IPC ipcam trouble to connect with motion

Question

I have a IPC model LS-IPK 15 camera [from China] that I can configure with NVSIP applicaiton (available for Android or iPhone).

I can also acess to the stream with VLC : rtsp://admin:myPassword@192.168.1.111:554/

I tried want to use it with motion in order to save the motion only:

netcam_url rtsp://192.168.1.111:554/ netcam_userpass admin:myPassword

I also tired netcam_url rtsp://admin:myPassword@192.168.1.111:554/

It's not working. Any recommendations?

Thanks

I believe you will need to compile from a newer source to get the authentication to work or use one of the testing debs in the proposed patch work. The SVN and the github SackMotion have problems with the authentication on rtsp streams.
