I have been trying to get Ffmpeg running on my home assistant. I am fairly new to home assistant and my understanding of it is very limited at the moment as I’m still learning. I am wanting to add my rtsp streams. I can do this through the homekit integration, but I would like to keep them seperate. I have been following the information supplied on the home assistant ffmpeg website, but I cannot install/excute the commands it states. My system is not debian, so the debian backend commands wont help. I also cannot execute apt commands. I have gone on the ffmpeg website and attempted to install it from the snapshots, but none of them are accepted by my home assistant. I am sure there is a simple solution to this, but I need help please. I cannot seem to add as repository on app store, nor custom repo on hacs. I do not have a directory that is usr/bin/ffmpeg and adding the following to my configuration.yaml yeilded no results.
ffmpeg:
ffmpeg_bin: /usr/bin/ffmpeg
Thank you for any help
