If at first Milestone does not connect to the RTSP stream, select the Streams tab and verify Video stream 1 is selected for “Live” and (optionally) “Record”.After a short interval (around 5 seconds) Milestone should connect to the RTSP video stream successfully. Assuming the RTSP URL of your emulated stream is “rtsp://localhost:8556/”, you need to configure “Video stream 1” in the Properties Pane as follows, Select the Settings tab in the Properties Pane. Expand the newly-added device tree node and select the “Universal 1 channel driver (localhost) – Camera 1” child node.Click Finish and verify the Universal 1 channel driver device is successfully added to the recording server. You may have to create one the first time. Finally specify the default Camera Group.Click Next and verify you have another “Success”. Verify the “hardware” can be detected.Explicitly select the Universal 1 channel driver too. Enter the RTSP port number in place of the default Port 80. Clear all selections and select Universal | Universal 1 channel driver. Click Next again to arrive at the driver selection page. In Milestone Management Client, right-click a recording server and select “Add Hardware…”.Use VLC Player to verify the emulated RTSP video stream can be received and rendered if you have not already done so.The specific settings to configure on Milestone are described here. This also works for the software-based RTSP camera emulation recipe described in a previous post which you can use to test live view and recording on Milestone XProtect VMS even without real network cameras. There is a knowledge base article that describes how to configure and use it. Milestone XProtect comes with a Universal driver for ingesting RTSP media streams from generic network cameras.
