Hi,
We were just exploring if Wowza streaming engine could connect to the RING doorbell cameras? if YES then what would be required to connect to them?
is it similar to connecting to an IP camera?

Hello Alok,
Depending on the streaming protocol by the Ring doorbell supported you can connect the cameras with Wowza Streaming Engine. The protocols supported by Wowza Streaming Engine are mentioned here: [https://www.wowza.com/docs/wowza-streaming-engine-technical-specifications#live-streaming-compatible-encoding-inputs1](https://www.wowza.com/docs/wowza-streaming-engine-technical-specifications#live-streaming-compatible-encoding-inputs1)
If the Ring Doorbell Camera supports RTSP protocol, it is similar to connecting an IP camera.
If you face any difficulties, [submit a support ticket](https://www.wowza.com/support/open-ticket) and we’ll guide you to connect the RING doorbell cameras with Wowza Streaming Engine.
