I can ping 192.168.15.20 just fine and the camera's online and I can connect to it with the android app I've tried opening rtsp://admin:password123@192.168.15.20:554/live/ch00_1 and this is the result from my vlc log file:

  • Either you don't have a route to 192.168.15.20 or the V380 is off. ip route will help with the first. – waltinator Jul 26 '20 at 01:48

  • Install nmap and zenmap, then portscan the camera. – waltinator Jul 26 '20 at 21:10
  • you want me to run what nmap or zenmap command and expect what info returned by them? – Mices Jul 27 '20 at 23:52
  • I had already assigned the camera a static ip address on my lan so I ran nmap 192.168.15.20

    Starting Nmap 7.60 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2020-07-27 21:08 EDT Nmap scan report for 192.168.15.20 Host is up (0.023s latency). Not shown: 999 closed ports PORT STATE SERVICE 8800/tcp open sunwebadmin

Maybe you have to activate RTSP in the Cam. Therefore, you have to create a text file with the following content:

[CONST_PARAM]
rtsp=1

Rename the file to ceshi.ini.

Copy it to the root of an empty SD card, put in the cam and repost the cam.

Then you will be able to connect to RSTP over rtsp://IPADRESS:554/live/ch00_1.

  • Can we connect to the stream without rtsp as v380 pro app use? I can see 2 open ports 8800 and 9800. – Nawal Oct 22 '22 at 02:59

    @Nawal doubtful, as it goes thru the internet (yes, camera manufacturers can watch you thru the camera). – AgentFire Mar 11 '24 at 10:19

    @AgentFire I agree, hard to trust them :| that's why I was looking to get stream locally and keep the camera isolated from internet. – Nawal Mar 11 '24 at 11:05

ceshi.ini post works perfectly just remember to follow bellow steps:

  • insert SD card with .ini file
  • turn on and wait for 2/3 minutes after boot
  • turn off camera
  • remove sd card
  • turn on again

otherwise it wont work

I saw a configuration that was very useful for me in file ceshi.ini

[CONST_PARAM]
rtsp = 1
rtsp_enable = 1
rtsp_ctrl = 1

and the same steps of @tito

now I see the onvif option in V380Pro app and i can connect using rstp: rtsp://[mi_IP]:554/live/ch00_1

or onvif: http://[mi_IP]:8899 in iSpy
