* Some Example connections are below. The Examples below translate to : rtsp://username:password@IPAddress:rtsp port/rtsp link address

Other popular rtsp link end addresses: for many IP cameras:
 /onvif/device_service 
ARECONT: 
/ch0.h264 
AXIS:
 /onvif-media/media.amp

Examples:
Follow This
rtsp://username:password@IPAddress:rtsp port/rtsp link address

It is important to add the port # after IP Address, common RTSP port is :554

While only the RTSP URL is required for adding the IP camera source, the formatting of the URL will be different from model to model.
The common format of the RTSP URL is:
rtsp://[username:password@]ip_address[:rtsp_port]/server_URL[[?param1=val1[param2=val2]…[paramN=valN]]

RTSP URL Parameters(Note that in most cases, the word server can be freely interchanged with the words IP camera as every IP camera has an RTSP server built in. Parameters in brackets are optional.)
ip_address
Typically, the RTSP servers use DHCP to obtain an IP address automatically. The servers usually provide a utility for detecting the server's IP address. This can be in the usual IPv4 format (xx.xx.xx.xx), or it can be a valid host address accepted by the standard function inet_addr.
For example, localhost is equivalent to 127.0.0.1. This is usually the IP address of the sending (server) computer.
rtsp_port (Optional)
The port number on which the server is listening for RTSP commands. The port must be a number from 1 to 65535.
Port 554 is the default for RTSP.
username / password (Optional)
For servers that use authentication, you will need to add your username and a password as part of the RTSP URL.
server_URL
Each RTSP server has its own relative server URL, so you need to consult the server's manual to obtain it.
paramN=valN (Optional)
Extra parameters on this context are server parameters which can be used to control compression, video size, etc. See the examples below for such parameters.

Example RTSP URLsThese examples are here to merely show the possible formatting for the RTSP URLs. They will not work for testing RTSP sources.
Panasonic IP camera example
rtsp://192.168.1.111/MediaInput/h264
Sony IP camera example
rtsp://192.168.1.111:554/media/video1
Axis IP camera example (H264/AAC codecs used)
rtsp://root:password@192.168.1.111:554/axis-media/media.amp?videocodec=h264&audiocodec=aac
Axis IP camera example (MJPEG/G711 codecs used)
rtsp://root:password@192.168.1.111:554/axis-media/media.amp?videocodec=jpeg&audiocodec=g711XSplit Broadcaster also supports the special parameter \rtsp_transport:udp to force the connection mode to UDP instead of the default (and recommended) TCP.
