Crestj 67 Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 (edited) Just been playing with the Security Cam Live plugin to see if I can get my Foscam 9900 camera working through Emby (which would be very helpful!) Normally use the Synology Surveillance Software which works great but Emby adds extra options. I have successfully played the stream using VLC so I know the URL works but when I add this to Emby the circle just spins. The URL contains the username and password and the password contains an @. rtsp://username:password-with-@-sign@IPADDR:Port/videoMain Could this be causing the plugin issues? Would be a massive pain to change it as it used all over the place for my Security setup. Anyone else have this issue? Like I say, it works in VLC with these @ signs so I assume it's the plugin not interpreting them correctly but cannot verify.

F688 0 Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Same here when trying to use a cheap DCS-930L. Works in VLAN not in Emby. Probably the user/password initiates a confirmation prompt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chef 3749 Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 (edited) @@PrincessClevage Can you chime in here? You got your FOSCAM cameras working with the plugin right? Perhaps an example of the specific rstp URL you used. What the '@' symbol was changed to the character code for '@'?

Crestj 67 Posted August 25, 2017 Author Share Posted August 25, 2017 Yes I think it's the @ in the password that's causing this to fail in emby as that's the same url format I'm using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chef 3749 Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 (edited) unfortunatley there isn't much I can do from a development side of things to fix that. It's emby that is creating the stream, I'm just pointing the plugin in the right direction. Hope that isn't a deal breaker.
