Does the Generic Camera in HG support the RTSP protocol for a FFMPEG connection?

[Acorlin]

I have been trying to make an Apexis dome IP camera model AH9063CW work within HG. My other Apexis non dome cameras that are older work fine. The new dome camera supports RTSP. I have tried ---
rtsp://IPADDRESS:554//av0_1
rtsp://IPADDRESS//live/av0
http://IPADDRESS/videostream.asf
And every combination of .cgi, bin, snapshot, etc that I could find. I found detailed info on this page that was suggested to me--  https://www.ispyconnect.com/man.aspx?n=Apexis

Any suggestions on how to use the AH9063CW?
Thank you.

I don't have this camera but in my experience with others, if you can getting the camera to show an image in web browser window... then HG will display the camera images at that same URL.  I even use a weather radar animated gif in one of my HG "camera" widgets.  Did you try this URL...

http://IPADDRESS/cgi-bin/video_snapshot.cgi?user=[USERNAME]&pwd=[PASSWORD]

Try disabling the username/password from the camera as a test.  The username/password works on the two "cameras" I have tried (android app and windows yawcam program)

For my CCTV system I'm using iSpyConnect. Which is great but is limited, even with the API and ability to produce embeded code for html pages. I was hoping to incorporate my cameras with HG using the RTSP feed, however it's not currently supported. If there is enough interest then maybe Gene will find time to have a look at what's possible.

Worth opening a feature request to see what sort of response you get.
