Reolink Duo Floodlight WiFi main stream not loading "codecs not matched"

[chinswain]

Hi Alex,

I have a Reolink Duo Floodlight WiFi, when adding the main stream I get this error:

22:15:37.497 DBG [webrtc] add consumer error="streams: codecs not matched: H265, AAC => VP8, RTX, VP9, H264, OPUS, G722, PCMU, PCMA, TELEPHONE-EVENT, S16B, S16L"

The sub stream works correctly.

MAIN: rtsp://xxxx:xxxx@192.168.86.12:554/h264Preview_01_main SUB: rtsp://xxxx:xxxx@192.168.86.12:554/h264Preview_01_sub

Both streams work correctly in VLC.

Main:

4608*1728 15 FPS 5120 Kbps

Sub: 1536*576 15 FPS 1024 KBps

Using Version: 1.7.1

what are you trying to use? it looks like you are trying to use webrtc and the main stream is h.265 which is not compatible with h.265

My main setup is Frigate with it's internal go2rtc but I've installed a standalone docker of the latest go2rtc to test.

I've tried every streaming option on the go2rtc web interface.

I'm not sure if this camera is H265 on the main stream, I'll do some googling. Is it not possible to use it if it is?

reolink duo is only h.265 on the main stream. webrtc does not support h.265 (except in safari with experimental settings) and MSE only supports h.265 in browsers that support h.265

Ahh that explains it - I'll return it and find another that is compatible.

Thanks for your help.
