Blue Iris Config for Chinese Camera PG2285i

[thepfef]

Cant get this camera to work with BI. Connects fine via Chrome, etc. I know the correct path for streaming video is: rtsp://xxx.xxx.x.xxx:554/stream0?username=admin&password=aaaa, as I can stream successfully with VLC media player. Does anyone know what fields to fill out in the Blue Iris "Network IP Camera Configuration" to produce the RTSP URL above?

Make, Model, Video Path, etc.? Should the user and password fields be left blank and then added in the video path?? etc.

Nothing seems to work.

Camera is advertised as a Hikvision clone. Model number on the box is PG2285i.

Thanks for any help.

I'm afraid with a no-name camera you may have to keep trying different permutations until you can get the image. You may get some help from "Onvif Device Manager", but it's never helped me much !

Did BI5 not manage to find anything when you did the search ? It's usually fairly successful.

Do you have the option in the camera config to not require authentication for the stream? You'd be able to dumb the config down if it's not required (at least for testing).

This is what my configs look like (I don't have your model) but maybe it would help?
