Cannot connect to VStarCam

by Daruma » Fri Jun 24, 2016 4:45 pm

I have a wireless VStarCam on my home network which SightHound easily finds, but it won't connect to the camera and get video. I tried manually adding the rtsp stream URL that my other IP camera viewers successfully use (ONVIFIER, iSpy): "rtsp://192.168.1.160:10554/tcp/av0_0". Sighthound times out after a minute or so.

I have added two other rtsp cameras on the same network with no problem? Has anyone else run into a situation like this?

Thanks

Hello Daruma,

I'm sorry to hear you're having troubles connecting to this camera. What is the model number of your VStarCam camera? When you say it times out after a minute or two - does it display an image at any point or does it only ever say "Attempting to connect"?

I'd be happy to take a look at your logs for anything unusual if you could send a bug report by going to Help > Report a Problem. Be sure to link to this forum post in the report so we know it is from you.

Regards,

- Devin
