RLC-511 - Terrible video quality over RTSP on Raspberry PI

rocketdylon50

Hi Everyone,

New to posting, but thought it would be worth a try. I've purchased a good number of REO link systems for clients and myself over the past year but I'm growing more and more frustrated with the systems every time I need to change a setting that isn't there or can't get common things like RTSP to work.

I am simply trying to steam the video from one of my RLC-511's to a screen through a Pi. It is going to a monitor hanging on a wall that isn't close to a computer. I have done this with other brands no problem.

I have no problem streaming it from a PC with VLC, but with a Pi it is just a garbled mess with different colored pixels all over the screen. The pixels are moving with cars that pass by so it is trying to work, but isn't

Has anyone been able to stream a camera from a Pi?

I am not using POE so my only thought is that it could be a power issue.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!
Dylon
