VSOM RTSP

[sharpgate]

Hi,

Is there a way to subscribe to a CAM's RTSP stream using VSOM? Does the operation manager provide any kind of API to facilitate this?

I know about the CAM API but the problem is that it only works with Cisco IP cameras. I have a few cameras that are attached to the VSOM through and encoders..

Thanks

We can use RTSP interface from the VSMS (Video Surveillance Media Server, not VSOM) to receive video streams via RTSP. Snip from Cisco Video Surveillance Media Server 6.0 version user guide :

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/physical_security/video_surveillance/network/media_server/6_0/user_guide/vsms.pdf

To view a live stream the user should enter a URL of the format

rtsp://:554/live/

Example:

rtsp://your-Media-Server.cisco.com:554/live/p_cisco2500Cam15

To view an archive stream the user should enter a URL of the format

rtsp://:554/archive/

Example:

rtsp://your-Media-Server.cisco.com:554/archive/cisco2500Cam15_archive
