Resolving "Server returned 401 Unauthorized (authorization failed)" for IP camera

[Mohit-3196]

When an IP camera RTSP URL is added to AMS as a stream source but the broadcast doesn't start and the logs entries show

rtsp://usernmae:[email protected]:554/Streaming/Channels/102 with error:: Server returned 401 Unauthorized (authorization failed)
Even if tried with ffmpeg or ffplay it still gives same error

It is mainly due to the RTSP Authentication type settings on the camera itself and changing it to Basic resolves the issue.

Cheers!

Hi @Pi-Boss,

Hi @BenBuaronMS,
How are you doing?

Can you please tell me what issue you see with your camera and what kind of authentication it has?
Also, is it possible to access the camera?

Thank you.
