[Support]: Events and recordings not being saved when using go2rtc

[ttopholm]

Describe the problem you are having

Hi,

I have a reolink RLC-511WA, and followed the guide here: https://docs.frigate.video/configuration/camera_specific#reolink-cameras

I can see the stream live, and it detects fine in frigate, but the recording doesn't work, when I look in the look it says the following:

Event does not have recordings: 1689966525.154536-tezilr

First thing I'd suggest trying is moving to ffmpeg: for the entire go2rtc config and see if that makes a difference.

@NickM-27 can you explain what you mean ;-)

[NickM-27]

go2rtc:
  streams:
    skur_main: 
      - "ffmpeg:http://192.168.xx.xx/flv?port=1935&app=bcs&stream=channel0_main.bcs&user=xx&password=xx#video=copy#audio=copy#audio=opus"
    skur_sub: 
      - "ffmpeg:http://192.168.xx.xx/flv?port=1935&app=bcs&stream=channel0_ext.bcs&user=xx&password=xxx"

[ttopholm]

that didn't do the trick. If I use: rtsp://xx:xx@192.168.xx.xx:554/h264Preview_01_main in the camera -> ffmpeg->inputs->path. it works fine, but have the jigger in the video sometimes.

[NickM-27]

Then Id suggest just having frigate connect directly to the camera using http-flv

@NickM-27 that works, thanks.
