RTSP-Streaming uses unc-path instead of IP

Post by ITSpecialist » Tue Jun 16, 2015 12:59 pm

Hi there...

When I start a stream the streaming-server uses the unc-path and gives it to VLC. This is no problem as long as I'm in my own network. But when I connect via vpn to my network at home, the stream doesn't work because it uses the unc-path. Streaming should be no problem as I'm on a very fast VDSL-stream. How can I make ARGUS-TV use the IP (rtsp:\\XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX\stream) instead of unc (rtsp:\\uncname\stream)?

thanks, ITSpecialist

I may be wrong about this, but I think you should check this file:

Code: Select all

C:\Program Files (x86)\ARGUS TV\Streaming Server\ArgusTV.StreamingServer.exe.config
Specifically, the following optional setting:

Code: Select all

        <!-- Leave the host URL empty to automatically use the machine's network name -->
        <setting name="RtspHostUrl" serializeAs="String">
          <value></value>
        </setting>

Wow! That's it! I changed the value from "empty" to the appropriate IP and it works!

Thanks
