Does the rtsp endpoint accept codes (like GotoPreset)?

[bprager]

Hi,
I am trying to get record videos via ffmpeg but I would like to position the camera to a specific preset.
I know I can set it via http request before recording, like

Code: Select all

$  wget http://user:password@192.168.1.154/cgi-bin/ptz.cgi?action=start\&channel=0\&code=GotoPreset\&arg1=0\&arg2=1\&arg3=0\&arg4=0

and then start recording via

Code: Select all

$ ffmpeg -y -rtsp_transport tcp -i rtsp://user:password@192.168.1.154:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=1\&subtype=0 -vcodec copy -acodec copy -t 10 test.mp4

But is there a shortcut, so I can tell within the rtsp url to go to a specific preset in one command?

Thank you.

no, rtsp cannot do that. The cgi commands are specific to Dahua and its OEMS.

I meant to say ffmpeg cannot do that.

Dang edit button had already disappeared.
