  1. It's crucial to ensure the username and password you enter are accurate and correspond to the specific camera you are trying to decode. The credentials should match the login information for the camera's system. 
  2. If decoding the RTSP stream of IP cameras from other brands has been unsuccessful, it could necessitate integration efforts. Integration involves developing custom software to interface with the IP cameras from different brands. Collaboration with the camera manufacturer to understand their protocols and developing a solution that can effectively integrate with their products may also be required.

It's important to note that attempting to decode more than four streams simultaneously will exceed the codec's capabilities.
