Frigate clips will not play on 24.11.1

[Kdemontf]

The problem

Upgrade to Core 24.11.0 results in being unable to view clips from Frigate integration(clips gallery in Frigate card, nor Media Browser panel). The clip opens but shows 0 seconds of recording and will not play. The same clips work fine in 24.10.4

For me problem is fixed with Version 24.11.1

I also see that the FFmpeg warning disappears in 24.11.1, however the clips still do not play, I adjusted the title. Additionally, if the same clip is sent to my phone as a notification, the clip will play on the HA Android App

I just setup Frigate and wondering why I can't play clips

[uksoftware]

I have literally spent hours today trying to work out what I`ve changed to make clips no longer work! Turns out I haven't done anything.

I just started messing with Frigate a week ago and was wondering what I was doing wrong with the media files. Same issue I can't play any of the media files from Frigate. I do store clips from my Blink Camera's in HA media and they play fine.

I think they wont fix this until maybe December release. Anybody knows if there is some other custom player to view clips? I searched but no luck so far.

Also 24.11.3 same problem

Just configured HA with Frigate, and spend way too much time attempting to "configure" this, just to find this thread.

I believe this issue was fixed with this PR https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/pull/22875 and will likely be in the next frontend release

[dedors]

At least the just released 24.11.3 did not fix it.

In frigate, the clips started working after I switched the encoding of the camera to H264 and AAC. They still don't work in the HA Media Browser.

Commenting to confirm, also just installed this and wondering why it wasn't working. Just updated today and same issue.

I don't want to spam the good folks working on this, but I'd like to confirm/offer that (as of 24.11.3):

1) h.265 is not the reason clips/videos/recordings won't play; they play fine for me in frigate "proper" (from the left menu). 2) All clips/videos/recordings will not play from Home Assistant media-browser, nor anything that relies on it. 3) Live stream seems to work fine everywhere (including media-browser) and not just from frigate.

I'm running Home Assistant Operating System on a Raspberry Pi 4 (frigate add-on and integration, MQTT add-on... all very "vanilla" without virtual machines and such).

Thank you for all of your hard work.

I looked into 24.11.3, the fix (https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/pull/22875) is not a part of it. I think it will be fixed in the next release then.

[Kdemontf]

This is resolved for me in 24.12.0b1.

Thanks all
