RTSP Camera with octo4a on TVbox #469

Open brunonmoreira1 opened 3 months ago

brunonmoreira1 commented 3 months ago

Probably this isn't a common problem, but I'm running octo4a on a TVbox with a Tapo C100 Camera (this is the setup I have available).

Since the camera is on RTSP I cannot find any tutorial to make it run on octoprint.

Could someone help me?

@brunonmoreira1 Did you ever figure this one out? The key is that OctoPrint (and this is independent of Octo4A) uses an mjpeg stream. You could look into something like rtsp2mjpeg or maybe follow along the forum post I found this on.

In general you will need to see if you can get an HLS, MJPEG or convert your RTSP stream out of your camera as Octo4A's camera system simply creates an mJPEG from the built in camera and doesn't do reprocessing. Can you confirm what exactly you are trying to do?
