Info
🧙TIPS:
  1. It's easier to switch video stream between main stream and sub stream by clicking "HD" and "SD" on the bottom page of Live View.
  2. If you are experiencing a black screen without showing video loss, it could be related to the video encoding settings. All you have to do is to change the video encoding format from H.265 to H.264, then it'll be back online on this page of preview. H.265 preview is not supported in Chrome when using our older hardware or firmware. However, with our new hardware or firmware, live video in H.265 format can typically be previewed without issues. If H.265 encoding is required for streaming video, it's okay to pull an RTSP stream into VLC player.

What's VLC Player?

VLC media player is known for its robust support for a wide range of audio and video codecs, including support for H.265 (HEVC) video decoding. If H.265 encoding is required for streaming video, VLC media player is well-equipped to handle RTSP (Real Time Streaming Protocol) streams encoded with H.265.

By pulling an RTSP stream into VLC player, you can take advantage of its compatibility with H.265 encoding, allowing you to playback and view video streams that are encoded using HEVC compression. This can be beneficial for scenarios where the source of the video stream requires H.265 encoding for improved compression and video quality.

VLC's ability to handle H.265 encoded streams provides flexibility for users who need to access and view video content that utilizes this encoding standard. Whether it's for surveillance cameras, IP cameras, or other streaming sources that utilize RTSP with H.265 encoding, VLC's support for H.265 decoding makes it a useful tool for viewing such content.
