To receive multimedia the video stream from a camera via the RTSP protocol, the camera is to must support this protocol. Information on RTSP support is in For the information indicating the support of the RTSP protocol by the camera, refer to the official reference documentation for the this camera.

For proper operation of the RTSP grabber functionality, make sure that there are no network settings of the used hardware that prevent data transmission via the RTSP protocol.

titleNote.

To If you want to receive the RTSP stream it's required to that comes from the RTSP server of Axxon PSIM (seeConfiguring the RTSP Server module), then you must set the multicast value to the rtsp RTSP parameter in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\AxxonSoft\PSIM\Video\TransportProtocols registry key for a 32-bit system (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\AxxonSoft\PSIM\Video\TransportProtocols for 54a 64-bit system) registry section on the computer where the Camera object is created if RTSP stream is received from the rtsp-server of the Axxon PSIM software (see Configuring RTSP Server module). More . For more information about this parameter see in Changing , see Change the transport protocol used by IP - device section.

    The format of the address depends on the camera model and its firmware. It is specified in the technical documentation of the vendor. Generally

    To get video from two streams,
