In order to use this, you must own at least one UniFi camera in order to obtain a valid client certificate (Found at /var/etc/persistent/server.pem
via SSH).
RTSP stream:
unifi-cam-proxy --host <NVR IP> --cert client.pem --token uQfUPROZxbkPszvR rtsp -s rtsp://wowzaec2demo.streamlock.net/vod/mp4:BigBuckBunny_175k.mov
Hikvision PTZ (Hikvision DS-2DE3304W-DE):
unifi-cam-proxy -H <NVR IP> -i <camera IP> -c client.pem -t <Adoption token> hikvision -u <username> -p <password>
