Cannot Connect to Dahua IPC-HFW4300S 3MP

Anyone have any hints on this.. I saw a couple of posts from 2012 but that didn't seem to work.

I cannot get Sighthound to talk to these cameras but it works fine from my browser.

Hi [email protected],

I'm sorry to hear you're having troubles connecting with these cameras. What stream settings are you using? I did some research on this model and found a few different stream settings for you to try. Please select "Other IP Address" from the "Camera Type" drop-list and try each of the following:

Protocol: rtsp
Port: <leave empty>
Stream Path: /

Protocol: rtsp
Port: <leave empty>
Stream Path: /live

Protocol: rtsp
Port: <leave empty>
Stream Path: /cam/realmonitor

I've attached an image of how the last example should look once entered. If none of the above work please submit a bug report by going to Help > Report a Problem so we can take a look at your logs.

Regards,

-Devin

I tried each one of your suggested settings. I just get the "Could Not Connect" in the blue window.
