Cannot play Live camera feed from security CAM

Thanks. You also mentioned that you did the test with VLC from a different machine.

So, that explains why it's not working. You need to allow

  • both (TCP and UDP) for RTSP
  • and both (TCP and UDP) for 5556 - 5559 ports

on the Emby Server machine.

Following rules added to Emby server firewall. No joy so far:

554/tcp                    ALLOW IN    Anywhere                  
554/udp                    ALLOW IN    Anywhere                  
5556/tcp                   ALLOW IN    Anywhere                  
5556/udp                   ALLOW IN    Anywhere                  
5559/tcp                   ALLOW IN    Anywhere                  
5559/udp                   ALLOW IN    Anywhere

Just added those as well:
 

554/tcp                    ALLOW IN    Anywhere                   
554/udp                    ALLOW IN    Anywhere                   
5556/tcp                   ALLOW IN    Anywhere                   
5556/udp                   ALLOW IN    Anywhere                   
5559/tcp                   ALLOW IN    Anywhere                   
5559/udp                   ALLOW IN    Anywhere                   
5557/tcp                   ALLOW IN    Anywhere                   
5557/udp                   ALLOW IN    Anywhere                   
5558/tcp                   ALLOW IN    Anywhere                   
5558/udp                   ALLOW IN    Anywhere

If that doesn't work, you can install WireShark on the machine where you do the test with VLC.

With WireShark, you can record all network activity with the camera (filter: ip.v4 == 192.168.1.240) while playing the stream with VLC (start WireShard before starting playback).
This will give you a pretty good picture of the ports being actually used.

PS: Maybe the firewall config change needs a restart of the service (or even better a reboot)

I have done reboot (of Emby server) also I have tried disabling firewall all-together. 
No success so far.

I would reboot the OS. Rebooting Emby Server does nothing relevant to this.

The reason why I'm sure that it's a port communication issue is because, when looking at this:

You can see that ffmpeg gets all the stream information from the SDP. It even shows the camera name (" from DCS-5222L").

After the setup, ffmpeg waits for stream data coming in. But nothing happens. Looking at the last two timestamps, you can see that there's a time of 6 seconds for which it's waiting for stream data to arrive.

But no data is arriving actually.

One other thing you could try is this:

  • Install the Diagnostics plugin
  • Restart Emby Server
  • On the Diagnostic Options page, there's an ffmpeg find/replace feature
    • Find: -start_at_zero
    • Replace: -start_at_zero -rtsp_transport tcp 
  • Retry playback

@softworkzThanks for the reminder. I did restart the Emby server (PC) by powering it off. Firewall (ufw) is disabled. It reads Status: inactive
I will test with diagnostic plugin and will revert back.

One more idea: Cross-Test!

  1. On the Ubuntu machine (in case you have installed the desktop components) install VLC for Linux and try to access the stream from there.
  2. On the machine where you successfully tested the stream with VLC, try running ffmpeg with a similar command as shown in the Emby log

@HSEmbyBox - Have you had a chance to try these things?

Unfortunately no success. Do note software firewall on Embybox is fully off/disabled.

Ok, on option two i was presented with number of issues:

Invalid loglevel "timing". Possible levels are numbers or:
"quiet"
"panic"
"fatal"
"error"
"warning"
"info"
"verbose"
"debug"
"trace"

So I changed it to "info"

Unrecognized option 'print_graphs_file'. Error splitting the argument list: Option not found
So I removed that argument

Unrecognized option 'print_graphs_file'. Error splitting the argument list: Option not found
So I removed that argument

Yup that's what I have been doing, rebooting (power cycling) the OS or the bare metal.

Your test goes at least a bit further than in the Emby log.

The modifications you did to the command line are all correct!

What's missing now is to specify an existing output directory. (as /var/lib/emby/transcoding-temp/F5EA95/F5EA95_%d.ts) most likely doesn't exist.
(you need to replace it with a valid path twice)

You can try with and without -rtsp_transport tcp 

Other things you can try is to remove -f rt sp -stream_loop -1

Now, let's try the same on the Emby machine.

Here's what I get when I run it on Emby box:
