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.
HTTP (unofficial, needs more analysis)
See this resource but I did not test it. In this way we should be able to unlock a 2K video stream.
