My camera feed seems to be running very slow to the point that its not even worth having one. any help in trying to make it usable would be nice. here are my logs and crowsnest config if it helps

`[crowsnest]
log_path: /home/andrew/printer_data/logs/crowsnest.log
log_level: verbose # Valid Options are quiet/verbose/debug
delete_log: false # Deletes log on every restart, if set to true
no_proxy: false

# camera-streamer - Provides webrtc, mjpg and snapshots. (rpi + Raspi OS based only)
enable_rtsp: true # If camera-streamer is used, this enables also usage of an rtsp server
rtsp_port: 8554 # Set different ports for each device!

Do you have some fps estimation for us?

#

For your information, cranking up the fps inside the config will not increase the fps you get. It's just about the possible fps the stream could have. Your cam is only capable of 1920x1080@30fps so 60 shouldn't be inside there.

Size: Discrete 1920x1080
Interval: Discrete 0.033s (30.000 fps)
Interval: Discrete 0.042s (24.000 fps)
Interval: Discrete 0.050s (20.000 fps)
Interval: Discrete 0.067s (15.000 fps)
Interval: Discrete 0.100s (10.000 fps)
Interval: Discrete 0.133s (7.500 fps)
Interval: Discrete 0.200s (5.000 fps)

I recommend to reduce it to 20 as this is by far enough to monitor your print

#

After those changes see if it's better
