# How to connect to a NVR
|
|
|
|
Tested on: Tapo C210
|
|
|
|
## Introduction
|
|
|
|
### Capabilities
|
|
This camera is capable of transmitting its stream on the RTSP protocol on two channels: one at resolution 640x360 and another one at resolution 1920x1080 (despite this model
|
|
has a 2K lens, the 2K stream is accessible through the official app only).
|
|
It supports the `ONVIF` standard.
|
|
|
|
It is also possible to access the video over HTTP, but it's undocumented, unofficial and needs to be improved.
|
|
|
|
### Prerequisites
|
|
If you want to use the RTSP protocol (used also by the ONVIF), you need to create RTSP credentials. Using the official app we have to go to `Settings -> Advanced Settings -> Camera account`. We have to choose a `username` and a `password`
|
|
|
|
## Connection
|
|
|
|
### Simple RTSP stream:
|
|
High quality stream: `rtsp://username:password@IP_Address:554/stream1`
|
|
|
|
Low quality stream: `rtsp://username:password@IP_Address:554/stream2`
|
|
|
|
### ONVIF
|
|
`http://IP_Address:2020/onvif/device_service` and specify `username` and `password` when asked.
|
|
|
|
Using ONVIF will allow the NVR to properly configure the PTZ controls, allowing the camera to pan and tilt.
|
|
|
|
### HTTP (unofficial, needs more analysis)
|
|
See [this resource](https://drmnsamoliu.github.io/video.html) but I did not test it. In this way we should be able to unlock a 2K video stream.
