RTSP URLs for Hikvision, Reolink, Dahua and Tapo

The RTSP stream paths SecureEyes uses for Hikvision, Reolink, Dahua, Amcrest, Lorex, Tapo, Axis and Uniview cameras, with the ports we found on each.

The short answer

SecureEyes builds these addresses itself once it knows the brand, so you rarely type one. They are here for checking a camera, or for typing paths into Enter Manually.

A full address is the camera's IP address, the RTSP port (554 unless the camera uses another), then the path. For example: rtsp://192.168.1.64:554/Streaming/Channels/101

Second lenses

A Reolink TrackMix serves its second lens at /Preview_02_main and /Preview_02_sub. A dual-lens Dahua uses channel=2 in the same paths. SecureEyes asks for the second lens by itself.

Type paths yourself

Open the camera's settings, then Connection & Access > Stream profile > Enter Manually. See Choose a camera's stream, or set its stream paths.

Keep the password out of shared addresses

On a tile whose camera refused the stream, Copy Details hides the password in the stream address. Do not paste a password into an email or a forum post.
