These seem to work. The biggest problem is people trying to use 'network camera' instead of 'ffmpeg' source type. Both have rtsp but only ffmpeg works here (because of h.264?) see [[1]]

The DS-2CD2732F-I and DS-2CD2032-I are tested

The DS-2CD2532F-IWS was tested to work reliably only with Libvlc as source type.

The DS-2CD2012-I works too.

Videostream:

General Tab

Source Type : Ffmpeg / Libvlc

Source Tab

Source Path : rtsp://<username>:<password>@<ip_address>:<port>/Streaming/Channels/1?tcp

(example: rtsp://admin:12345@mycamera.mydomain.com//Streaming/Channels/1)

Target Colorspace : 24 bit colour

Capture Width (pixels) : 1280 (set these to match camera config)

Capture Height (pixels) : 720

I also had to set max FPS slightly higher than set in camera, or i lost the lower half of the frame. (Camera seems to send 10.6fps when 10 is selected)

The following URL gives another Source path that was far more stable on Zoneminder 1.25: http://onlinetechadvice.blogspot.com/2014/04/hikvision-ds-2cd2032-i-working-in.html#comment-form

The Source path that worked for me is: rtsp://username:password@XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=0?tcp Of course, replace username and password and port with your specific installation information.
