Is a Pi 3 Suggeste? #19

Open VeniceNerd opened 6 years ago

VeniceNerd commented 6 years ago

I have two Nest cams that I’d like to integrate into HomeKit. Will a dedicated Pi 3 be sufficient to live stream both cameras or is it suggested that I run this plugin on something like an iMac? I’d prefer not to have this running on my Mac and would rather get a dedicated Pi 3 but want to make sure I’m not going to have degraded performance/quality.

Thanks!

I also have two Nest Cams. Works for me on a Pi 3.

@mend1 What process did you follow to get the nest cams working on the RP3? Did you have to make your feed public and use the ispy http access to get it working with homebridge-camera-ffmpeg-omx?

mend1 commented 5 years ago

I used the homebridge-nest-cam plugin, not homebridge-camera-ffmpeg-omx. I did not need to make the feed public.

@mend1 I did the same thing, but it only shows up as a motion detector. it wont show a video stream or snippet.

I also have two Nest Cams, works for me on a Pi3 but the video is extremely laggy...

I've enable OMX in the config.json and compile FFmpeg with OMX following this WIKI https://github.com/KhaosT/homebridge-camera-ffmpeg/wiki/Raspberry-PI

But it seems the performance are the same wether I set UseOMX to "true" or "false"...
