A scan shows the following UDP ports open

I am assuming that they are using one of those ports for the video, but not 
sure how to try to get it to send video to me without the app. I have tried to 
get a packet capture on the android device I have the app installed on.


This is a General Tool borescope (same concept at an endoscope) I would like to 
be able to view the video on something beside a phone. I have been able to find 
the paths to video sources on ip cameras but this thing has me stumped.

I tried running wireshark on a laptop and tried to do a capture on the data on 
the Wifi channel but no joy. I remember that I used to be able to do
it in the past, but guess either the encryption or something is not working in 
promiscuous mode.

UDP 8000 is commonly used for Internet radio streaming such as ShoutCast, Winamp, X-Lite, Icecast.
UDP 48153 is in the Dynamic/Private port range of 49152 through 65535
UDP 53 is providing name resolution, ostensibly for the unicast stream connection be the video streaming server & client.

My most educated guess here is that RTSP (Port# 554) is being used for the setup & control of the video streaming connection. The video stream however will most likely use any port in the Dynamic/Private port range of 49152 through 65535.

If you want to view the video stream on your laptop you'll need to use VLC and connect to the RTSP URL for your General Tool IP camera. Here's a pretty good write-up on how to do it => https://www.unifore.net/ip-video-surveillance/how-to-play-rtsp-video-stream-of-ip-cameras-on-vlc-player-quicktime-player.html

Most likely, from what I've read, you'll need to contact General Tool to get the URL if that's even how their system works. A Google search turned up this list of RTSP URLs for hundreds of IP camera manufactures but General Tool isn't listed. The borscope isn't a surveillance camera so they may have some proprietary communication that you can't access via VLC and RTSP.

HTH and good luck!
