Dahua cameras

Before you connect

Use subtype=1 for a substream. If playback fails, test an H.264 stream first and verify the selected stream is enabled.

1. Initialize the camera in its local interface and set a camera password.
2. Find the local camera address and RTSP port in network settings.
3. Enter the main-stream address below. For an NVR, replace channel=1 with the required recording channel.

Stream address

Main stream, then the lower-resolution stream:

rtsp://CAMERA_IP:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=0
rtsp://CAMERA_IP:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=1
