Frequently asked questions
Can I play an RTSP stream directly in a web browser?
Browsers do not support RTSP natively. To view an RTSP stream in a browser, you need to convert it to HLS or WebRTC. The StreamProbe RTSP-to-HLS bridge handles this conversion. Enter your RTSP URL and get an HLS stream playable in any browser.
What is the difference between RTSP and HLS?
RTSP (Real Time Streaming Protocol) is a low-latency streaming protocol used by IP cameras and NVRs. HLS (HTTP Live Streaming) is browser-compatible but adds latency (6-30 seconds). Use RTSP for NVR recording and live monitoring; convert to HLS for web embedding.
