Unifi RTSPS feed on Alexa

garethb

I have had a unifi setup working with the monocle gateway for some time. I just added a new camera to the network and logged in to Monocle to add it. I noted that now only the RTSPS protocol was available which does not work. I read that changing to RTPS and port 7447 worked around this issue. I have trued that and tested on VLC, it seems to recognise a feed but no images and now no cameras even those previously working stream on the Echo show 8 or 5 I have.

I just got this working again. The new feeds from Unifi Protect look something like this:

rtsps://192.168.1.2:7441/asdf1234?enableSrtp

To convert this to a stream URL that Monocle can use, do the following:

Change rtsps to rtsp
Change port 7441 to 7447
Remove ?enableSrtp

So for my example above:
rtsp://192.168.1.2:7447/asdf1234

In my case it was the last bullet point that I was missing and it caused the stream to hang in an Echo Show.
