Describe the issue

When I'm running the latest-rpi docker image I get a warning about a mismatch between Unicam and CamHelper, and when I go to view the stream in my browser I get a 404 page not found. I also noticed when I go back to the log after requesting stream in the browser it's saying [muxer cam] destroyed (no one is publishing to path 'cam'). I turned on the legacy interface for the RPiCam and ran vcgencmd get_camera and the pi shows the cam supported and detected. Went back and turned off the legacy interface restarted the Pi and reran the docker image to only still got the same error.

Describe how to replicate the issue

start the RPi

run the container image "docker run --rm -it \ --network=host \ --privileged \ --tmpfs /dev/shm:exec \ -v /run/udev:/run/udev:ro \ -e MTX_PATHS_CAM_SOURCE=rpiCamera \ aler9/rtsp-simple-server:latest-rpi"

Did you attach the server logs?

yes

Did you attach a network dump?

no

Hello, what is the output of command libcamera-still ?

Hey @aler9 ,

ran the libcamera-still with and without the docker container running to show both outputs.

Other steps I've tried:

• Changing the PI config to specify IMX219 for the rpiCamv2
• turning off camera-auto-detect in the config, both setting it to =0 and # commenting out the line entirely
• enabling glamor
• setting the GL driver to GL (Full KMS)

If libcamera-still or libcamera-vid don't work with your specific camera, there's nothing that can be done in the server, since the server uses the same backend (libcamera). When adding support for the camera into the server, we chose to use the libcamera backend since the legacy one is deprecated. Contact the maintainers of libcamera and describe your issue.
