V380 Wifi Camera: How to Enable RTSP and Stream!

Just bought a cheapo Wifi IP Camera. MYR39.90 (On sale) (About $10).
shopee.com.my/product/1911620...
Spec says it supports RTSP which is perfect for my Home IoT project. But as I search around, the rtsp doesn't work. It does came with an app and it works thru the app.
So, I asked their technical person and told me how to do it. It turns out the camera needs to enable rtsp by SD card file. This video outlines how to do that and therefore enabled the rtsp stream.
RTSP URL: [YOUR CAM IP]/live/ch00_0
It does not need user/pass info.
Go here to download the ceshi.ini file:

god bless you for uploading the files! i dug far and wide to not find ANY way to "contact the technicians"! it worked!

[@Fudders]

Excellent, it works! It looks like RTSP was already enabled on my camera, but what I didn't know was the correct URL to access it. Now "my fishes are happy" too! Thanks 👍

[@jeeezo]

how did you get the right url???

[@Fudders]

@@jeeezoIt's in the video description above. Just substitute in your camera's IP address... [YOUR CAM IP]/live/ch00_0

[@pnddrw]

Hey I was wondering if it will work too on a 360 degree camera from v380 too?

[@gene_Code]

No idea. I don't have that camera to test.

[@A_Lesser_Man]

ch00_0 is for SD. ch00_1 is for HD. i do this, and i get no sound! what gives?

[@otaku000]

i need open ports? its give me an error :(

[@mathesar]

This is such a sketchy camera the way it has to be setup with the stock software lol, the V380 I got doesnt have an SD card slot so guess I'm stuck with being logged into China.

[@technowofficial5527]

Hello can someone help me get audio

[@eduardotavares8623]

With this file, the camera is now recognized via ONVIF by the DVR and I'm also saving it to HD

I wanna ask,how to connect? Cctb to nvr/dvr?

[@eduardotavares8623]

@@daffaradityaumar7771 Good morning! You must choose onvid protocol in DVR There is necessary that the dipositiv has a ip entrance After activate it's only perform the search

[@andrewcoppin7223]

After the ceshi.ini file has been run will it still connect via the V380 Pro app on an iphone?

[@gene_Code]

I am using android. and v380 pro app still works after adding ceshi file.

[@andrewcoppin7223]

@@gene_Code Great, thanks. I read somewhere that the RTSP feed is not password protected and therefore open to anyone if the port is opened. Are you aware of a way around this but still having external access?

[@raphaelanimetv1905]

@@andrewcoppin7223 does yours disconnect about 10 hours or something?

[@AndreLuisPorto]

@@andrewcoppin7223 I'm trying this right now and my cam streams in rtsp without password. Even if i change to a new password via v380 app, it still working without password. There's no problem in LAN but i want to open this cam to WAN. Still researching... Stay in touch.

[@timothylampung8002]

how do i get the ip address of my cam? doesnt show on the app

[@dheerajpareek10]

you can see your Camera IP in your Router(Modem) Portal , It Will Also have The Name of The Device ID which is written in back of this wifi.

[@pauldev17]

How do i know the ip address of the ip camera?

[@gene_Code]

You have to connect to the camera using its app first. In the app, you can access the camera wifi settings, where you specify the SSID/password of the wifi network. Then, once your camera is connected to the wifi, you can use Who's On My WIFI app (the one I used: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.magdalm.wifinetworkscanner&hl=en&gl=US) to figure out the camera IP. (Basically, off the camera, then get the list of devices in the app, then turn on the camera, and the new IP that pops up, is your camera IP). I think there is a way to setup static IP for your camera too but I have not tried that.

[@ryanr2770]

can this work with google nest hub? (google assistant)

[@Clyde6790pYoutube]

no

[@ahmadshiddiqn]

hello, can this work for V380 PTZ (not wireless) too? thanks

[@shihabalamabir5285]

Did it work ?

[@raphaelanimetv1905]

how to find the IP??

[@zalnars7847]

Router, nmap or set a static IP in the app

[@rizkiadisaputra5971]

Hahah you funny bro , system is dunning

[@karrie.]

no user/pass info also means the cam is wide open for the world

[@gene_Code]

No. nobody can access the local network.
