How to stream a Hanwha Vision camera on a website
Hanwha Vision, previously known as Hanwha Techwin and Samsung Techwin, produces professional IP cameras. Streams are organized by profiles and can be connected to rtsp.me.
Validate RTSP URLPrepare data
Find the IP, RTSP port, and video profile number. Create a dedicated view-only user with a strong unique password. Do not use the camera administrator account.
Hanwha Vision RTSP URLs
Profile 1
Profile 2
The number after profile corresponds to a profile configured in the camera. Profile 1 is not always the primary stream on every model. Verify resolution, codec, and bitrate in the web interface or retrieve the URI via ONVIF.
Example and external access
Reserve the local IP and forward an external TCP port to the camera RTSP port, typically 554.
Use the port mapping guide. Under CGNAT, choose an alternative connection method.
Connection through software agent
If the site has no public IP address or opening an RTSP port on the router is not possible, install the rtsp.me software agent on a computer or mini PC in the same local network as the camera.
The agent receives the local Hanwha Vision RTSP stream and sends it to rtsp.me over an outbound connection. In this case, port mapping and an internet-exposed RTSP port are not required.
Windows, Linux, and ARM are supported. Setup and configuration are described in "IP camera streaming agent without static IP".
Publish the stream
- Insert your own credentials and profile number.
- Validate the URL on rtsp.me.
- Add the camera and get player code.
- Embed it on your website.
