    Doesn't look like it, looks like it doesn't support open IP video streaming. Looks like it only works with the companies own Android/Iphone apps.

    "Apart from Tapo app, Tapo cameras can work with other third-party software to use and manage your Tapo camera. Here we take iSpy, a video surveillance software, as an example."

    So yes it should work with software that can handle RTSP streams. VLC should be able to give a live view. iSpy or similar would have more features.

    The rtsp link is in the faq https://www.tapo.com/uk/faq/34/
    You have to modify it with your username and password
