second ethernet port for IP cameras #1050

Open kmsgli opened 5 years ago

kmsgli commented 5 years ago

Background: Looking for some confirmation and a nudge in the correct direction. Admittedly network stuff is not my thing but I can usually muddle my way through. I have two IP cameras soon to be four running via Motioneye on my Arch Linux desktop computer. Everything works fine but i loose footage occasionally due to piss poor internet service.

Question: Can I use a second ethernet port via PCIe and run the POE switch line back to my computer direct rather then the router so regardless of internet connection I will not loose video recordings.

If so what should i be searching to get the information on how to setup a second LAN that has no actual internet.

thanks in advanced.

Poor internet connection should not cause the cameras to lose connection to your desktop computer, unless you have an unreliable router and/or Ethernet switch, depending on your network setup.

You haven't provided detailed information on your network setup, but if you have a typical setup like this, I don't see why it wouldn't work if you're just recording straight on the desktop computer. Internet --- Router (DHCP server) --- PoE Ethernet Switch --- Desktop computer & all cameras connected directly to switch

I have it setup this way. Modem to router then router to PC router to switch switch to cameras. So the PC and the cameras are not directly connected both go back to the router. Will connecting PC to switch instead of router change anything?

When my modem cuts out camera footage cuts out as well.

Yes, connecting your PC to the switch may change things, again depending on your equipment & config.

Try to diagnose your network problem first.

kmsgli commented 5 years ago

The cameras have a rtsp address that I use to grab from motioneye. I am not sure how to pin from the camera to the PC. Can I just use ping command from the PC terminal and use cameradress to PC address?

  • From a camera, try pinging your PC via IP address rather than hostname, even when internet connection is not available.
  • Try pinging again after connecting your PC to the switch.

Ah, yes, for your setup, PC pinging the camera makes more sense.

kmsgli commented 5 years ago

I will ping both cameras tonight and report back in the morning as I'm at work. I suppose I didn't think this could be an issue with my system rather then my spotty internet. So in theory if the PC is attached to the switch not the router I should be getting camera footage with the modem disconnected?

Yes, assuming your router is at fault for not routing when internet goes down.

kmsgli commented 5 years ago

Well then I have some testing to do. I have an Asus ac 1750. I'll have to see what the story is with it. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction direction. I will return with more information.

So with the cable modem off i can still ping both cameras from the motioneye computer. Makes me think maybe network is not the issue.

The output of journalctl -u motioneye gives me this which is why I figured my corrupted videos and missing files are due to network

I can see two problems from the log.

Nov 02 11:19:25 josh-desktop motion[5925]: [1:ml1] [ERR] [ENC] get_oformat: ffmpeg_video_codec option value mp4:h264_omx is not supported

You have configured your PC to use h264_omx to encode videos, but that's not supported on your platform. It'll just fallback to the default encoder, won't cause video corruption issue that you're seeing. This is just FYI.

Nov 02 11:19:25 josh-desktop motion[5925]: [1:ml1] [ERR] [EVT] event_ffmpeg_newfile: ffopen_open error creating (new) file [/home/Media/Cameras/2018-11-02/11-19-25]: Operation now in progress

This looks like the video recording problem that you're having. What's your ffmpeg version? I think motion developers might be able to help you. To report a motion issue, follow this guide: https://github.com/ccrisan/motioneye/wiki/Report-Motion-Issue

I am sorry that log is from days ago I did figure out the issue with the wrong video format and fixed it tto mpeg.

Just by looking at your log, I can see two problems, but I don't know what caused them and how to solve them.

The camera timed out here, which explains why you're losing video feed.

This is starting to look like motion software problem, and motion developers might be able to help you. See my earlier post on how to report motion issue.

Thanks for your input. I'll start poking around with motion directly and see if I can get some help on the motion boards.

Thanks again.
