Camera compatibility
Works with the cameras
you already have.
If your camera works with a third-party NVR, it works with Lookout. LookoutNVR records any ONVIF or RTSP camera, and imports the channels of the DVR or NVR you already own. Below is what runs at our sites today, what is new, and every brand supported through ONVIF and RTSP. If a camera gives you trouble, support is included and we work it through with you.
Proven in the field

What works, and what to set.
Hikvision Field-proven
Our most-run family. Cameras direct at a home, and whole sites recorded through Hikvision-family DVRs and NVRs at a college campus and a museum.
Includes LTS, Ezviz, HiLook and other Hikvision-family OEMs.
Running on our recorders
- At a home: DS-2CD2132-I (2), DS-2CD2343G0-I (2), DS-2CD2347G1-LU (1), IPC3042WD (1), NC304-XD (1)
- At a college campus, 71 channels: EAR504-16 recorder, EAR504-8 recorder, HEAR504-8 recorder, HEAR504-16 recorder, NC325-XD, NC326-XB, GNC224-XD/U, DS-2CD2332-I
- At a museum, 42 channels: EAR504-16 recorder
Features
| Live view and recording | Field-proven | Cameras direct, and channels through Hikvision-family DVRs and NVRs. |
|---|---|---|
| Import from the brand's DVR or NVR, analog cameras included | Beta | Reads the channel list from the recorder, analog channels included. Recording through these recorders is field-proven; the automatic import is new. |
| Camera-side AI events (person, vehicle) | Beta | ISAPI alert stream. AcuSense models tag events as human or vehicle. Needs Notify Surveillance Center on each event. |
| Doorbell button presses | Beta | Video intercom button presses over ISAPI. The least tested of the beta features. |
| Licence plates from plate cameras | Beta | Plate reads from DeepinView ANPR models over ISAPI. |
| Thermal alarms | Beta | Alarms from Hikvision thermal models over ISAPI. |
| Siren and light outputs | Beta | Alarm outputs (relays), which switch a strobe, siren or light wired to them. Named siren and light controls are not read yet. |
| PTZ control | Not yet | PTZ cameras are detected and recorded. Pan, tilt and zoom from Lookout are not built yet. |
| Two-way audio | Not yet |
Camera settings it needs
- RTSP is usually on. Main stream is /Streaming/Channels/101 and sub-stream /Streaming/Channels/102. On a DVR or NVR, channel 3 is 301 and 302.
- ONVIF is off by default on many firmwares and has its own user list under Network, Advanced, Integration Protocol. Create the ONVIF user there; a web user is not enough.
- For camera events, tick Notify Surveillance Center in the linkage of every event you want (motion, line crossing, intrusion). Without it the camera never sends the event.
- Keep the camera's clock in sync (NTP). ONVIF sign-in fails when the time is far off.
- After a few wrong passwords (reports say 5 to 7) the camera locks the user or your IP for about 30 minutes. Fix the password once, then wait.
Dahua Field-proven
Field-proven on Amcrest cameras, which run Dahua firmware. Dahua-branded cameras use the same stream paths and API.
Includes Amcrest, Lorex, EmpireTech, Imou and IC Realtime.
Running on our recorders
- At a home: Amcrest IP5M-T1179E (3), Amcrest IP5M-T1179EB-AI-V3 (2), Amcrest IP5M-T1277EB-AI (2), Amcrest IP8M-T2599E (1)
Features
| Live view and recording | Field-proven | Proven on Amcrest, which runs Dahua firmware. Dahua-branded and Lorex cameras use the same stream paths. |
|---|---|---|
| Import from the brand's DVR or NVR, analog cameras included | Beta | Reads the channel list from a Dahua-family DVR or NVR, analog channels included. |
| Camera-side AI events (person, vehicle) | Beta | Dahua event stream: SmartMotionHuman, SmartMotionVehicle, tripwire and intrusion. |
| Doorbell button presses | Beta | Amcrest AD410 and AD110 button presses. The AD110 cannot record continuously. |
| Licence plates from plate cameras | Beta | Plate reads from Dahua-family ANPR cameras. |
| Thermal alarms | Beta | Temperature and fire alarms from Dahua-family thermal models. |
| Siren and light outputs | Beta | Alarm outputs (relays), which switch a strobe, siren or light wired to them. |
| PTZ control | Not yet | PTZ cameras are detected and recorded. Pan, tilt and zoom from Lookout are not built yet. |
| Two-way audio | Not yet |
Camera settings it needs
- RTSP is on by default. Main stream is /cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=0 and sub-stream subtype=1.
- Keep at least one sub-stream in H.264.
- For camera events, set the authentication mode to Compatible, not Safety, and leave MD5 on. Otherwise the event API answers with HTTP 500.
- Amcrest documents adding a separate ONVIF user. Make one if you add the camera through ONVIF.
- Amcrest Helix (HLX-) cameras are a different platform with their own stream path (/snl/live/1/1). Add them as ONVIF or RTSP cameras.
- Repeated wrong passwords lock the account or your IP, for 5 minutes on some firmware and 30 minutes on others.
Reolink Field-proven
Field-proven on the RLC-520A and RLC-520 PoE cameras at a home.
Running on our recorders
- At a home: RLC-520A (8), RLC-520 (4)
Features
| Live view and recording | Field-proven | PoE models with RTSP switched on. |
|---|---|---|
| Import from the brand's DVR or NVR, analog cameras included | Beta | Reads the channel list from a Reolink NVR. |
| Camera-side AI events (person, vehicle) | Beta | Person, vehicle and animal from the camera's own AI, on A, Duo, TrackMix, ColorX and Elite PoE models. |
| Doorbell button presses | Beta | Video Doorbell PoE visitor button. |
| Licence plates from plate cameras | Not offered | |
| Thermal alarms | Not offered | |
| Siren and light outputs | Beta | Spotlight and siren on models that have them. |
| PTZ control | Not yet | PTZ and TrackMix cameras are recorded. Pan, tilt and zoom from Lookout are not built yet. |
| Two-way audio | Not yet |
Camera settings it needs
- On many models RTSP, ONVIF and HTTP are off by default. Switch RTSP on under Network, Advanced, Port Settings (port 554). ONVIF uses port 8000.
- Main stream is /Preview_01_main and sub-stream /Preview_01_sub. Older firmware also answers /h264Preview_01_main.
- Use an admin account, and keep the password to letters, digits and @$*~_-+=!?.,:; so it survives inside a stream address.
- Battery and 4G cameras have no RTSP of their own. They need a Reolink Home Hub or NVR in front of them.
- Port 9000 is Reolink's own app port, not RTSP. Lookout does not use it.

