Rather than doing a hand edit to /etc/hosts (like I did with my laptop to see if I can get vlc rtsp working - where I had some limited success (as vlc also has other rtsp issues)) I am tempted to try using YaST to edit ‘hostnames’ but I have not done such yet, as I am unsure as to what should be entered: Note thou, I am using Network manager so possibly that affects the ability to configure such with YaST (this is warning I get when entering Network Settings): I tried that (I think) but it does not change the /etc/hosts file. IIRC if you tick that slightly infamous checkbox in YaST > Network Settings > Hostname tab about automatically creating /etc/hosts entries, you shouldn’t have had to make those entries manually… and should be automatically modified by DHCP so that if you change networks, the entries should be modified automatically. Vlc works, but unfortunately I could only get it working by that /etc/hosts file edit (which I don’t particularly like). I don’t like that permanent edit to the /etc/hosts, as I fear it will cause me WLAN problems if I use my laptop on a different WLAN. Where “mypc” is my laptops hostname and ‘192.168.0.200’ was my home WLAN IP address. In order to stop obtaining an error with this inside " This computer has an invalid IP address: 0.0.0.0 " I ended up editing the /etc/host file, replacing:ġ27.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost ‘User’ is my camera login name, and ‘password’ is my camera password. Note in the above, ‘192.168.0.120’ is the camera IP address on my home WLAN, and ‘8554’ is the correct port. Vlc obtained an error with this text inside: " This computer has an invalid IP address: 0.0.0.0 " I would like to know if there was a superior approach to configuring LEAP-15.1 for viewing on VLC application an RTSP stream with GNU/Linux from an IP-Camera.Ĭurrently I can successfully stream RTSP from my IP-camera to VLC, but to do so, I had to edit my /etc/hosts file, but I do not know if that was the best / most-elegant solution.īefore I edited my /etc/hosts file, when ever I streamed with (using this bash shell command) :
