Substream and WDR

[leenperjasknegt]

Hi

First of all great project!!

Would it be possible to set the substream parameters like resolution codec (h264/h265)?
Right now it only sets it for the mainstream (101)

Could we activate WDR via this script?

Kind regards,
Jasper

Sure, I think so. I'll look how to add that.

Thanks! 😀

@leenperjasknegt codec and WDR parameters have been added to the script.

@qb60 Thank you so much for your quick reply and code adjustments!!

I have tested the script and the WDR works by setting it to true.

For the secondary stream i get a successful response but it doesn't change the resolution, fps and codec. The main stream works just fine.
It mentions the sub stream also twice:
Model: DS-2CD2646G2-IZS, Firmware V5.5.135
Video stream: MAIN - H.265/AUDIO - 2592x1944x15
Video stream: SUB - H.265/NO AUDIO - 640x480x8
Video stream: SUB - H.265/NO AUDIO - 640x480x8
Video streams set: success

@leenperjasknegt could you please attach content of http://your_camera_ip/ISAPI/Streaming/channels/ ?

@leenperjasknegt seems you have 3 streams in this camera - 101, 102, 103. I haven't tested script on such devices.
101 is definitely "main". Which one of the rest two do you use as "substream"?

Also, attach please capabilities of all three streams:
http://your_camera_ip/ISAPI/Streaming/channels/101/capabilities
http://your_camera_ip/ISAPI/Streaming/channels/102/capabilities
http://your_camera_ip/ISAPI/Streaming/channels/103/capabilities

102 I use as a substream.
