I have a NVR software that I would potentially want to use them with, if the streams are available.

[WM: I think the video streams are locked up tight behind your Amazon credentials and also require an Amazon device for playback through their firewall filters.]

even better than RTSP is HLS for stable streams.

This is just one link to a techdoc below, but there’s a lot of them! Also weatherproofing hacks as well.

Just an aside folks, always run some kind of intermediary streaming server/router/firewall if you plan to publish your streaming RTSP videos on the internet. YouTube actually makes it really easy to stream 24/7 live, but still, stick something secure in the middle.
