Hello,

I have a IP camera that setup to stream RTSP via R.264 encoding. I am able to stream RTSP directly from the camera using VLC with this endpoint:

```auto
rtsp://my-username:my-password@192.168.0.186:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=1

```

My ignition webserver is on the same network (same computer that I am able to stream using VLC), but I am unable to get the Perspective video player to work. The online documentation for the Perspective Video Player doesn't describe what is needed for the connection string.

Thank you!
