Streaming CCTV camera into home assistant

Hi, I am trying to stream video from my cctv in the Home Assistant so I can view it on the dashboard.

However I have searched high and low and tried all possible combinations to stream it. I can stream the camera in VLC using the link rtsp://admin:***@10.107.1.:00554/ch01/0 and it loads the stream fine.

Without adding the camera component and adding the following code

stream:
camera:
  - platform: generic
    still_image_url: http://10.107.1.***:00085/Streaming/Channels/101/picture
    stream_source: rtsp://admin:*******@10.107.1.***:00554/ch01/0
    username: "admin"
    password: "******"
    authentication: digest

I get the error

no camera1920×800 98.8 KB

Once I install the custom camera component I get this error

no camera 21920×933 118 KB

All I am trying to do is play the stream. or even play it in a iframe or anyway possible. Or is this something not possible? Any help will be appreciated.
