RTSP (Real Time Streaming Protocol): rtsp://UserName:Password@IPAddress:554/1 (11, 21, 31, 41, etc. all work too, plus 2, 22, 32, etc. provides a lower resolution stream)

HTTP: Not available (tried the videostream.cgi? URL, but it ~~didn't work~~)

HTTP: Not available (tried variations for other cameras, such as the videostream.cgi? URL, but nothing worked, which matched the documentation, just thought it was worth a try)

===Vonnic C907IP (AKA WanLink , Foscam, ~~etc. Brands~~ too) (bought 1.2012)===

===Vonnic C907IP (AKA WanLink NC541W, Foscam FI8908W, Zmodo CM-I11123BK, EasyN FS-613A-M136, Agasio 502W, and other brands too) (bought 1.2012)===

RTSP (Real Time Streaming Protocol): Not supported

I get the impression the same company that was sourced as the manufacturer for the Vonnic and Boavision cameras is the same company given the similar file structure available via HTTP.

I get the impression the same company that was sourced as the manufacturer for the Vonnic, Agasio, and Boavision cameras is the same company given the similar file structure available via HTTP, plus the fact that from the outside many of their cameras are the same.

This means I can install iSpy on one of my servers and have an additional surveillance system that can facilitate using all of my cameras. The lesson is to not buy an "all in one" surveillance system if you want to use cameras from another manufacturer. It's easier, which is why I bought it in the first place, but it is also far more limiting.
