Its a little tricky to configure these settings in a LOREX and my camera’s are on my LAN not plugged into the DVR directly. Once I figured this out, I set every non LOREX camera (D-Link crap internal cameras like 2630 and the like) to the same quality settings. I haven’t fiddled with audio settings for the one camera I have with audio on. Clicking on the card launches a stream as well. [opt for opt in _in_options.split()įor LOREX, yesterday when I set these up I had to make sure the stream I used was using CBR, as VBR didnt.

I can’t figure out how to even enable one camera stream as the component won’t accept the url format required to stream Lorex cameras. So after a bit of fiddling about with that info and the info in this thread I have put camera: !include camera.yaml in my main config and my camera.yaml looks like this - platform: ffmpeg

In there you should have RTSP enabled, Verify is enabled for me, port 554. In the Lorex Client 13 on desktop (and I think on the DVR itself - it’s in the attic I’m not going up there now) you go to the below path

I log in to those with Device ID/IP, port 9000 (disregard this for HA), user (admin) and pw. It’s a LHA2108LC and I can use the Lorex Client 13 for viewing my cameras on desktop and the Lorex Cirrus app on iOS.

Absolute n00b here but I’ve got kinda familiar with the Lorex system and noticed some differences with the setup here and what should be used for some systems.
