Configuring RTSP Outputs
Kraken supports RTSP PUSH and PULL operations for compatibility with Video Management Systems (VMS) such as Milestone and Genetec. You can use RTSP for video-only streams (typically for surveillance applications).
Important
- With the RTSP direction set to "PUSH", Kraken will actively seek out the specified client to send the Kraken Stream media directly to the remote device with the configured RTSP path. In this case Kraken will PUSH data to
rtsp://<rtsp_output_server>:<rtsp_output_port>/<rtsp_output_path>
- With the RTSP direction set to "PULL", Kraken will make the Kraken Stream media available at the Kraken instance's configured IP address (or Hostname), the configured port (as defined in the RTSP Server Service configuration), and path. In this case, a remote client can connect to the Kraken output with
rtsp://<kraken_hostname>:<service_port>/<rtsp_output_path>
