NOTE:

Quick Time player only supports playback of H.264 stream, and not the MJPEG stream. In terms of audio codec, Quick Time only supports AAC. Since this camera supports G.711 codec, audio is not available on Quick Time.

VLC player supports H.264/MPEG-4/

MJPEG, and all audio codecs supported by

VIVOTEK’s cameras.

The RTSP players will show the original circular-shape image. You can access the Regional views via the ST7501 or VAST software. See page 88 for an example.
