I’ve been trying to fix this issue for the past few days, I hope you guys can help me because I’ve tried almost everything. (ONVIF, ffmpeg, rtsp generic camera)
I have 2 RLC-422 and a NUC7i7BNH with 20 gb RAM, the cameras work fine through lovelace with 2 streams at maximum resolution (2560x1920 30fps), the issue is when I try to see them through HomeKit because sometimes they work for 5 seconds and then they freeze.
Im using generic camera with Hikvision and can view the cameras well from lovelace but in homekit it seems very slow. I used to get fluent streams but since I upgraded to 0.115 from 0.113 it has been choppy. With errors such as Error demuxing stream: No dts in consecutive packets
I’ve never reported it in HA mostly because I run my homebridge on a beefy server while my HA instance runs on a Pi and I like it to have some breathing room.
Muxing 13 5mp streams through ffmpeg is a bit taxing on a Pi.
are you guys running homebridge and homeassistant together? If it works I can try adding the cameras through homebridge and connect them to my main HomeKit server.
I was researching and trying to find a solution to this problem. Managed to get it all working, Stills refresh about every 5-10 seconds. Live view works great.
I have a the following camera:
RLC-410W
Build No. build 20051603
Hardware No. IPC_51316M
Configuration Version v2.0.0.0
Firmware Version v2.0.0.648_20051603
Also having issues with Homekit using the ‘Sub’ RTSP stream vs the ‘Main’ stream. However, I can stream the main feed through frontend/lovelace and HA iOS app with no problems.
Sorry for not responding for a long time. A couple of weeks ago I bought another reolink camera and I can’t make it work reliably with HomeKit, I don’t know if I have to lower the frame rate or what because they’re partially working with the same settings. I’m using the camera within the same network.
