Hello... i find this very odd.... i have 2 wyze cameras that i have the thingio firmware on for the RTSP stream. i have this line in my frigate config:?

ffmpeg:rtsp://thingino:thingino@192.168.20.101:554/ch1

and prior to upgrading to 0.15.0 it worked fine. the camera showed up in frigate. last night i upgraded to 0.15.0 and now without me changing anything else those two cameras show the black abd white exclamation point and the no frames error and in go2rtc i see this error

all i did was upgrade... did i miss something??

Yes this points to an issue in the config. Bin is likely specified, the release notes covered that this needs to be removed

#

i have 3 other cameras (different brands) that use the same ffmpeg in the config and they are working

#

ok i will go re-read the release notes

#

may i ask is it odd then that the other 3 still work if that line needs to be removed?

#

ok.... one last question please... i have removed the ffmpeg from most of my config and my two cameras are back. thank you. i have this in my config and was the only thing that worked to get 2 way audio in HA working... do i need to remove ffmpeg from here too? @ripe pilot

#

To be clear the ffmpeg: was fine

#

It was bin: ffmpeg under go2rtc that breaks things

sorry... i may be just dumb.. so i don't quite understand. my reolink doorbell camera is still working using the config i just showed you, but i do see some references in the log about the "path" so perhaps i need to remove the ffmpeg from before the HTTP too? i guess i will have to try it? i just don't want to lose the 2 way audio that took forever for me to get right

#

now its getting worse... wow... i really have no idea what i am doing wrong

#

is this what you are saying need to be removed? not all the other "ffmpegs" that i removed?

#

Yes, that single line in the problem

#

i removed it and my system keeps restarting... the cameras come up and i see them and few moments they later they all crash

#

proxmox is showing the cpu is going quite high

#

system is so unstable now... i am not sure what is wrong at this point

#

i really hate to ask.... but could you look at my config and let me know what i am doing wrong? i commented out tha bin line and my system is just going wonky....

Need to see logs and system metrics screenshot

green dust Apr 13, 2025, 2:54 PM

#

i'll try... its so unstable its hard to keep it up long enough to get them

#

#

#

#

that was after a reboot so not too much too show

#

the logs keep resetting

#

📎 frigate-logs_1.txt 📎 frigate-logs.txt 📎 frigate_logs_2.txt 📎 frigate_logs_1.txt 📎 frigate_logs.txt

#

📎 New_Text_Document.txt

#

not sure how much this will affect things but saw the error about SHM size being low so i increased that. will see if it helps the issue

#

helped some, but this is what i see in the logs just before it crashes....

#

you probably need to use qsv not vaapi

green dust Apr 13, 2025, 5:43 PM

#

ok i will try that. any way i can determine if i need the 264 or the 265 one?

#

or just trial and error?
