SecuritySpy and Swann NHD-810 1080p IP Camera

I'm trying to link SecuritySpy to my Swann IP cameras. I have a Swann DVR and four NHD-810 cameras linked to it. I am able to access each of the cameras individually via their own IP addresses. However, I cannot find the correct method to connect. I've reviewed all of the posts on the forum that talk about Swann cameras and nothing works. To summarise, I've tried manual configuration using HTTP, RTSP over TCP, RTSP over UDP and RTSP over HTTP across ports 8000, 9000, 80, 85 and 554 (and blank) with the following Request statements ...

videostream.cgi
videostream.asf
cgi/mjpg/mjpeg.cgi
mpeg4
h264Preview_01_sub
h264Preview_01_main
Streaming/Channels/1
Streaming/Channels/101
live/h264

I’ve also ran a packet trace using Wireshark between my Mac and the camera whilst using the SwannView Link. This shows all communication between the two using TCP port 9000 but I’m not skilled enough to decode the method of connection.

Any ideas on how to move forward with this?

Jeremy.

    Hi Jeremy, I'm not sure about this camera, but it does look very much like a re-branded Hikvision, so have you tried the Hikvision profile in SecuritySpy?

    When you connect to the camera using a web browser to see its settings, what ports are lists for various services (HTTP, RTSP, ONVIF)?

    Hi. The HikVision profile doesn't work using either RTSP or JPEG feeds. The camera settings suggest port 85 (HTTP) and 9000 (RTSP) should be used. However, it only accepts connections on port 9000. It's not an ONVIF compatible camera.
