RTSP compatibility guide

EZVIZ RTSP support

EZVIZ RTSP and ONVIF support depends on the exact model and firmware. The official C6N/TY1/TY2 webcam instructions provide a specific RTSP example; ONVIF support uses a separate model and firmware list.

Official RTSP example: C6N / TY1 / TY2
rtsp://admin:LOCAL_PASSWORD@CAMERA_IP:554/ch1/main

Use the local-connectivity password currently configured for the device. The label verification code is not always the current password after encryption-password changes. Do not assume every EZVIZ camera has a Hikvision web menu.

Use the official path for the named cameras

The EZVIZ webcam article for C6N, TY1 and TY2 uses admin as the username, the device verification code as the password in its original setup example, port 554 and the path /ch1/main. Both the camera and receiving device are placed on the same local network. This provides a concrete starting point for those named products, not a range-wide endpoint guarantee.

The example above substitutes LOCAL_PASSWORD to account for the current EZVIZ password rules. Do not change the path to a Hikvision Streaming/Channels or h264/av_stream pattern simply because the brands share historical technology. Use another path only when the exact model official documentation supplies it.

Prepare the camera and copy the correct details

  1. Record the full EZVIZ model code, region and installed firmware from the app or device label.
  2. Check the model-specific RTSP instructions. For ONVIF, match the full model code and minimum firmware in the separate official support list.
  3. Confirm the device IP on your local network and identify the currently configured local-connectivity password; do not substitute your EZVIZ cloud login.
  4. For the documented C6N/TY1/TY2 setup, test the official /ch1/main address locally. For another model, obtain its supported endpoint or ONVIF instructions before trying a viewer.

Verification code versus the current local password

The webcam article describes the six-uppercase-letter verification code printed on the device label. The newer local-connectivity FAQ explains that changing the encryption password synchronizes the password used by supported local features, including RTSP and ONVIF. The label code can therefore be outdated for authentication.

When video authentication fails, check whether the encryption or local-connectivity password was changed before resetting the camera. Use only authorized device credentials. Redact the password from copied URLs, screenshots and support logs; a cloud account password is not a replacement for an unknown camera password.

ONVIF is a model and firmware checklist

The official ONVIF article lists specific full model codes and minimum builds. For example, its list includes CS-C6N-D0-8B4WF with V5.3.2 build 231228. A short family name such as C6N or H6c is not enough to establish that every resolution, region or revision supports ONVIF.

Follow the supported configuration instructions for your device. This guide does not prescribe a universal Configuration > Network > Advanced Settings > Integration Protocol web interface, because the reviewed EZVIZ sources do not establish that menu across the range. RTSP playback and ONVIF discovery should be tested separately.

Doorphone exclusions and playback troubleshooting

The linked EZVIZ smart video doorphone FAQ says that category does not support RTSP or ONVIF. Do not turn an EZVIZ camera example into a doorphone setup promise. For other models, check their current product and support pages instead of assuming that every powered network device exports a stream.

A timeout suggests checking the address, supported service and permitted LAN route. An authentication error suggests checking the current local password. A connected stream without a picture calls for checking the documented media settings and decoder support. Do not expose port 554 publicly while troubleshooting.

Documentation scope and review date

Reviewed on 2026-10-18 against the linked EZVIZ RTSP setup, local-password, ONVIF and doorphone articles. The /ch1/main example is scoped to the named webcam instructions; the ONVIF list must be matched independently. This guide does not claim physical testing, universal ONVIF support or a confirmed substream URL for every EZVIZ model.

Frequently Asked Questions

What official EZVIZ RTSP address should I start with?
For the named C6N/TY1/TY2 webcam instructions, EZVIZ documents admin, port 554 and /ch1/main. Use the camera current local password and actual IP address.
Is the label verification code always the password?
No. The local-connectivity FAQ says a changed encryption password synchronizes to supported local features. Check the current password rather than assuming the original label code still works.
Does every C6N or H6c support ONVIF?
Do not infer that from the family name. Match the full model code and required firmware build in the official ONVIF list.
Should I enable Integration Protocol in a Hikvision-style menu?
Only if the exact EZVIZ model official instructions provide that menu. The reviewed sources do not establish it as a universal EZVIZ setup step.
