I haven’t had a chance to go through your logs yet, but the value you have for |

Right, my bad. I didn’t see that. I don’t currently have an Ethernet cable plugged in as well so I’ll just get rid of it. Thanks. Looking forward to your thoughts on the stream issue. Cheers! |

Not a big deal, if that is set to a bad value, the code will fall back to trying to autodetect, the same as if you had nothing set at all. So that really shouldn't be your problem or anything. As for your logs, I think I'm gonna have to trace through the code a bit. Can you tell me if you did anything to stop the stream, or if Also, even though I don't see |

The stream ends unexpectedly when I tap on the thumbnail inside the home app and I get a spinner on the image. That’s when the code: 255 error is thrown. I installed it using the config-ui-x plugin manager. Also I tried running your command and I get ‘file not found’. I manually went into that folder and I don’t see an ffmpeg file. The only files there are

Interesting, looks like it was unable to download FFmpeg for some reason. Typically that’s because of a permission issue, but Config UI X should have handled those properly. You said you’re on Raspbian, could you tell me which model of Raspberry Pi you’re running on? Could you also open a terminal and run |
|
I’m using a Pi 3A+ to run homebridge. I installed ffmpeg-for-homebridge using npm and it created a node_modules and package.json file but there is no ffmpeg file inside the ffmpeg-for-homebridge folder, again. It has the same 4 files I posted in the previous comment. |

Can you share the full output of that npm install command? Also, could you share the output of |
|
Sure. Here it is: and Do I have to install globally or inside the homebridge user specifically? |
|
If you're running it with sudo, you'll need to include |
|
I’ve done that now. This is the output:
Reboot and that’s it? |
|
I don't understand what is going on with your setup, it should have had similar output to your previous install. Maybe just try removing it |
|
I’ve done that now. Seems to have installed correctly. |
|
Great, now that we've resolved that, any chance your video is working now? |
|
Unfortunately not. Here's the log: |
|
@Sunoo I see this has been consolidated into one issue with regards to ffmpeg. Any luck or ideas there? |
|
That was a different project referencing a bunch of issues, though I do plan to consolidate over here too when I have a second. No resolution yet, but me and a bunch of camera plugin developers are trying to get to the bottom of this. |
|
Alright thanks. Will await an update. |
|
@Sunoo I’ve tried everything from changing config settings to reinstalling raspbian, homebridge and subsequently this plugin. Everything I do brings me back to the same error. Any luck on your end? |

Describe The Problem:
I’m using a TP LINK C100 with the Tested Configuration, except that I have removed the port number (554) in the rtsp url since that doesn’t work.
The thumbnail in the home app updates every couple seconds but when I click on the video I get the loading icon and in terminal the following output:
To Reproduce:
Use tested configuration of TP Link C100
Input RTSP stream without port number after IP Address
