Frequently asked questions
How do I add an IP camera to an NVR?
Use ONVIF auto-discovery in your NVR software, or add manually with the camera's IP, RTSP URL, and credentials. For Synology Surveillance Station, Blue Iris, and Milestone, ONVIF works with most IP cameras. Verify ONVIF is enabled on the camera first.
What is the difference between ONVIF and RTSP for NVR integration?
RTSP provides video streaming only. ONVIF provides video, audio, PTZ control, motion events, and configuration through a single standardized interface. ONVIF is preferred for full NVR integration; RTSP works for basic video when ONVIF is unavailable.
