 Though this is called the RTSP plugin, it is capable of receiving any of the streaming methods that can be indicated with the protocol type in the URL field. For example HTTP streaming would work just fine, as well as tcp: or udp: or any of the other connection methods that would be supported by the ffmpeg application.

+=====Amcrest Camera RTSP Links:=====
+This plugin supports all currently known Amcrest cameras.
+Note that when using the Amcrest Camera Control it is necessary to select “Digest” authentication mode and to re-enter the user and password even if they were included in the RTSP link in the field above. For more info on the Camera Control available for Amcrest Cameras and others see the [[video:api:index|Camera Control Plugin]] article.
+The “Smart Home” cameras support only a subset of the API used in the Amcrest Camera Control and have no built in web interface for configuration. All config must be done through their mobile apps or via the [[https://support.amcrest.com/hc/en-us/articles/360004527171-Amcrest-IP-Config-Tool-Download|Amcrest IP Config Application]] Which is available for both windows and Mac desktops. It is very useful for finding the cameras on your local network and giving them static IP addresses and the other useful things.

-or pass True to turn it back on. You can only issue the command while the interface is enabled and you must disable and re-enable the interface for the changes to take effect. The setting is remembered for the interface so it is not necessary to issue the command at each startup or anything like that.
