Did you know? Angelcam works with over 99% of cameras!

We’re proud to say that Angelcam works with almost any camera, DVR, NVR, or other devices that support h.264 video encoding and RTSP streaming protocol, which is almost all of them are currently available on the market.

Even though h.264 and RTSP are the industry standards and the recommended connection method for Angelcam, we currently also support MJPEG cameras as well, even in cloud recording.

Below you’ll find the complete list of camera brands tested with Angelcam. Please note that this doesn't mean other unlisted cameras won't work. In fact, most other brands will work if they support the above-mentioned protocols (h.264 and RTSP).

When connecting a camera not mentioned on this list, please select, "I don't know the brand", when asked. Please be aware that the detection can take a bit longer in these cases.
