RTSP Streaming
To utilize RTSP streaming authentication, make sure that you have set a password for the Network
Camera rst; please refer to Security on page 27 for details.
Authentication: Depending on your network security requirements, the Network Camera provides three
types of security settings for streaming via RTSP protocol: disable, basic, and digest�
If basic authentication is selected, the password is sent in plain text format, but there can be potential
risks of it being intercepted� If digest authentication is selected, user credentials are encrypted using
MD5 algorithm, thus providing better protection against unauthorized access�
The availability of the RTSP streaming for the three authentication modes is listed in the following table:
Access name for stream 1 ~ 2 or 1 ~ 5: MD7530/7530D supports dual streams simultaneously and
MD7560/7560D supports multiple streams simultaneously� The access name is used to differentiate the
streaming source�
If you want to use an RTSP player to access the Network Camera, you have to set the video mode to
MPEG-4 and use the following RTSP URL command to request transmission of the streaming data�
rtsp://<ip address>:<rtsp port>/<access name for stream 1 ~ 2 or 1 ~ 5>
For example, when the access name for stream 1 is set to live�sdp:
1� Launch an RTSP player�
2. Choose File > Open URL. A URL dialog box will pop up.
3. Type the above URL command in the text box.
4� The live video will be displayed in your player as shown
below�
