Unable to play incoming RTMP stream from DJI drone live stream feature

[bdr99]

I have a DJI Mavic Air 2 drone. The drone's Android app supports live streaming the camera view to an RTMP server. When I try live streaming to go2rtc, I get this error when I try to play the stream in my browser:

14:18:21.388 ERR github.com/AlexxIT/go2rtc/internal/mjpeg/init.go:166 > error="streams: unknown error"

Here is the RTMP URL I'm using in the app: rtmp://192.168.1.177:1935/drone

Here is my config:

streams:
  drone:

rtmp:
  listen: ":1935"

webrtc:
  candidates:
    - stun:8555

Here is the response from the info endpoint when the stream is running:

{
  "producers": [
    {
      "type": "FLV producer",
      "recv": 760641
    }
  ],
  "consumers": null
}

And here are the full trace logs when I try to play the stream:

Please let me know if there is any other info I can provide to help troubleshoot this.

[AlexxIT]

Unfortunately I can't see any useful in your logs. I'll try to get RTMP from my GoPro camera. Maybe can find the problem

[bdr99]

Thanks @AlexxIT for the reply. It seems like it's possible to start the RTMP stream in the DJI Fly app even without a drone connected. Maybe this can help you replicate the issue.

[bdr99]

Hi @AlexxIT, is there anything I can do to assist with diagnosing this issue? I'd be happy to direct my stream at a go2rtc instance controlled by you, if it would help. Just let me know. I'm also on Discord as bdr99 if you'd like to contact me there to make it easier to collaborate.

Was trying to do something similar using the DJI Pocket 3 but running into the same issue! Any suggestions? It does look like data is being received as the recv numbers go up if I refresh... I could be misinterpreting though

[bdr99]

Unfortunately I was not able to make any progress on this issue. I'm still happy to help @AlexxIT with any diagnostics or troubleshooting steps.

[AlexxIT]

I think you can't help me remotely. I need to check stream in the debugger. And needs to hope that the GoPro will have the same problem. Anyway, I haven't had time to check this

Hi all, any advancements to this specific subject ? Trying to use the RTMP stream to send data from my Xiaomi Yi 4K camera, using the rtmp://:1935/ and although the service starts properly listening on the 1935 port, camera cannot connect to the rtmp server ... getting same error as in the description. Created in configuration without source same as @bdr99 . What should I do next ?
