Add a New Surveillance Camera

Camera name: The identifying name for the surveillance camera.

RTSP address: Refer to the table below for common RTSP address formats for surveillance cameras. If the bitrate is too high, use the sub-stream channel — streams above 4K can cause significant server decoding load, affecting desktop performance and significantly increasing the AI inspection workload.

Assigned group: The group where the surveillance camera is located. Place it in the same group as the cloud desktop computers. Do not select the root node — select a leaf node. The Mini Program uses the root node for group filtering.

Other fields are optional.

In the table, replace IP, username, and password with the actual device address and login credentials. Port 554 is the default RTSP port; update if the device uses a different port.

You can use VLC media player to test the address first. Use VLC's "Open Network Stream" function to test the URL before entering it into the console. Once tested, click Test in the console to verify the result.
