Do you have any solution to enable RTSP in TP-link NC 250 model?

Hi expert, do you have any solution to enable RTSP in TP-link NC 250 model? This is the latest model from TP-link

Hi,

I own an NC250 and found that the RTSP and HTTP links provided (https://github.com/reald/nc220) work for the NC250 as well. However, I found a bug in the firmware where you have to change the Frame Rate setting in the camera's web page, hit save and then the RTSP stream starts working. You can change it back to your desired Frame Rate again but It needs to change and be saved once to get the RTSP stream to work. This needs to be done each time you power up or reboot the camera.

I also found that 30fps does not work at all on the RTSP stream. I use VLC to view the stream.

I have reported these issues to TP-Link, so hopefully they address them in a new firmware version.

Firmware Version: 1.0.8 Build 160108 Rel.26086

Ahoy,

Here are my observations, @sovietmah and @teknotronix:

The NC 250 actually has rtsp://admin:admin@[device-ip]:554/h264_hd.sdp (thank you binwalk) that can be used when you switch on the device.

Whenever you change the video settings, this stream above disappears and moves to rtsp://admin:admin@[device-ip]:554/h264_vga.sdp.

I actually discovered this behaviour while writing a script to log in, change the FPS and log out before starting ffmpeg 😹!

I am amazed by TP-Link's engineering ;).

Cool, sorry, just to double confirm, so you means the original firmware
already support RTSP?

rtsp://admin:admin@192.168.0.106:554/h264_vga.sdp

using VLC, is not working for me, I already setup the camera and my IP
address is 192.168.0.106, and i still using the default username & password.

Works for me with all of these:

vlc rtsp://admin:admin@<IP>:554/h264_hd.sdp
mpv rtsp://admin:admin@<IP>:554/h264_hd.sdp
ffplay rtsp://admin:admin@<IP>:554/h264_hd.sdp

Are you getting an error message? Maybe try ffplay and see what it says.

Hi,

The RSTP feed works in VLC for me.
However it doesn't work on Genius Vision.
Anyone has any ideas what I am missing or has managed to get it to work in Genius Vision?

[morfikov]

I have NC250 and I've been playing with this camera for a while. It looks like settings in the camera admin panel maters in the case of h264_vga.sdp or h264_hd.sdp. I was able to get stream using:

$ cvlc rtsp://admin:admin@192.168.1.159:554/h264_vga.sdp

But only when the frame rate is set to 10 FPS. The other frame rates don't work with the above command, and I couldn't get h264_hd.sdp working at all.

The next thing is the following streams:

$ mpv http://admin:YWRtaW4\=@192.168.1.159:8080/stream/video/h264?resolution=HD
$ mpv http://admin:YWRtaW4\=@192.168.1.159:8080/stream/audio/mpegaacblock

I got this sniffing the network when I was connecting using the tpcamera smartphone app. The video stream command utilizes only 5-120 KiB/s, whereas the following one around 2500 KiB/s:

$ mpv --no-cache http://admin:YWRtaW4\=@192.168.1.159:8080/stream/video/mjpeg

The image is pretty much the same, but using h264?resolution=HD I get 30-40s delay, but it works fine. My smartphone works without delay. I don't know how to fix it, besides mjpeg works also almost without a delay.

OK
Now I tried with:
rtsp://admin:admin@[Ip address]:554/h264_hd.sdp using VLC, and it is working.
but unfortunately I still failed to setup RTSP in synology surveillance station. But mpeg succeeded.

here is my site.

Hello, I just got two questions about the N250 too.

Are
http://[ipofcamera]:8080/stream/video/mjpeg
and especially
wget --user=admin --password=YWRtaW4= http://[ipofcamera]:8080/stream/snapshot.jpg
working as for the N220?

In what resolutions are stream and snapshot?

[icyman61]

I have several of these cameras and would like to get them working. Has anyone got this to work with Blue Irus?

[igorfili]

Yes, I have Blue Iris and one Tplink NC250. Under Network IP Camera configuration select rtsp:// , then fill in with IPADDR/h264_hd.sdp or IPADDR/h264_vga.sdp. Fill in username and password fields and that should be all.

[devedetti]

Hi to all!! I have 5 NC220 cameras. The Onvif Settings by default comes with mjpeg (without sound, obviously).

Under Windows using ONVIF Device Manager (https://sourceforge.net/projects/onvifdm/) you can change the video streaming to h264.

Holly Charm!
