Hi Sadly you need to have DIRECT url to the file/streaming source. When thats done u have to make sure your browser can play or has the necessary plugin to render the stream. On my dashboard i needed to dig out the exact link for the .m3u8 file. But .mp4, avi etc is also fine. Just make sure the url is correct.

RTSP is not supported. This is documented everywhere. RTSP is a legacy protocol and unsafe to use. https://homarr.dev/docs/widgets/video/

Do you run surveilance cameras? Or maybe you have a favourite video?

Description We are using your player and it works great. We have a question about the formats and streams you support. Does you support an RTSP or an RTSPH stream? I tried doing something described...

You need an application to convert to HLS if RTSP is the only stream your camera offers. Then, you can consume HLS in Homarr which is more modern and secure. Basically no browser today has support for RTSP. Homarr isn't an exception here.
