Hi All

I see there is a setting for changing the authentication but this appears only for RTSP?

I am trying to authenticate to the camera using NGINX using basic auth, with a username/password defined on the camera automatically by using 'proxy_set_header Authorisation "basic XYZ" however when we do a tcpdump I can see the camera is expecting a Digest auth.

I am trying to pull the substream into a Webpage and have NGINX proxy that without entering a username/password automatically. Unfortunately, it keeps asking me for the user/pass and I suspect from the tcpdump its because im sending a Basic auth and its expecting a Digest

Any help would be great!

Thanks

Hi did you ever solve that problem? I tried also to access my Dahua camera with basic authentication but it works only with digest authentication here.

IS it still possible to use basic authentication?

Thanks
