Blue Iris RTSP output

[TRLcam]

Is there a way to connect to a RTSP stream output from Blue Iris showing all the cameras in one stream? I thought I read somewhere here that it is possible, but now cannot find the thread.

Your Blue Iris web server now is also an RTSP server. This opens up even more
interconnectivity options between Blue Iris and other systems (home automation, video
players, etc.) Use the URI /{cam-short-name} or /{group-name}. Authentication is completed
via Digest encryption only. As with /image and other web service calls, you may add stream,
quality, and image size parameters.

Thanks for the quick reply. The link in your post goes to the Blue Iris main sales page. But, think there is enough info in your post to get me going.

Thank You

Oh... think the forum does that for recognized terms.

Thanks.. I have this working fine with the camera-short-name. But, not with the group name. Any ideas?

Haven't used it for groups but just tested with VLC and it worked as:

rtsp:/user:pw@ip:port/BackyardGroup

^ Note forum strips the second / even when formatted with code.

/index gets all cams.

Yeah, that's the script I am using with VLC. (but with two forward slashes before user)

 

[TRLcam]

There ya go. /index plays all cameras. Just what I was looking for.

Thanks for your help!!!

Not sure. Streaming should be the same between camera and group. Authorization should be the same generally. Maybe something about the name? Any restrictions by user/group?

Oh good.
