Network Sources
Network sources available on the same network as your device, such as those from IP cameras, can be decoded and used as inputs. Inputs are added and managed via the Harvest control application.

RTSP

Real-Time Streaming Protocol is typically used for streaming IP cameras. They are unique to camera manufacturers and can differ between models. The URI of the source must be known before it can be used as an input. If authentication is enabled on the source device, the user name and password must be known and included in the URI address.

URI

rtsp://[user]:[password]@[Host IP]:[RTSP Port]/stream

Example URI rtsp://admin:admin@192.168.1.56:554/s0

RTP

Real-Time Transport Protocol (RTP) is a network protocol for delivering audio and video over IP networks. RTP typically runs over User Datagram Protocol (UDP). RTP differs from RTSP in that the RTP source needs to know the IP address of the receiver beforehand, as it pushes the video stream to that designated IP.

URI

rtp://[Receiver IP]:[RTP Port]

Example URI rtp://192.168.1.56:5004

UDP

Video data can also be transmitted and received over plain UDP. It acts similarly to RTP where the video source will push data to the receiver, requiring in advance to know the destination before streaming can occur. Generally,
it’s preferable to use RTP instead of plain UDP if the user has the choice due to inbuilt mechanisms like jitter compensation in RTP.

URI

udp://[Receiver IP]:[UDP Port]

Example URI udp://192.168.1.56:5004

HTTP

HTTP streaming comes in several formats; Direct HTTP, HLS, and HTTP DASH. Currently only Direct HTTP is supported by Nodestream but it is not recommended.

URI

http://[Host IP]:[Host Port]

Example URI http://192.168.1.56:8080

Multicast

Multicast is a one-to-one or more connection between multiple Decoders and the source. Connected routers must be multicast enabled. The range of IP addresses reserved for multicast is 224.0.0.0 – 239.255.255.255. Multicast streaming can be delivered via RTP or UDP.

URI

udp://[Multicast IP]:[Port]

Example URI udp://239.5.5.5:5000

Taolo ea PTZ
Your Nodestream device is able to control network PTZ cameras via the Windows Harvest Control Application. Cameras must be ONVIF compliant, enabled, and configured with the exact security credentials as the associated RTSP stream.

· Set source resolution to 1080 and frame rate to 25/30 for best performance.
· Use the ping tool in the Web Interface and/or software such as VLC from a PC connected to the network test/confirm network stream IP’s and URL's.
· Direct cameras away from dynamic references where practical, i.e. water, trees. Reducing image pixel changes will decrease bandwidth requirements.
