I wanted to add to the discussion, as there is really no information how to configure the GrandStream GXV3504.
In my case, I am test SS to do all the capturing, motion detection, et al. I still wish to send a secondary stream to my automation system, which has integrated cameras, thus having a single point of access for the automation interface is my personal requirement.
The only way I could get SS to view the cameras was as follows: **** On the GrandStream GXV3504: - Option 1 (Easy, Novice, First Time User): - Video & Audio L 4 * D1 (Enable via Check Box) Choose any H264 Configuration Choose H264 + (Second stream if you happen to need that for another app)
- Option 2 (Expert Level): - Video & Audio L 4 * D1 (DO NOT Enable via Check Box) L Channel 1 (Use same for all channels, or modify as needed for camera/usage/needs) - Channel 1 Video Settings - Primary Stream Settings - H264, - Resolution, Bitrate, Fram Rate, CBR/VBR, I Frame Rate = As desired as you should know what you are doing. - Secondary Stream - Choose what is needed, as an expert will understand why they want a secondary stream.
**** On SS: - Settings -> Video device settings - Create a Video device for each of the 4 streams - Each Device includes the same IP address of the GrandStream Device - HTTP: 80, RTSP: 554, Format: H.264 - Input Number = 1,2,3,4 (this is for the channel you wish to view) After each device has been created, you can simply change the Name of the Device so you know each stream. - Settings -> Camera settings - Camera Name: **Edit this so you know each stream, eg: Input 1, Door, Patio, etc.*** Then the generic name of ###.###.#.# ip address is changed so you know the actual Video Stream.

In my case, I am test SS to do all the capturing, motion detection, et al. I still wish to send a secondary stream to my automation system, which has integrated cameras, thus having a single point of access for the automation interface is my personal requirement.
The only way I could get SS to view the cameras was as follows:
**** On the GrandStream GXV3504:
- Option 1 (Easy, Novice, First Time User):
- Video & Audio
L 4 * D1 (Enable via Check Box)
Choose any H264 Configuration
Choose H264 + (Second stream if you happen to need that for another app)
- Option 2 (Expert Level):
- Video & Audio
L 4 * D1 (DO NOT Enable via Check Box)
L Channel 1 (Use same for all channels, or modify as needed for camera/usage/needs)
- Channel 1 Video Settings
- Primary Stream Settings
- H264,
- Resolution, Bitrate, Fram Rate, CBR/VBR, I Frame Rate = As desired as you should know what you are doing.
- Secondary Stream
- Choose what is needed, as an expert will understand why they want a secondary stream.
**** On SS:
- Settings -> Video device settings
- Create a Video device for each of the 4 streams
- Each Device includes the same IP address of the GrandStream Device
- HTTP: 80, RTSP: 554, Format: H.264
- Input Number = 1,2,3,4 (this is for the channel you wish to view)
After each device has been created, you can simply change the Name of the Device so you know each stream.
- Settings -> Camera settings
- Camera Name: **Edit this so you know each stream, eg: Input 1, Door, Patio, etc.***
Then the generic name of ###.###.#.# ip address is changed so you know the actual Video Stream.
Hope this helps.
