I am trying to set up the RTSP feed. I have tested the feed in VLC and it works fine. I added a picture entity card - I am doing something wrong but not sure what. Thoughts?

Config.yaml

amcrest:
  - host: 192.168.1.108
    name: cam_test
    resolution: low
    username: <user>
    password: <pass>
    port: 554
    stream_source: rtsp

ui.yaml

- type: picture-entity
  entity: camera.cam_test
  camera_view: live

One of the differences I see is that there are parameters on the URL when it is added as generic. When I used the above implementation I don’t know how to select the camera since I have 4 connected. These are the parameters

/cam/realmonitor?channel=4&subtype=0
