The VideoLAN Forums

I have just gotten a Asgari 1080pro surveillance camera and I want to try and see the stream in VLC. According to the manual it is very easy.
Unfortunately the manual is in Swedish.

Live Video genom VLC (Linux, Mac och PC)
1. Installera VideoLan (<- klick länken för nedladdning av VideoLan VLC Media Player).
2. Välj Media -> Open Network Stream...
3. Skriv in bildströmmens adress i följande format: rtsp://(kamerans ipadress):(kamerans rtsp-
port)/11 ex: “rtsp://192.168.1.252:554/11”
4. Kamerans IP-adress kan utläsas ur sökverktyget. Kamerans RTSP-port syns under
nätverksinställningar i kamerans webbgränssnitt. Standardport är 554. “/11” anger
upplösningen 1280x720. “/12” anger upplösningen 640x352.
115. Välj sedan “Play”. Ett inloggningsfönster dyker upp. Skriv in kamerans användarnamn och
lösenord. Standard är “admin”/”admin”.
6. Nu skall kamerans bild med vald upplösning synas io VLC.

1. Install VideoLan (<- click the link to download VideoLan VLC Media Player).
2. Select Media -> Open Network Stream ...
3. Enter the address of the image stream in the following format: rtsp: // (camera's ip address) camera's rtsp-
port) / 11 ex: "rtsp: //192.168.1.252: 554/11"
4. The camera's IP address can be read from the search appliance. The camera's RTSP port is shown below
network settings in the camera's web interface. The default port is 554. “/ 11” indicates
resolution 1280x720. “/ 12” indicates the resolution 640x352.
115. Then select “Play”. A login window pops up. Enter the camera username and
password. The default is "admin" / "admin".
6. Now the camera's image with the selected resolution should be visible in VLC.

I get all the way and enters the right ID and password but no video shows
I get i fault code VLC could not open the MRL "rtsp://192.xxx.x.xxx:88/12". check log for more details.

The log says.

-- logger module started --
main: Kör vlc med standardgränssnittet. Använd "cvlc" för att använda vlc utan gränssnitt.
main: playlist is empty
live555 error: Failed to connect with rtsp://192.xxx.x.xxx:88
satip error: Failed to setup RTSP session
-- logger module stopped --

I have replaced the IP with xxx.xx.....

URL is wrong, or there's a firewall or network issue.

The URL is right, (I think) when I use the wrong URL I don't get the box for ID and password.
I am using Ubuntu, does it have a firewall?
Network issue, I can get the Asgari surveillance program to work on Windows, on the same laptop. Can it still be the network?

Thank You for suggestions

No but it can be firewall.

I tried a command I suppose is to check the firewall and it seems to be inactive.

jorgen@jorgen-Lenovo-Z50-75:~$ sudo ufw status
Status: inaktiv

The answer from the terminal is in Swedish

could be unsupported auth scheme

could be unsupported auth scheme

I don't understand what "auth scheme" is but the manual from Asgari says it should work on VLC.
