💡

Changed a port?

You can change the ONVIF and RTSP ports in the program. If you do, use the new numbers on the NVR and in the firewall.

Play rtsp://PC-IP:554/screenlive in VLC from another computer on the network. If it plays, the ports are open.

Do I need to open ports on the router?

No, not for a local NVR. Only the PC firewall matters on the local network.

Is 3702 required?

Only for automatic discovery. You can always add the camera by IP without it.
