How to obtain a low latency video stream from the DCS-4703E?

(1/1)

VeridosCamera:
Hello,

when accessing the DCS-4703E camera with the browser there is the possibility of seeing the live video stream by means of an ActiveX control.
That stream looks great and has a very low latency.

However, when I attempt to get the stream using either HTTP or RTSP the resulting video is delayed a lot, like about 1,5 or 2 seconds.

How can we get rid of the delay? What is the URL for use with VLC for example?

Thanks and best regards,
VeridosCam

* What Hardware version is your DCS? Look at the sticker behind or under the camera.
* Link>What Firmware version is currently loaded? Found on the DCSs web page under status.
* What region are you located?
What Mfr and model is the main host router?

Probabably not a camera issue rather a process of everything logging in to the camera and getting video going. The delay isn't too long.
I recommend setting a static IP address ON the cameras outside of the main host routers default DHCP IP address pool as a troubleshooting step: 192.168.#.10 and .11  DHCP

See if any of these helps:
