Cannot connect to RTSP via VLC nor Synology Surveillance Station #335

Open KansaiGaijin opened 1 year ago

KansaiGaijin commented 1 year ago

I have the same/similar issue to #287 Neolink running in Docker on Linux server internal IP of 192.168.0.xxx. I can access all other software on this IP with the relevant ports, no issue. Neolink terminal states

So clearly my username/password is correct.

Synology won't authenticate the camera when adding to Surveillance station.

Using VLC to open rtsp://192.168.0.xxx:8554/Camera_Name results in the following;

main: Running vlc with the default interface. Use 'cvlc' to use vlc without interface.
main: playlist is empty
live555 error: Failed to connect with rtsp://192.168.0.xxx:8554/Camera_Name

main error: connection failed: Connection refused by peer
access_realrtsp error: cannot connect to 192.168.0.xxx:8554
-- logger module stopped --

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior. Example:

  1. Create this configuration file: 
    
bind = "192.168.0.xxx"
[[users]]
name = "Neolink"
pass = "Neolink"

[[cameras]] name = "Camera_Name" username = "user" password = "pass" address = "my_IP:9000" permitted_users = ["Neolink"]



2. Launch Neolink in Docker:
CMD `/usr/local/bin/neolink rtsp --config /etc/neolink.toml`

3.1. Navigate to add IP camera in Synology Surveilance Station and enter a user defined camera with rtsp address of:
rtsp://192.168.0.xxx:8554/Camera_Name

3.2 Open VLC on Windows computer and open a network stream using the same address as in 3.1.

**Versions**
NVR software: Synology Surveillance Station
Neolink software: Neolink 0.4.0 (Docker image)
Reolink camera model and firmware: Reolink E1 - firmware version v3.0.0.400_21062500

Have you tried with out the basic auth. So remove the users and the permitted user bit?

QuantumEntangledAndy commented 1 year ago

If you want to keep using basic auth please make sure your url is of the form:

rtsp://Username:PASSWORD@IP/CameraName
KansaiGaijin commented 1 year ago

I have attempted to connect via VLC using rtsp://Neolink:Neolink@192.168.0.xxx:8554/Camera_Name and the logs still show

Synology sat at Activating, which while is different to Authenticate still ends in Disconnected after a few seconds.

QuantumEntangledAndy commented 1 year ago

I see then we will need more debug information. Could you please and the environment variable GST_DEBUG=3 to neolink's docker and try to connect. It should produce a much larger log which id like you to post here.

Something to do with the rtsp server? I installed Gstreamer (outside of docker which I think is the correct/only way to do it) But after going back and looking through, I didn't do anything specific for a server. Is that not included in the following instruction?

Windows/Linux Install Gstreamer from the most recent MSI installer on Windows, or your package manager on Linux.

On Ubuntu/Debian machines gstreamer can be installed with:

  libgstrtspserver-1.0-0 \
  libgstreamer1.0-0 \
  libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-0 \
  gstreamer1.0-plugins-good \
  gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad
QuantumEntangledAndy commented 1 year ago

This error: Error binding to address 192.168.0.1:8554: Address not available means you have two instances of neolink running. I recommend you check that you only have one (sometimes the docker keeps running in the background). Alternativly use a different port

KansaiGaijin commented 1 year ago

I doubt 2 instances are running as I only have one in portainer and earlier today I restarted the server for unrelated reasons. That would have terminated everything.

I did adjust the port so in docker it's still :8554 and externally it's '8555'. I can see the port is open when I check in terminal ss -na | grep :8555 however when I check https://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ it's not opened? Not sure if that's an issue. I have added it my router's port forwarding too.

Lastly, I updated the bind address in the .toml file to 151 to match the IP of the server and I can see in the logs it's still looking for :8554.

Have I changed the wrong setting accidentally?

KansaiGaijin commented 1 year ago

Played with a few more settings with no further success.

Currently bound to host IP and docker is on host network. Back to port 8554.

Did ffprobe and got the following

Can I ask about your docker configuration. You say is on host. Was it on host before? If not then bind = "192.168.0.xxx" needs to match the internal docker ip (which means it is usually best to just leave it on 0.0.0.0 inside a bridged docker). Anyway leave it on host if you want to use UDP.

Your ffprobe seems to be successful so at least we have a connection at this point and neolink is working. The question is why is VLC (which I presume is on another machine) not getting any connection? This seems to be a network/firewall/port forward issue. Unless you can show me a neolink log with VLC connection being picked up.

I doubt 2 instances are running as I only have one in portainer and earlier today I restarted the server for unrelated reasons. That would have terminated everything.

I'm just reporting what the error message means. It may be that the port wasn't closed by the docker instance.

I did adjust the port so in docker it's still :8554 and externally it's '8555'. I can see the port is open when I check in terminal ss -na | grep :8555 however when I check https://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ it's not opened? Not sure if that's an issue. I have added it my router's port forwarding too.

Only need router port forwarding if your trying to access from outside your home network. In this case you might find it easier to set up a home assistant to handle the streams. You'll also need to change the port that is being exposed in docker and the one in the toml.

Lastly, I updated the bind address in the .toml file to 151 to match the IP of the server and I can see in the logs it's still looking for :8554.

Usually best to set the bind in the toml to be 0.0.0.0 because the internal docker Ip can be an unexpected value. Like this in the toml

bind = "0.0.0.0"
bind_port = 8554

Have I changed the wrong setting accidentally?

Not sure maybe you could post the whole thing again with your latest test

KansaiGaijin commented 1 year ago

VLC is being used on a different device, that is correct. Same network though.

Okay so port forwarding is irrelevant as my intention is to put the camera through my NAS which I'll have external access to.

If I bind to 0.0.0.0, does that mean it doesn't bind? Or it binds to anything?

Currently my toml reads as

bind = "192.168.0.xxx"

[[cameras]]
name = "Camera_name"
username = "user"
password = "pass"
address = "192.168.0.xxx:9000"

My compose yml looks like

- - -
version: "2"
services:
    neolink:
        image: thirtythreeforty/neolink
        container_name: neolink
        ports:

          -  /etc/neolink.toml:/etc/neolink.toml
        restart: unless-stopped

Recreating the container gives

Attempting to view the rtsp stream on VLC on the host machine outputs this. Note kitchen vs Kitchen..

QuantumEntangledAndy commented 1 year ago

0.0.0.0 binds to every interface. It is helpful for inside the docker container because of how ips inside docker are usually assigned by DHCP and can change. Are you specifying upper or lower case in the vlc? It should match case for case

QuantumEntangledAndy commented 1 year ago

Have you tried changing your name in the toml to lower case?

KansaiGaijin commented 1 year ago

I adjusted the bind and removed the capital letter (but I have been careful to be case sensitive)

and we have some new information!

QuantumEntangledAndy commented 1 year ago

That seems to be a working connection form the logs. Anything being displayed?

KansaiGaijin commented 1 year ago

No, VLC still pops up with the error thing saying unable to open MRL check the logs (which for some reason are no longer being created???)

QuantumEntangledAndy commented 1 year ago

Oh wait I missed that last line. When reading on mobile it still says missing /kitchen. Can you try the path /kitchen/subStream

KansaiGaijin commented 1 year ago

I was case sensitive and entered subStream despite the log being all lower.

QuantumEntangledAndy commented 1 year ago

Seems like something is stripping the case along the way. Can you confirm that ffplay/ffprobe works from the same machine as vlc

KansaiGaijin commented 1 year ago

SSH via PuTTy > ffprobe

QuantumEntangledAndy commented 1 year ago

Wait why ssh? I mean on the local machine that vlc is on? If you ssh into another box/virtual box it invalidates the test I wanted to achieve

KansaiGaijin commented 1 year ago

Since I made this comment

Attempting to view the rtsp stream on VLC on the host machine outputs this. Note kitchen vs Kitchen..

I've been using VLC on the host machine. So I SSH'd into it to run the probe so i can copy paste easier into this thread.

KansaiGaijin commented 1 year ago

Apologies if I misunderstood.

Jumping onto the host machine directly shows a few errors before the same output as above.

The errors are DTS discontinuity in stream 0: packet 8 with DTS 137321, packet 9 with DTS 155360 Then it repeats for packets 10 and 11, 12 and 13, etc up to 19

KansaiGaijin commented 1 year ago

Oh but ffplay works! I have visual via what looks like a terminal window

QuantumEntangledAndy commented 1 year ago

Ok just time stamp issues thats fine, they are usually just coming from dropped packets.

QuantumEntangledAndy commented 1 year ago

Yeah this seems to be something not being happy between gstreamer and VLC both of which external parts to neolink

KansaiGaijin commented 1 year ago

What would you like me attempt to troubleshoot for this? I've gotten this far from understanding as much as I can about the instructions and googling the issues but I feel more than this will require a bit more patience if I don't get it. I'm obviously not very bright with linux.

Alternatively, I don't care about not seeing it in VLC - if I can get it working in Surveillance Station that's what I'm after. Using the MRL doesn't allow it to connect.

KansaiGaijin commented 1 year ago

Also interestingly, I can't get ffplay to work via ssh. i965: Failed to submit batchbuffer: Too many open files 0B f=0/0

QuantumEntangledAndy commented 1 year ago

ffplay over ssh probably won't work without x11 forwarding to send the window it makes back to the client.

QuantumEntangledAndy commented 1 year ago

Over ssh just make sure ffprobe works

KansaiGaijin commented 1 year ago

Okay that makes sense. Yeah ssh and host both have same results for ffprobe as posted above.

QuantumEntangledAndy commented 1 year ago

Can you try this build docker pull quantumentangledandy/neolink:latest

QuantumEntangledAndy commented 1 year ago

It allows for all lower case path connections

I'm having the same issue with an Argus 2E I'm thinking reolink might have updated the firmware and changed something, I had my camera on autoupdate (such a newbie move :baby:) so I am not sure

QuantumEntangledAndy commented 1 year ago

I'm trying to get an Argus2E at the moment to test this actually. Just having trouble finding it in my country. Might have to shop from abroad

KansaiGaijin commented 1 year ago

Can I downgrade the firmware on my E1 to a version that has been tested?

QuantumEntangledAndy commented 1 year ago

I think you can actually, I don't believe they have any checks on versions or anything for the firmware what is uploaded. What is your current E1 firmware? I've got an E1 camera so I could update mine to match and test it

KansaiGaijin commented 1 year ago

Reolink camera model and firmware: Reolink E1 - firmware version v3.0.0.400_21062500
