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 pa*s 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