- Sign-in uses HTTP digest. Make a user for Lookout rather than sharing the root account.
Hanwha Vision (Wisenet) Supported

Features
| Live view and recording | Supported | ONVIF or RTSP at /profile1/media.smp. |
|---|---|---|
| Import from the brand's DVR or NVR, analog cameras included | Beta | Through the ONVIF recorder import, if the NVR has ONVIF switched on. |

Camera settings it needs
- On a camera, main stream is /media/video1 and sub-stream /media/video2.
- On a Uniview NVR, channel 3 main is /unicast/c3/s0/live and its sub-stream /unicast/c3/s1/live.
- The default user is admin. Sign-in uses HTTP digest.
UniFi Protect Supported
Cameras adopted by Protect stream through the console: switch on RTSP for each camera in Protect and Lookout records it. Older G3 cameras in standalone mode stream RTSP directly.

|---|---|---|
| Import from the brand's DVR or NVR, analog cameras included | Beta | Reads the channel list from an ONVIF DVR or NVR. |

Any RTSP camera Supported
Paste the camera's RTSP address. H.264 and H.265 record as they arrive, without re-encoding.
Features
| Live view and recording | Supported | H.264 or H.265 over RTSP, with a username and password. |

Recorders and analog cameras
Keep your DVR or NVR.
You do not have to rip anything out. Lookout records the channels of the recorder you already own, analog cameras behind a DVR included, so old coax cameras get the same search, alerts and AI as new ones.
Through the recorder, field-proven
113 channels are recorded every day through Hikvision-family recorders (EAR504-16, EAR504-8, HEAR504-8, HEAR504-16) at a college campus and a museum.
Field-proven
Import the channel list, beta
Lookout reads the channels from Hikvision, Dahua, Reolink, Hanwha Vision (Wisenet), Uniview, TP-Link VIGI, Annke and Any ONVIF camera recorders and adds them in one step, analog channels included. This is new: built to each maker's published protocol and tested against simulators.
Beta
Any recorder with RTSP
If your recorder can stream a channel over RTSP, Lookout can record it, whatever the brand. Each channel is one stream, so mind the recorder's limit on how many it serves at once.
Supported
Not supported
Cameras that only work with their own app.
These send their video to the maker's cloud, or pair only with the maker's own hub or app, so there is no local stream for a recorder to record.
