We have a boat similar to the Blueboat. We have trouble to connect a Dahua IP camera. We tried with several streams. Is there a possibility to get a video stream directly into Cockpit from the IP of the camera, not going thru BlueOs? ---

Not yet. Cockpit uses WebRTC to connect to the streams, so we need a man in the middle (mavlink camera manager) exposing the stream through WebRTC. ---

Hi @GuidoSte - Does your IP camera produce an H264 stream? Is it an ONVIF compatible camera? If the answer to those questions is yes, the camera stream should be possible to add via the stream URL for the camera, as a restream. This is done under BlueOS’s [Video Streams](https://blueos.cloud/docs/latest/usage/advanced/#video-streams) menu.
