Connecting to IP cameras through the ONVIF protocol

Description

Connecting to IP cameras through the ONVIF protocol

Connecting to an ONVIF camera through the ONVIF protocol (instead of directly the rtsp://... URL) give access:

- to the ONVIF information of the camera

- to the PTZ and other ONVIF features

Quick ONVIF connection

- to quick connect (without support of PTZ and other ONVIF features), use the "onvifurl://" prefix, e.g.:

VideoGrabber.IPCameraURL = "onvifurl://192.168.5.1:8080"

- to connect with PTZ support and other ONVIF features, use the "onvif://" prefix, e.g.:

VideoGrabber.IPCameraURL = "onvif://192.168.5.1:8080"

RTSPS support

To connect through the RTSPS protocol (for IP cameras that implement it), use the "onvifs://" or "onvifsurl://" prefix.

- quick connect:

VideoGrabber.IPCameraURL = "onvifsurl://192.168.5.1:8080"

- normal connect:

VideoGrabber.IPCameraURL = "onvifs://192.168.5.1:8080"

Sample code

VideoGrabber.VideoSource = vs_IPCamera

VideoGrabber.IPCameraURL = "onvifurl://192.168.5.1:8080"

VideoGrabber.SetAuthentication (at_IPCamera, "user", "password");

VideoGrabber.StartPreview();
