Foscam C1 and Echo
-
I am using the gateway, and my other cameras are working fine.
With my Foscam C1 however Echo can not show the camera, I am using the noaudio and tunnel tags. The log from the gateway is copied below. Any ideas please?

It looks like you have the Monocle Gateway installed and its working because we can see the RTSP attempts to communicate with the IP camera.
However, its not getting past the first DESCRIBE request to the IP camera.

Is port 554 the correct RTSP port for this camera? My Foscam R4 uses port 88 for both HTTP and RTSP. I know it varies on some Foscam models, but worth checking.Thanks, Robert

Hi Robert
Thanks for your reply.
I have tested using VLC media player which accepts the rtsp address and port so I’m pretty sure this is all correct.
As it works in VLC, and as the gateway works fine for my other cameras, any ideas what I can try next please?
Many thanks, Chris

Try tags
@noaudio,@proxyinstead of@noaudio,@tunnel. This will internally (in the Monocle Gateway) use a different RTSP client. Perhaps it can get past this issue.Thanks, Robert

Hi, tried this and no luck, log copied below.

In this log, it looks like the “monocle-proxy” is not working. Try restarting monocle gateway and see if you notice any errors on startup. A second process named “monocle-proxy” should be automatically started in the background and listening on port 8554.
Are you running on Windows or Linux? If Windows, it could be Windows Firewall blocking access to port 8554.
Thanks, Robert

All working! Thank you!
Reboot, restart service, and magic all now working with the @proxy tag! -
Glad to hear its working now. My guess is that there is something in the RTSP client that the IP camera does not like. Switching to
@proxyuses a different RTSP client.
