Unable to view webcam stream on separate machine #47

Open holmqrappdev opened 1 year ago

holmqrappdev commented 1 year ago

I have the software setup on a raspi 4. I am attempting to input a USB webcam feed and view on a separate machine. When I set up the webcam on the pi the webcam light is on and I am able to view the stream on the pi in the player tab. On my separate machine I can see the name of the stream so I know the connectivity is working but when I attempt to access the stream via newtek NDI video monitor or OBS I do not get a picture. I am however able to stream a video from the client machines and view the stream on the host via the player tag. Any ideas on why the webcam stream will only show in player on the local but not on the client machine players?

I had the same issue with my Pi4, and discovered that only a wired ethernet connection works. I've tried changing the interface in /etc/dicaffeine/dserver.json to wlan0, as well as disable eth0, but no such luck. Is there some other setting that might get the wifi streaming working? Or would streaming via wifi be too slow to pursue this any further?

same problem here

Would like to add: Even a 720p10 Text-Stream does not show any frame.

I nticed however, that if you rbeoot while the streamer is running, sometimes a single frame comes through right before the pi goes down

Same issue here. OBS, Proclaim, and NDI Video Monitor are unable to see the stream. This makes this practically useless for our case.
