hey everyone, I'm having some trouble setting up crowsnest on my fluidd install. I followed the install guide and got everything set up (or so I think) and am getting no signal back but if I restart the firmware the camera feed shows up for a few seconds and then goes back to having no signal. any help on this would be amazing thank you all!

Fix your device:
device: device: /dev/v4l/by-id/usb-Sonix_Technology_Co.__Ltd._REDRAGON_Live_Camera_Audio_SN0001-video-index0 is wrong
device: /dev/v4l/by-id/usb-Sonix_Technology_Co.__Ltd._REDRAGON_Live_Camera_Audio_SN0001-video-index0 would be correct

ope thanks for spotting that, just fixed that issue and its still doing the same thing no change

#

just fixed it, i had to # out [cam 1] in the crowsnest config and that got it working propery

exactly what I was thinking lol

#

Could you send your log and conf again. I'm really curious now

willow fern
#

sure thing

little maple
#

Could it be that you got the fluidd webcam service configured?

#

The log show actually that no streamer gets started

#

Also you should remove the newline after your device. This leads to some weird parsing error inside the log

#

So instead of:

device: /dev/v4l/by-id/usb-Sonix_Technology_Co.__Ltd._REDRAGON_Live_Camera_Audio_SN0001-video-index0
                     # See Log for available ...

Use:

device: /dev/v4l/by-id/usb-Sonix_Technology_Co.__Ltd._REDRAGON_Live_Camera_Audio_SN0001-video-index0 # See Log for available ...

it could be but when I was having no luck getting fluidds webcam service to work so thats why I went to install crowsnest and thats how I got here, but if I stop crowsnest all together the webcam doesnt function at all so I honestly do not know

#

thank you ill go and update that

Ok, then let me have a look at the debug log. So set log_level: debug and delete_log: true. Maybe it's starting ustreamer anyway because of some fallback

#

Will do, I am running a print currently so I will get those new logs to you once it is finished

Ok thank you ๐Ÿ˜„
Can you also send the output of systemctl status crowsnest? As crowsnest didn't start anything according to that log but also didn't shut down, if I see that correct

#

Ok, tested it myself, got some "old" installation on a test pi.

#

So crowsnest is running but without anything
