Not familiar with that camera, but typically video is on stream 0:0 and audio is on stream 0:1. You could run ffprobe to get a list of available streams from your camera, and set the ones that look correct for your setup.
There are a few Amcrest configurations in the Tested Configurations database, maybe try some of those?
I checked those tested configs, none mention the stream options. I can get the camera connected - but the main stream 0, is H265, stream 1 is vga, and stream 2 is 1920x1080 h264. that's what im trying to figure out how to set it in the settings.
Does anything in iSpyConnect help? I see a few that have a channel number on the URL, is that what you’re looking for?
Hmm thats a good point, Im not pointing the URL at my camera, I was pointing it at my SS RTSP URL, but thats only getting 1 stream so it doesn't care.. let me circle back and see if I can get the cameras RTSP url, and pull it from there.
ok I think I straightened it out. I got the Amcrest RTSP URL - works in VLC but its kinda buggy in FFMpeg - takes about 20 seconds to load the stream running on a Synology Docker station, and once it does it loads the logs with these errors:

Im using the H264 decoder.
Yea, FFmpeg does not look happy there, and it's reporting 236 frames of the 283 it received were duplicates, which is really bad. It is also reporting corrupt frames... you could try adding -fflags +discardcorrupt
to the beginning of your source
config option to see if that helps any.
