Issue while verifying the camera settings: invalid Content-Base

[CaptainCommuter]

In the latest version of the agent when verifying the connection, the error "Something went wrong while verifying the camera settings: invalid Content-Base" occurs. This works OK with the November docker release and is running on Raspberry Pi and a S3VC IP camera using H264

Thanks for reporting @CaptainCommuter, we are using a new RTSP library. Which camera are you using? Can you an url ?

[cedricve]

can you share the RTSP url you are using? Are there other RTSP urls you can test out?

[CaptainCommuter]

Thanks for responding. The camera is a generic one from SV3C (www.sv3c.com) A series and the RTSP urls are: rtsp://ipcam01/stream0 for the main stream and rtsp://ipcam01/stream1 for the sub-stream. None work and unfortunately that's all there is.

The error is thrown here: https://github.com/bluenviron/gortsplib/blob/main/client.go#L73-L88 I expect the RTSP url is not able to be parsed with our new library. Can you share the full log?

if len(cb) != 1 {
    return nil, fmt.Errorf("invalid Content-Base: '%v'", cb)
}

ret, err := base.ParseURL(cb[0])
if err != nil {
    return nil, fmt.Errorf("invalid Content-Base: '%v'", cb)
}

I'm wondering if you use any special characters in the password? The RTSP url should work with following format (regex). https://github.com/bluenviron/gortsplib/blob/main/pkg/base/url.go#L18-L45

[CaptainCommuter]

OK your comment about the password was along the right lines. In fact, there was no authentication (so no user or password) in the RTSP URL. Once I set that up it now works.

Ok that's great news, but it should work without password as well (not advised though).
