I'm trying to determine the RTSP URL for a Dahua IPC-HDW5231R-Z that will auto login for a Raspberry Pi
Using VLC Media Player, I'm able to see the video using either of the following URLs but with a manual login:

rtsp://192.168.4.82:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=1
or
rtsp://192.168.4.82:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=1&unicast=true&proto=Onvif


When I insert my (actual) ID and password I get a login fail: "VLC is unable to open the MRL"

rtsp://admin:password@192.168.4.82:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=1
or
rtsp://admin:password@192.168.4.82:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=1&unicast=true&proto=Onvif

Do I have the ID and password formatting correct?

Hi
Using vlc on windows pc with
Code:
rtsp://admin:password@192.168.1.108/cam/realmonitor?channel=0&subtype=0
:working fine for me
 
I appreciate you checking. My password is pretty long and has some special characters. Perhaps that's the issue.

I did also check it with and without the port after the IP, but that didn't make a difference.
