Dears,

When I want to redirect my IPCam rtsp streaming to WOWZA, it’s required Username/Password.

For example, my Username/Password is [abc@cloud.com]/[12345678]. So, I use the following URL in WOWZA

=\> rtsp://abc@cloud.com/12345678@192.168.150.100/CH1

But, it can’t work. I can play it by VLC.

Could you help me ? Many Thanks.

Hello,

I’m not sure if this is a question for the “Find a Consultant” forums, maybe it would fit better in [this one](http://community.wowza.com/c/-/8). But anyway; the separator between username and password should be a colon. There may also be a problem with the @ sign in the username, you may try to replace that with %40, but I’d fix the separator first and see if it works.

I assume you are familiar with putting this URL into a Stream file, then starting the Stream file to connect to the camera. Otherwise, please read [this article](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-re-stream-video-from-an-ip-camera-rtsp-rtp-re-streaming%28RTSP-RTP-re-streaming%29).
