RTSP to HTTP with VLC (Windows)

cctv-startup.bat

:: The following line is neccessary if you need an ability to restart the streams with this batch file
:: Kill all existing streams (the command actually suspends ALL the vlc processes):
taskkill /f /im "vlc.exe"

:: Run two instances of VLC. These would transcode MP4 rtsp-stream to Motion JPEG http-stream:
start vlc -vvv -Idummy rtsp://login:password@192.168.0.2/streaming/channels/2/preview --sout #transcode{vcodec=MJPG,venc=ffmpeg{strict=1},fps=10,width=640,height=360}:standard{access=http{mime=multipart/x-mixed-replace;boundary=--7b3cc56e5f51db803f790dad720ed50a},mux=mpjpeg,dst=:9911/}
start vlc -vvv -Idummy rtsp://login:password@192.168.0.3/streaming/channels/2/preview --sout #transcode{vcodec=MJPG,venc=ffmpeg{strict=1},fps=10,width=640,height=360}:standard{access=http{mime=multipart/x-mixed-replace;boundary=--7b3cc56e5f51db803f790dad720ed50a},mux=mpjpeg,dst=:9912/}

:: In order to execute VLC with `vlc` as in exapmle above, you have to add corresponding value to the PATH variable.
:: Otherwise you have to use full path e.g `"C:\Program Files\VLC\vlc.exe"`.

:: Such rtsp-stream uri as rtsp://login:password@127.0.0.1/streaming/channels/2/preview is specific for Hikvision cameras.

:: Access the http-streams like that:
:: For the first camera: http://127.0.0.1:9911 
:: For the the second camera: http://127.0.0.1:9912 
:: For external access change `127.0.0.1` to the address of the server (or PC) you are running VLC on.
:: Your server's Ports you are using for streaming (9911 and 9912 from current example) must be open for external access.

how about uses video src=localhot:9912? in html

Works like a charm!

I get a grey screen running on vlc on Fedora 33, on the browser, using hikvision. Is this a known issue?

Hi, guys!

I wanted to use the same command to generate snapshots in octoprint. but the URL is not working for snapshot, does anyone have any ideas?

as a streamer the procedure works very well, but as a snapshot I'm not having success.

@JonesTwink

Works Perfect. Can you use https protocol too? Or only http? Thanks.

Is there any way i can use rtsps stream to convert it in http streams?

Do i have to use a specific web player because I can't get it to play with the video tag

You have to use img tag.
