SOLVED: rtsp netcam not working

Question

Hi to all !

I have read this post http://www.lavrsen.dk/foswiki/bin/view/Motion/FeatureRequest2009x06x23x045436 and I have tried to download the motion-Git-8619d7c17ce112e7196975905c6e840f345141ba.

After more tentative to compiling the 3.2.12 trunk version without success, I have downloaded it and compiled with ffmpeg 2.6 version with mysql support (I have also compiled mysql).

After some small problems, all compiling fine.

But, I cannot connect my rtsp camera (with vlc all working fine).

Firstly, when I start motion, I get these messages:

(see verbatim area)

In the log I read:

netcam_start: Network Camera thread starting... for url (rtsp://10.0.x.x)

rtsp_connect: unable to open input(rtsp://pippo:password@10.0.x.x:554): -1482175736 - Server returned 4XX Client Error, but not one of 40{0,1,3,4}.

Obviously, I have applied the netcam_rtsp modifications suggested by RzTen1 in the post and put also the in thread1.conf the parameter netcam_userpass pippo:password

My system is ubuntu sever 14.04 with kernel 3.13.0-48-generic 32bit.

There are some people that can hel me ?

Thank in advance,

Emilio

Update

The startup messages are relative to new syntax of .conf file. Re arranging the motion.conf and threadxx.conf with new standard .conf syntax solved this problem.

I have tried the Mr-Dave version (https://github.com/Mr-Dave/motion actualy Motion Unofficial-Git-a5b5f13) and the rtsp problem is the same (also if the netcam_rtsp.c code is more differen from the other version).

With Mr-Dave version, I get the same error but without the number:

netcam_rtsp_open_context: unable to open input(rtsp://pippo:password@10.0.89.9:554): Server returned 4XX Client Error, but not one of 40{0,1,3,4}

Answer

I have SOLVED download https://github.com/tosiara/motion/tree/unstable (maybe also mr-dev working but I have not tried again) and changing in Threadxx.conf the parameter relative RTSP TCP protocol (default enabled) on OFF.

All working fine
