Hey all, I just installed an Amcrest ASH26-W and am trying to add it to my motioneyeOS standalone. Does anyone know what the correct RTSP is for this? I can get it to add, but I get a gray box with rtsp://192.168.1.XX:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=0

I have their doorbell added, but is uses "&authbasic=64" added to the end of the above address. Passwords are correct (it wouldn't let me add if it wasn't). 

Thanks!

The database here:
only lists 2 possibilities:

rtsp://<ip_address>:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=01&subtype=00&authbasic=(string generated by their link)
or
rtsp://<ip_address>/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=00&authbasic=(string generated by their link)

On their page, search for 26-W, click the link, and fill in the info. I usually delete the 'user:password@' part, and put them in the correct boxed in mEOS.

Good Luck.

Possibly the data is encrypted, especially if VLC doesn't work. No solution for that, though.
I would reset your password to something simple in the camera to test, though, like "12345678" to see if it is a password issue...

BTW, this will be my last reply, as I do not do private support without prior approval.
