6292]

I'm only using H264. Setting sub streams to MJPEG instantly closes the stream in the intercom. Hikvision UK emailed this: "Unfortunately this device does not support MJPEG stream, it only supports H.264 and we do not have a solution for it." So I haven't tried configuring the intercom ports. Are they wrong? Maybe the workaround is to leave the sub streams as H264 and rely on RTSP port forwarding using VLC as the viewer, but browser access preferable.

Hi kay , you would have to port forward the IP address of the devices you want to see on the WAN and the ports being used and replace the IP of the camera in the stream with the External IP of the site , this works when you have a fixed static IP on the site , but not when its not fixed, then you would need to use a DNS system like DynDns and use that address as the IP in the stream detail

hello how to using web rtsp with android studio ?

[@amsterdamn4829]

This is a good video. However, I have noticed a problem with HIKVision and their PVR's esp. in relation to the onboard PoE switch. It places those devices on a different network the LAN port which I have connected to my broadband and there appears to be no bridging between the two? I take it the only resolution is for all cameras and the NVR to be connected to the PoE switch such that IP addressing for the cameras and NVR can occur on the same subnet as the rest of my network such that I am then able to access those cameras via a stream on my network and beyond? any confirmation greatly appreciated. It's a shame in a sense that the onboard PoE will be defunct and in effect the PoE port capacity really serves as an indication of throughput i.e. the more native PoE the higher the throughput - however I digress!. Great videos by the way. You guys are good. - liked and subscribed :)

@@DVSLTD yes i have checked but later i got every thing ok by some changes in dvr ip and port forwarding in router

Hi Guys! thanks for this video! Is it also possible to stream video + audio? Greetings, Boy

[@DVSLTD]

Hey , yes the audio if present should work via that stream ,

[@DiggerDave1968]

Hi, Great video.When using VLC player, I can get the stream with no user name and password but can not get it to work when embedding those details. I know I have the log in details correct but it will just not work..... Any thoughts ?Cheers Dave

[@DVSLTD]

Hi Dave and thanks , are you using special characters like ? ! , I have had some issues before with that , if not I will take another look

[@DiggerDave1968]

@@DVSLTD Thanks for coming back to me so quickly. We have a # in the password so maybe thats it...I will give that a go. My NVR is a DS-7308HUHI-K4, I don't seem to have the same Intergration Protocol settings as shown in you video and wondered if this was a problem as well. I only have the ONVIF enable and no Hikvision CGI settings.....

[@DVSLTD]

@@DiggerDave1968 That’s ok , yes try the password without the # and see if this improves it , you will also need to disable the verification code in HIK-Connect if enabled as that stops this working. Also on the web interface of the DVR under security set RTSP Authentication to digest/basic , and under network and advanced , network service , make sure RTSP is enabled , and use H.265 not H.265+ 😊

Do you know how to get the third stream rtsp?

[@DVSLTD]

You can get it from the camera direct only using 103 as the channel number 😊

[@yaseenchoudhry9257]

@@DVSLTD I have tried to my wits end to get the third stream rtsp using channel 103 on DS-2DE4A220IW-DE, but I still cant access it. Do you have any other suggestions? Thanks so much for your reply.

[@JohnDoe-ed7vw]

In case anyone wondering Hikvision does not support this for encrypted stream, they need you to disable your security for it to work

[@ebashkan]

Hi, is there any other way to pass authentication? Because the method you mentioned is forbidden. Thank you for your help.

[@DVSLTD]

you cant put the username / password into the stream ??

[@ebashkan]

@@DVSLTD yes, it gives an error: "Subresource requests whose URLs contain embedded credentials (e.g. `user:pass@host/`) are blocked."

hikvision default password contents @ symbol how to specify in such case

Do you want the RTSP document

How do you access the third stream in Hikvision cameras?

[@DVSLTD]

Hi, this depends on the model used, it’s mainly used for 3rd party integration , some models you have login to the camera and enable the 3rd Stream , is this enabled?

[@eddytrochez]

@@DVSLTD Yes, it is enabled in the camera. Third party integration is the reason I want to use it. I do have the cameras connected to a Hikvision NVR and I have virtual host turned on, but I can't find a way to get the RTSP feed from the third stream. Thanks in advance.

[@DVSLTD]

Are you taking the stream via the IPC direct ? or you want to pull it via the NVR as its connected to the POE ports direct?

[@eddytrochez]

DVSLTD I’d like to know how to do both. Thank you for your help.

[@DVSLTD]

@@eddytrochez You can do it via the IPC direct , as far as I remember not via the NVR but I will test

[@pppaulpeter]

Hello David, Maybe next time you could introduce how to use rtmp protocol send the video& audio stream to youtube or facebook with Hikvision camera

[@DVSLTD]

Hi and yes sure once we have that setup correctly I will advise 😊

[@Tostaki92]
