Hi, Sorry currently only buster is supported. There are workarounds for bullseye https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/rpisurv/viewtopic.php?p=1113#p1113
Thank you for the response. We’ve settled on Buster. I’m still having difficulty with the smoothness of video playback on a Raspberry Pi 4 (4gb) but I’m wondering if it’s an issue with the new cameras we have. We are using Digital Watchdog DWC-V4283WD and have had difficulty getting it to display an RTSP stream that the Raspberry Pis using VLC can handle. I may create a separate post to see if others have been successful with a 3x3 grid using DW cameras.
Thanks again for the follow up, have a great day!

Try lowering the stream resolution to the minimum, the RPi4 will choke on multiple streams, even at 720p.
Hello, I am trying to get RPISurv to work on a raspberry pi to output RTSP streams from Digital Watchdog, but I am unable to get the service to start. Below is the output of sudo systemctl status rpisurv.
pi@pi-adm-ath1:~ $ pi@pi-adm-ath1:~ $ systemctl status rpisurv ● rpisurv.service - Rpisurv Raspberry Pi Surveillance Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/rpisurv.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: activating (auto-restart) (Result: exit-code) since Tue 2023-10-31 17:35:46 EDT; 4s ago Process: 1060 ExecStart=/usr/bin/rpisurv (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) Main PID: 1060 (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) CPU: 1.471s
Here is the output of main.log: 2023/10/31 17:36:07 - l_default - INFO - Starting rpisurv 3.0.0 2023/10/31 17:36:07 - l_default - DEBUG - Make sure vlc binary can be executed as root 2023/10/31 17:36:29 - l_default - INFO - Starting rpisurv 3.0.0 2023/10/31 17:36:29 - l_default - DEBUG - Make sure vlc binary can be executed as root
And the output daemon.log:
Thank you in advance. I've used a script that worked using deprecated omxplayer in the past for Unifi cameras, but am new to rpisurv, looks like an excellent project.
Update: It seems the closest workaround I can find on Bullseye is to run: sudo raspi-config and set the GL Driver to Legacy under 'Advanced Options'. However, I am seeing poor performance for the feeds running the standard 2x2 grid and RTSP feeds (640x480). I previously used omxplayer to run 3x3 grid of the same RTSP feeds using the same Raspberry Pi hardware with little to no issues. Am I missing something to optimize performance?
