Tried several users of the QNAP, including admin, all failed. VLC is a free and open source cross-platform multimedia player and framework that plays most multimedia files as well as DVDs, Audio CDs, VCDs, and various streaming protocols.

#VLC STREAMER ON QNAP PASSWORD#

But VLC will not log in, and the QNAP logs just show a login failure for that user (not actually what the issue is, but guessing that it is not passing on the password correctly). Other applications are logging into the drive just fine, including other applications on this same device. Things such as 'Recycle Bin', etc, are showing upĪttempts to log into network drive (QNAP TS-231P) over SAMBA fail every time. Hidden folders are seen, even though menu item for hidden files is unchecked. No matter which folders are uncheck and which way I exit that menu, the items are not saved and they are all checked when I go back into that menu. Multiple times I attempted to uncheck folders (the uncheck menu also exhibited some strange behavior, such as bouncing back to the top). Unchecking folders to perform media searches in does not uncheck them. I did a search for my errors but didn't see anything that worked for me.

#VLC STREAMER ON QNAP ANDROID#

First time use of VLC on Android TV, though. Note I am an experienced user of VLC, computers & networks (system & network administration, programming). My understanding is that with NVR turned off in the app (which should then turn it off on the camera) I shouldn't be able to access the camera, but I can.Several errors with VLC on Android TV. In QNAP Surveillance Station and in ONVIF Device Manager, the camera was still detected. Then I did the following - in the iOS YOOSEE app, I disabled the NVR connection. I can control the PTZ but not get a picture. If I follow the same steps as above, but not logged in to the ONVIF Device Manager application with the camera's credentials and I have the exact same experience. So I am connecting to the camera because I can control the lens position motor, but I can't get a picture/signal. On the left under Local Network, click on Universal Plug’n’Play.

If I go to 'PTZ control' link I can move the camera with the onscreen controls but get an 'The underlying connection was closed: the connection was closed unexpectedly' message. Here’s how you access media from UPnP or DLNA using VLC: Open up VLC Media Player.

At the bottom of the screen it shows the URL 'rtsp://192.168.1.100:554/onvif1 which (except for the username and password) is the same URL that works in VLC.

If I try to go to 'Live video' link I get a 'NO SIGNAL' message.

If I click on the camera in the device list, I can connect to the camera.

I logged in with my camera's admin/****** credentials.

I have downloaded and installed the ONVIF Device Manager from to try to do some more troubleshooting. I tried again with the correct credentials and the stream opened, so the username and password are correct. VLC gave an error message that it couldn't connect. I wanted to confirm that the username assword credentials were correct so using VLC I opened the network stream without the username assword in the URL. I can connect to the camera and view the stream. Step 4 Now, the Stream Output dialog box would open, check the Play Locally box and click Stream to proceed to provide the. Step 3 Click on the Stream button and then choose Settings. Step 2 Click on the Add button and choose the file you want to stream.

#VLC STREAMER ON QNAP INSTALL#

I know the camera is working on my network because in VLC if I open a media stream with the RTSP address syntax you suggested above (i.e. Step 1 Download and install VLC Media Player first, launch it, and click on Media>Open File. Password: ******** Result: When I try to test this configuration I get the same error message 'Failed to create the RTSP connection to the network camera.' The same as in the screenshots from user 'demos' above. Please check the RTSP port is correct and the RTSP streaming access name is 'live.sdp' on the network camera.' RTSP Method Password: ******** Result: When I test I get an error 'Failed to create the RTSP connection to the network camera. ONVIF MethodĬamera Model: ONVIF Cameras(Recording Only) I have tried to use both the ONVIF and the RTSP method. I have tried to set this camera up in QNAP Surveillance Station version 5.1.5.4.0 (9). If I nav thru VLCs Open File I can play media files, no problem, works like a champ.
