View the default stream from camera 1 if default port is used

rtsp://127.0.0.1:555/1

View the default stream from camera 1 when broadcasting in the Multicast mode if default port 555 is used.

Note. Connection to the RTSP stream is performed via the IP address of the broadcasting adapter, not by the destination IP address that is specified in the settings panel of the RTSP Server object and is used in internal logic

Receive the RTSP archive through AviExport when ArchViaAviExportAvailable=1 (see Registry keys reference guide).

time_begin and time_end in the request are UTC+0 time. If the time zone of the archive is different, specify the time, taking into account the time difference. For example, if the archive is located in UTC+4 and you need a period from 15:02:00 to 15:49:00, the above example is suitable

Note

If you use port 554 (default value), you don't need to specify it in the address line.

In the examples given above, specify the IP address of the computer hosting the RTSP Server object instead of 127.0.0.1.

The figure shows how to view video from the server.
