How can I use ONVIF client to fetch recordings from NVR? My NVR shows DataFrom and DataUtils spans over 2 days but no individual tracks. It's all one full video and audio file.

It looks like you may be able to find and download your media files using

Thanks!! The rtsp startime and endtime for playback works great, but is there a way to do it through ONVIF?

I think you may find the answer in section 6.5 and 6.5.1 of
https://www.onvif.org/specs/stream/ONVI ... g-Spec.pdf

With the replay streaming spec for Amcrest NVR of 8 channels, I got replay url in the form of rtsp://<ip>:<port>/cam/playback?token=RecordMediaProfile00000 (the token changes per channel) which is not same as the one provided in SDK PDF
VLC can play the replay url from the beginning of recorded time but starttime with the replay uri doesn't work.
VLC can play the RTSP playback url provided in the sdk from a specific timeframe.

I'm wondering why this difference is and how can I work with both the protocols

I tried setting the rtsp headers as specified in onvif streaming spec https://www.onvif.org/specs/stream/ONVI ... g-Spec.pdf
valid response is returned only for the first day of recording, there's 500 internal server error for any range other than first day.

@jackelzel

Did you ever figure this out?
