Valentina, I have something in an experimental state that could possibly be helpful to you. What I have is not a production solution but could be helpful for you if this is a one time thing or in a pinch. I do believe it could be made productionalized but it isn't something I plan to actively work on anymore so that would be up to you.
- If the plan is to capture and store raw video, what increment should those videos be stored in? Every 5 minutes makes a new file, 10, 3 hours, etc? As Joe mentioned this really matters for the NiFi framework portion of the answer. Understanding it isn't really as simple as a "copy" in this case. - What is expected if a single frame is missed in the "increment" mentioned above. Understand RTSP is notorious for dropping frames so this case is highly likely. - Does any video transcoding need to take place or simply capture and save in the same codec received over RTSP? - What framerate is the producing RTSP stream generating? Would the capture need to be at the same or different rate as the source? - Is the RTSP stream a solution that fully supports the entire RTSP protocol or something custom? Basically is it a product from a vendor or some custom application that might not utilize the entire RTSP protocol stack. - Does the RTSP stream contain any DRM restrictions?
