An update. Last year I bought a DVR system, but couldnt find a program to combine the new DVR system with my existing IP Camera system. I know DVR system is old and getting replaced, but I got it for very cheap and is effective, got night vision too.
The supplied software sucks badly (typical Chinese cheap stuff) and remote viewing via browser only works on IE7 or something, couldnt get it to work.
I played on the local DVR hardware website and had a look at the website code, so it listed RTSP...
This is the code on the local site for the one camera, I highlighted the text in BOLD that I found.
did some googling and found ContaCam supported RTSP with VLC installed. Now able to combine a my DVR, IP and USB cams.<embed name="screen" src="#" href="javaScript:void(0)" qtsrc="rtsp://192.168.0.88:8854/live0.264?user=admin&passwd=password" width="100%" height="100%" loop="false" autoplay="true" enablejavascript="true" controller="false" plugin="quicktimeplugin" type="video/quicktime" scale="tofit" kioskmode="true" target="myself" cache="false" pluginspage="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/" title="undefined">
This it the text I added on the ContaCam settings, just modify the live0 setting as its set for each camera on the DVR and change the port 8080, 8081, etc to have a port for each camera. Also change the name for each camera, camera1, camera2, etc
