Uniview Camera RTSP URL Guide & Tester
Test any Uniview IP camera stream instantly. Uniview cameras use RTSP for live streaming — paste your URL below to verify reachability, detect codec, and check resolution without installing any software.
Change your default credentials — this is a security requirement
IP cameras ship with factory default credentials for initial setup only. Leaving default credentials active on any network-connected device is a serious security risk — attackers actively scan for and exploit cameras with unchanged defaults.
- Log in to the camera web interface using the initial setup credentials (check the sticker on the camera body or the quick-start guide).
- Navigate to Configuration → User Management (menu names vary by firmware version).
- Set a strong, unique password — at least 12 characters, mixing letters, numbers, and symbols. Do not reuse passwords across devices.
- Save and log back in with the new credentials to confirm the change took effect.
- Update your RTSP URL with the new credentials, then use CamCheck below to verify the stream is still accessible.
Uniview RTSP URL pattern
The RTSP URL pattern for Uniview cameras:
rtsp://<user>:<pass>@<ip>:554/unicast/c1/s0/live
Replace <user>, <pass>, and <ip>
with your camera's credentials and IP address. Never leave default credentials
unchanged — update them and use CamCheck below to verify the stream.
Default ports
- HTTP: 80
- HTTPS: 443
- ONVIF: 80
- RTSP: 554
ONVIF path
Uniview cameras support ONVIF at /onvif/device_service. Use an ONVIF
client (e.g. ONVIF Device Manager) to discover and configure the camera.

Frequently asked questions
What is the default Uniview camera password?
Uniview cameras ship with factory default credentials that must be changed on first setup. Do not use default credentials on any network-connected device — change your password in the camera web interface immediately. See the security guidance above for step-by-step instructions.
How do I reset a Uniview camera password?
To reset a forgotten Uniview password, locate the physical reset button on the camera (usually a small pinhole). Hold for 10-15 seconds to factory reset. After reset, set a new strong password immediately — do not leave the camera at factory defaults.
