Re: [Motion-user] Why do I get "method DESCRIBE failed: 401 Unauthorized "

[Brian <bri...@t-...>]

Hi,

sorry this took so long.  I only have restricted access to the LAN from 
the owners living room,

so it is not so easy to spend so much time there, even though they are 
fully supportive.

Adding "Real_stream" to the MRL has got it working OK.

The output of the two cameras is visible on their TV via an HDMI output 
from the Raspi.

Now I need to sort out some over/under-scan stuff and get kiosk mode 
working!

Cheers Brian
