      OK - Ive had this working in the past, with the exact same setup, then one day it stopped…
      My service is working:

      And then this is the error i get after asking alexa to show my camera:

ATTENTION -> Next you should see log statements showing your camera
establishing an inbound connection to this gateway instance via:
-> DNS URL: rtsp://8fc4dca0-d3fc-41b9-a064-6106f5767dba.mproxy.io:443/STREAM:3c0979ac-29ab-421b-b713-c5c30e95be38
-> This DNS host address should resolve to: 192.168.10.3:443 on your network.

NOTE: If you don't receive any inbound connection log statements,
please see: https://monoclecam.com/monocle-gateway-troubleshooting

        My guess is an update to the Alexa devices or perhaps the camera firmware caused some incompatibility issue.
        As far as the log data goes it all looks like the camera is successfully connecting and negotiating the RTSP layer with your Monocle Gateway instance. Thus it does not appear to be any setup, install or network related issue.

        The following log lines …

        2022-08-26T05:14:14.899Z [INFO] [192.168.20.3:49204 <JJOJJ8yZV>] RTSP CLIENT PLAYING MEDIA STREAM: Front Door (STREAM:3c0979ac-29ab-421b-b713-c5c30e95be38)
2022-08-26T05:14:15.094Z [INFO] [192.168.20.3:49204 <JJOJJ8yZV>] RTSP CLIENT SOCKET CLOSED

        … suggest that the Alexa device does start attempting the play the stream and then something in the stream data is causing Alexa to abort or fail to play.

        This is a shot in the dark, but try the following:

        1.) add the @noaudio tag and re-test the stream.
        2.) add the @fake-fmtp tag and re-test the stream.
        3.) replace @tunnel tag with @proxy and re-test the stream.

        If all this fails, see if there are other RTPS stream resolutions provided by the camera you can try.

          Ok, so for my dahua cam, i needed to use @fake-fmtp, @tunnel in order for it to work

          For my Hikvision cude cam, nothing works, except if add @fake-fmtp it loads but i get a bright green scree. Tested on a Show 5 & 8

          Need to keep trying for the hikvision

            Is the Hikvision set to the H.264 codec? Some newer cameras now ship using H.265 by default and Alexa devices do not yet support H.265.

            I forgot one other tag combination you can try.

            Try @proxy-tcp instead of @tunnel. Also add @noaudio … if I recall correctly I think several Hikvision cameras had audio streaming issues with Alexa, at least some of the older ones.

            Thanks, Robert

              Thanks, i will give those a try!

              AFAIK, the hikvision is set to H.256, but ill double check.
              Nothing has changed settings wise in the hikvision, so definitely something has changed on amazons end
