Using Tapo C200 with third party software "Snapshot Failed"
Hi,
I'm attempting to use third party software to stream the Tapo C200 video stream, I have disabled Tapo care, and taken out the MicroSD card from the C200.
I followed this guide: https://www.tp-link.com/uk/support/faq/2680/
In VLC I have tried the following addresses and all of them have failed:
rtsp://username:password@192.168.50.191:554/stream1
rtsp://username:password@192.168.50.191:554/video.h264
rtsp://username:password@192.168.50.191:554/11
rtsp://username:password@192.168.50.191:554/stream11
rtsp://192.168.50.191/stream/1
rtsp://192.168.50.191:554/stream1
I have tried Homebridge and that failed with error message “Snapshot error”
I have tried Scrypted and that failed with error message “Snapshot Failed”.
Nothing seems to work, it doesn't appear to work with third party software or I am doing something wrong?
Thank you for the reply.
2. Is this the first time you have tried to stream the camera via the RTSP protocol? If not, did the RTSP stream work fine?
This was the first time I've tried the RTSP protocol.
3. Please describe your network diagram, such as the internet cable--wireless router)))(((Tapo camera, phones, ONVIF devices, etc.
Please confirm if the ONVIF device is in the same network as the Tapo Cam, and whether they are connected to the same router's Wi-Fi.
Router: ASUS RT-AX88U WRT-Merlin which connects via Ethernet to a 1Gbps fibre connection.
Mac mini (Homebridge/Scrypted) Sonoma 14.2.1 Ethernet connection.
Tapo C200 WiFi 2.4Ghz
iPhone 14 iOS 17.2.1 WiFi 5Ghz (Tapo App)
I don’t have any other cameras, I have some lights connected via Philips hue Bridge (Ethernet). I also have a Raspberry Pi 4 (Ethernet), and Ubuntu Computer (Ethernet), and a Windows 11 PC (Ethernet).
4. Can I have a picture of the error message showing on the Homebridge/Scrypted when setting up the RTSP stream?

Scrypted:
After putting my password in again (I’m using the stream password, not the app password, and the password is just alphanumeric only).
