I am trying to preview RTSP stream with the "IP preview Demo"
I used all kind of types - Auto_FFMPEG, Auto_VLC and others..

With the Auto_FFMPEG I received the following error:
Unable to set URL to network FFMPEG source filter.

The stream is played properly with the VLC Player.
What am I doing wrong?

Regards, alon

FFMPEG do not support all RTSP variations. Please use VLC engine.

I am facing the same issue at this time. When using VLC engine to stream RTSP source then the preview is broken after some time(between 5-7 minutes).
Please guide me to resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance.
