RTSP not playing when use public ip

We have an app where we are showing live video using ip camera.

When camera + iPhone is on same network, we can see video using below link.

rtsp://admin:[email protected]/h264_stream

When we need to take live, we replace 192.168.1.1 with public ip we have, video is not coming in the app.

rtsp://admin:password@public_ip:8000/h264_stream

Any idea why this is happening?

Note : When we try to access camera using our public ip we have (in external app), it's working fine.

Any idea what we are missing? Like authentication required or any further setting is required?

Note : Camera is of ezviz company.

Solution

  • Ezviz camera default port is 554, so you must activate port 554 on your router. Once that is done, use URL as below and we are done.

    rtsp://admin:password@public_ip:554/h264_stream
