Requirements and limits

RTSP.RUN is intentionally narrow: it focuses on publicly reachable RTSP/RTSPS playback and website embed.

These requirements help decide quickly whether your stream is a fit before you spend time debugging the wrong problem.

What must be true

  • The stream must use `rtsp://` or `rtsps://`.
  • The camera or stream must be reachable from the internet.
  • Private/internal IP-only streams are not supported in the default public flow.

Works when

  • You have a valid RTSP or RTSPS URL.
  • The stream is reachable from the public internet.
  • You need live playback in a browser or a simple website embed.

Does not work when

  • The stream is available only on a private network.
  • You need recording, analytics, or a full surveillance platform.
  • You expect non-RTSP protocols to work in this flow.
