How to get video from IP camera and NVR by HTTP API URL

Customer's Question:

Hi,

I've seen your are expert with NVR and IPcamera.
I would like to install a NVR system with IP camera, but I have also already a domotic system, and I would like to make them work together.
The domotic system can connect to any camera IP with protocol Http (to get the video stream) (it's also called "API")

It should look like this exemple command line :
http://admin:admin@192.168.1.108:80/cgi-bin/video.cgi?channel=1
then the video channel 1 got shown in IE, or Chrome...

Some camera accept rtsp access, but I can't use this protocol, only http
Do you know IP camera which can work like that, or NVR which accept to connect to each camera with an URL in http like above ?

I've been looking for it for 6 months without any result.

Sysvideo's Answer:

Our all IP cameras and NVR can support RTSP, the URL like rtsp://192.168.55.100:/av0_0, but there is only some special model can support RTSP via HTTP, and the price is high. The request URL is like:
http://<servername>/cgi-bin/video.cgi?userName=<username>&password=<password>&type=HTTP& cameraID=< cameraID >

and it will response: http://192.168.10.54:554/snl/live/1/1/Ux/sido=-Ux/sido=

Our IP camera can support HTTP API protocol, you can download it from our website, then you can call the video and other function through HTTP API.

Thanks.
