opencv dont receive camera stream

I have a simple IP camera connected to a video encoder "barracuda haivision S-280E-SDI" I can receive the camera feed just fine with vlc, using the folowing URL:

rtsp://10.5.1.2:554

then, I tried to play the video with python and opencv, using the following code:

cap = cv2.VideoCapture('rtsp://10.5.1.2:554', cv2.CAP_FFMPEG)

while cap.isOpened():
  ret, frame = cap.read()
  cv2.imshow('frame', frame)
  if cv2.waitKey(1) == ord(1):
    break
cap.release()
cap.destroyALLWindows()

but I get Error message:

[rtsp @ 0000219d1e4e580] method SETUP failed: 500

why does it happen? what can I do to fix it?
