Built in C# using WPF and powered by LibVLCSharp.\n\n\u003e **Note**: Most of the architecture and functionality of this project was designed and implemented with the help of [ChatGPT (OpenAI)](https://openai.com/chatgpt).\n\n---\n\n## 🚀 Features\n\n- 📷 View multiple RTSP streams in a grid layout\n- 🔒 Save camera settings (IP, username, password, etc.) to a local config file\n- ➕ Add/remove cameras dynamically via a GUI\n- 🧩 Built with modern .NET and VLC libraries\n- 🖥️ Compatible with most ONVIF / RTSP-capable NVRs and IP cameras\n- 🌗 Attempts to follow system theme (light/dark), but full theme support is still being improved\n\n---\n\n## 📦 Tech Stack\n\n- [.NET 8.0 (LTS)](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/)\n- [WPF](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/desktop/wpf/)\n- [LibVLCSharp](https://code.videolan.org/videolan/LibVLCSharp)\n- JSON-based local config file for camera persistence\n\n---\n\n## 🛠️ How to Build\n\n### Prerequisites\n\n- Visual Studio 2022 or newer\n- [.NET 8 SDK](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/8.0)\n- Git (optional, for cloning)\n\n\u003e 🔧 **No standalone VLC installation is required at runtime.** The app uses `VideoLAN.LibVLC.Windows` NuGet package, which bundles the required native binaries (`libvlc.dll`, `libvlccore.dll`, `plugins/`). Just publish the full output folder.\n\n\u003e 🏗️ **Note**: Final build targets `x64` only.\n\n### Steps\n\n1. **Clone the repository:**\n\n   ```bash\n   git clone https://github.com/yourname/RTSPDeck.git\n   cd RTSPDeck\n   ```\n\n2. **Open the solution:**\n\n   Open `RTSPDeck.sln` in Visual Studio 2022.\n\n3. **Install required NuGet packages (if not restored):**\n\n   ```powershell\n   Install-Package LibVLCSharp.WPF\n   Install-Package LibVLCSharp\n   Install-Package VideoLAN.LibVLC.Windows\n   ```\n\n4. **Build and run the project.**\n\n---\n\n## 📂 Configuration\n\nRTSPDeck uses a JSON file to store camera information. This is created automatically on first run as `config.json` in the same directory as the executable.\n\nEach camera feed entry includes:\n\n- `Name`\n- `IPAddress`\n- `Port`\n- `Username`\n- `Password`\n- `CameraNumber`\n\nThese values are used to generate a complete RTSP URL for each feed.\n\n---\n\n## 🎥 RTSP URL Format\n\nRTSPDeck builds stream URLs like so:\n\n```\nrtsp://{username}:{password}@{ip}:{port}/Streaming/Channels/{cameraNumber}\n```\n\nExample:\n\n```\nrtsp://admin:secretpass@192.168.0.90:554/Streaming/Channels/101\n```\n\nThis format is compatible with ANNKE, Hikvision, Dahua, Reolink, and most ONVIF-compliant systems.\n\n---\n\n## 🌓 Theme Support\n\nRTSPDeck attempts to automatically follow your system theme (light or dark). However, full support (including runtime switching and modern accent color blending) is still in development. For now:\n\n- Default styling matches light theme\n- Some system brushes (`SystemColors.*BrushKey`) are used dynamically\n- Dark theme styling may require explicit selection in a future release\n\n---\n\n## 🙏 Credits\n\n- Core design and implementation assisted by [ChatGPT](https://chat.openai.com)\n- RTSP video handling via [LibVLCSharp](https://code.videolan.org/videolan/LibVLCSharp)\n- WPF UI based on native Windows controls\n- Inspired by a need for a minimal, no-cloud, open RTSP viewer\n\n---\n\n## 📄 License\n\nThis project is licensed under the **MIT License**.
