ACTi Video Server - Getting connected

Question

I have recently purchased two single channel video servers http://www.acti.com/CatalogV5/Product_Information.asp?PART_NO=ACD-2100 to provide remote analogue cameras. I have played for hours trying to get motion to use them as a source without success. I am still investigation and looking at using FFmpeg directly to do some conversion if necessary. I have managed to stream to VLC using RTSP, the unit supports mjpeg and mpeg4.

Any advice or thoughts please?
