It would be much better if Ubiquiti were to implement RTSP streaming directly in the camera itself, so that there would be no requirement for 'retranslation' of the video stream through their software. This is why we don't include the uniFi cameras on our list. While this does work, it's cumbersome and uses extra CPU time on the Mac, so it's not the same as the camera itself supporting RTSP. So the video would be going from the camera to their software and then to SecuritySpy. Instead, it describes how to use their controller software to output a RTSP stream, which requires you to install their software. However the second link does not describe how to obtain an RTSP stream from a newer uniFi camera, because this is currently not possible (i.e. The first link describes how to obtain a RTSP stream from an older airVision camera - this works well and has done since these cameras were released, hence they are on our list of supported cameras. Hi Korey - thanks for emailing them and posting the response! We recommend any customers interested in this to email Ubiquiti customer support to request that they enable RTSP streaming in their UniFi cameras, so that they can be used with third-party software such as SecuritySpy. We were in touch with Ubiquiti a few months ago about this, and they replied that they 'cannot comment' about third-party support via RTSP, so we're not hopeful that this will ever be implemented. This is disappointing, as the cameras otherwise appear to be capable devices, and I'm sure that Ubiquiti will be missing out on many camera sales that they would otherwise get, if the cameras were to work with third-party software. Typically, manufacturers do this in order to create closed systems that require customers to the manufacturer's own NVR hardware, rather than working with third-party NVR software such as SecuritySpy. Unfortunately however, the new 'UniFi' range does not. The older Ubiquiti 'airCam' range does work with SecuritySpy as they support standard streaming protocols such as RTSP.
