Blue Iris v4 works but v5 not, RTSP, EufyCam 2k indoor
Posted: Tue Dec 01, 2020 4:46 am
I am using Blue Iris v4 with a few Eufy 2k Indoor Cams, there was no issue, all good.
Today, I decided to try Blue Iris v5, but cannot get the app to connect to the cameras right.
See the v4 config image below. I tried to replicate it by
attempt 1:
- set video config as "rtsp://192.168.1.150/live0"
- no user name and password as before, RTSP port = 554
- outcome is, error camera no signal
- this should be the most straightforward way to specify RTSP
attempt 2:
- set video config as "http://192.168.1.150/live0"
- make = generic, model = *RTSP H.264/H.265...", cam# = 1
- main = "", sub = ""
- outcome is, error camera no signal, error 800002741 failed to connect
attempt 3:
- set video config as "http://192.168.1.150"
- make = generic, model = *RTSP H.264/H.265...", cam# = 1
- main = "/live0", sub = ""
- outcome is, error camera no signal
attempt 4:
- set video config as "http://192.168.1.150"
- make = generic, model = *VLC-compatible RTSP", cam# = 1
- main = "/live0", sub = ""
- outcome is, YES got image, but disconnects every minute or so, when v4 never had any disconnect issue
So what is the right config for v5 with the v4 config shown below? Really weird that v5 took a step backwards...
