Pre-Requisites

Windows 10/11 Eval Virtual Machine An MP4 file to test the stream

Required Software

ffmpeg

Install this to the default directory:

C:\ffmpeg\bin\ffmpeg.exe

IPCameraEmulatorSTD.exe

This simple tool allows us to run a RTSP stream on a specified port (Default: 554) with no authentication. I Installed this to the users desktop

C:\Users\cctv\Desktop\CamEmu

MediaMTX

This is a highly customisable tool that allows us to set up a server and use fmmpeg to stream an MP4 file via RTSP. This tool is used as it allows another stream on another port (We will use: 8554) with either Basic or Digest authentication types, along with allowing us to use custom credentials.

Again, this went on the desktop

C:\Users\cctv\Desktop\MediaMTX

Wireshark

In this instance we will only be using the rstp filter to see all of the packets if required. Install using the default settings.

Install and set up MediaMTX Yaml File 64: user: service 66: pass: service 167: rtspAddress: :8554 189: rtspAuthMethods: [digest]

MP4 for streaming PS1 script for easy running Install Wireshark for Packet analysis
