Rtsp: //10.1.1.130/). I have tried with both "Web Control" and "Media Player", but without success. Anyone to give me some indication or suggestion on how I could do? Thank you

Thank you Hello, There are some requirements for that. I did it on an RT PC. It only plays videos through the HTTPS protocol, I used the Web control. You will have to import the .cer certificate, your camera model should provide this, and install it in the browser that runs Unified. Your camera should provide a link like this one (https://1xx.1xx.1x.XXX:443/cgi-bin/mjpg/video.cgi?channel=1&subtype=1) But you can test directly in the browser first to see if it works and then do it in Unified. good luck.

Thank you http://umediaserver.net/ Install the media server and use the attached custom web control to watch video stream. It only works when the host and the client are on the same machine due to some cross-origin restriction. It has been a while since I've made the cwc so it might not work out of the bat.

I just have to figure out how to scale the stream. instructions: Install the streaming server umediaserver.net Configure the media server, see Attachment as example. And install the Unreal media player from umediaserver.net and test the stream. Install the custom web control {EC390052-7904-4DFD-BB6E-A6F462340086}.zip: see instructions at https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/us/en/view/109779176 Update: The Unreal Media Server uses a port that must be available to the WinCC web server during the start of WinCC web server, and during WinCC Unified Configurator with certificate handling. Turn off the media server during the configurator. During automatic start of WinCC, the Services UMediaServer startup type must be set to Automatic (Delayed Start).

Adjustment made in index.html, remoteVideo width="100%" height="auto" Attachment {EC390052-7904-4DFD-BB6E-A6F462340086}.zip (218 Downloads)
