I tried to add a TP-Link camera, I followed Pierre Gilles’ tutorial and went to the site to check the firmware of my camera. After adding the link with the username and password as indicated, rtsp://identifiant:mot de passe@adresse ip/stream1 I still had a connection error. After several attempts I almost gave up. I changed my username and password and then, miracle, it worked. My first username was my email address so it included an @. I suspected that this would not work. 2 solutions: - mention not to use an email address - allow using an email address ---

It applies to all URLs regardless of the protocol or Gladys. username@host So if your username is your email address that causes a problem because the hostname becomes [Gmail.com@192.168.1.1](mailto:Gmail.com@192.168.1.1) So if you want to use your email address (not much point in my view) you must replace the @ in your email address with %40 in the URL. ---

Thanks Vincent for your feedback. I changed my username to run a test and it worked. It’s mainly to inform others who might be in the same situation.
