Did you check this Common Issues pages ?

[DavTechFr]

Yes

[mcarroll779]

I've got the same issue as well

[schliemann]

Awaiting input from @lenoxys

[jubudu]

Hello, I got the same issue.

I checked common issues page, updated everything and ran sudo npm i ffmpeg-for-homebridge -g with no errors.

Log when trying to stream: FFmpeg exited with code: 1 and signal: null (Error) Doorbell

[mrota83]

same here was working well before updated to 1.0.6

[taaa22]

Facing same issue!

[voldzi]

Unfortunately ...the same for me (also checked common issue...)

[mmz06]

Hello, same issue here !!! (also checked common issue...) Reverting back to a few older versions the plugin (1.0.2, 1.0.3, 1.0.4) or Homebridge (v1.3.7 or v1.3.6) didn't help, BTW...

[njuart]

My Eufy 2k also stopped streaming, but snapshots are getting updated. Nothing specific in logs as I see

[Kneudel]

Same Issue here.

If you check the NPM addon by boprat (https://www.npmjs.com/package/eufy-security-client), there is now a v2 api with captcha authentication. I guess we need annupdate om the authentication: Example: https://github.com/bropat/eufy-security-client/blob/master/src/http/api.ts

[Sebbl81]

I have the same issue like above.

[bcblur]

I have this, also. Looks to be because we have unquoted parens in the command line:

Current: ffmpeg -i -an -sn -dn -codec:v libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p -color_range mpeg -r 30 -f rawvideo -preset ultrafast -tune zerolatency -filter:v scale='min(1280,iw)':'min(720,ih)':force_original_aspect_ratio=decrease,scale=trunc(iw/2)2:trunc(ih/2)2 ...

This works on the command line: ffmpeg -i -an -sn -dn -codec:v libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p -color_range mpeg -r 30 -f rawvideo -preset ultrafast -tune zerolatency -filter:v scale='min(1280,iw)':'min(720,ih)':force_original_aspect_ratio=decrease,scale='trunc(iw/2)2:trunc(ih/2)2' ...

....and now only how to solve it :-) (thanks all!)

[nanoupi42]

Hi, Same problem here, I don't have this file "streamingDelegate.ts". Any ideas ? :

[Loatty]

Any way to fix this? I am having the same problem

[Deshmir]

I tried the change that @bcblur suggested, but then it crashes. Moved the ‘ a bit back and forth, but no luck

[bcblur]

Yeah. It was only a partial fix. Mine still blows up. It looks like it doesn't like the first argument after each of the two URIs. I don't know FFMPEG well enough to do anything about this. Experimenting

[eRWN]

Hi everyone

Something strange today on my side

I jsut installed Hombridge and this hombridge-eufy-security plugin. The first time I launched the video in iOS Home application, the video stream was playing But next time I tried it didn't play anymore.

A trail...

On my side I looked what @bcblur was talking about

I have this, also. Looks to be because we have unquoted parens in the command line: Then I found the previous version of the line and found filters.push('scale=\'trunc(iw/2)*2\':\'trunc(ih/2)*2\''); // Force to fit encoder restrictions ( in src/accessories/streamingDelegate.ts previously at line 178 here : https://github.com/samemory/homebridge-eufy-security/commit/87217bf5c189f13d073924d170108a9b7fe6f886#diff-daa22098f16864aa4ded78d7957e2baaf5b1263c7e4a14d2f07a0bcb46c14c23 )

... that failed ?

@Deshmir, I'd like to know if that's what you exactly tried

I tried the change that @bcblur suggested, but then it crashes. Moved the ‘ a bit back and forth, but no luck And I would like to know if this previous version should be the solution

The solution ?

So correct current : filters.push('scale=trunc(iw/2)*2:trunc(ih/2)*2'); // Force to fit encoder restrictions to previous : filters.push('scale=\'trunc(iw/2)*2\':\'trunc(ih/2)*2\''); // Force to fit encoder restrictions

[njuart]

The solution ?

So correct current :

filters.push('scale=trunc(iw/2)*2:trunc(ih/2)*2'); // Force to fit encoder restrictions

to previous :

filters.push('scale=\'trunc(iw/2)*2\':\'trunc(ih/2)*2\''); // Force to fit encoder restrictions

Doesn't seem to work, nothing changed after replacing current line with older one. Still getting error in logs. What I did is: Changed line in StreamingDelegate.js -> Re-uploaded file to my RPi -> Restarted HB. But I might have done something wrong, not sure.

[fullphat]

Could you post the path to StreamingDelegate.js? I'll try it myself as well.

[njuart]

Could you post the path to StreamingDelegate.js? I'll try it myself as well.

In my setup I found it here

/usr/local/lib/node_modules/homebridge-eufy-security/dist/accessories/StreamingDelegate.js

[Deshmir]

@eRWN I've changed the following filters.push('scale=trunc(iw/2)*2:trunc(ih/2)*2'); //Froce to fit encoder restrictions to filters.push('scale='trunc(iw/2)*2':'trunc(ih/2)*2''); //Froce to fit encoder restrictions But that didn't seem to work.

I'm kinda lost here now

[Dravegon]

found this: https://www.bountysource.com/issues/94450709-ffmpeg-exit-with-code-1-when-audio-is-enabled

might be an audio related problem, can somebody try homebridge-eufy-security version 0.2.13 (07-26-2021) as it is without audio on livestream my pi is kinda busy atm reinstalling FFMPEG(takes a while)

[Deshmir]

@dr @eRWN @davtechfr

I installed the beta version: homebridge-eufy-security v1.1.1-beta.2

@dr @eRWN

I installed the beta version: homebridge-eufy-security v1.1.1-beta.2

Stream works again 👍

But isn't beta crashing? Also, as I know fix related to devices disappearing wasn't pushed to beta, only to master.

[Deshmir]

@njuart I didn't know beta was/is crashing, at the moment just trying to figure out why the stream stopped working in the 1.0.6 version.

[fullphat]

I've been doing some testing of my own (thanks for the path to the file) and have removed all references to audio and resize filters, and I've swapped the codec to "copy" - basically replicating how my working camera in homebridge-ffmpeg looks. Still no success however, although I'm trying to make a floodlight work, not a doorbell.

[bcblur]

I hacked up the streamingDelegate.js file and managed to make all of the ffmpeg errors go away, but the stream still doesn't work. It hangs until it's cancelled. Will try updating to the beta build.

[eRWN]

Thanks @njuart for the path I didn't find before I tried a lot of things with quotes, double quote, escape char "\" but nothing did work (I had even more logs) @bcblur I also tried the beta but still the same result on my side (the stream doesn't work), say us if it works for you ;)

[bcblur]

No good for me either. Here's the patch for my changes to the streamingDelegate.js file I installed ffmpeg on my Win10 laptop and worked on the params until it no longer complained. Streaming still hangs, but it no longer errors out immediately.

streamingDelegate.js.patch.txt

[andypburke]

@njuart I didn't know beta was/is crashing, at the moment just trying to figure out why the stream stopped working in the 1.0.6 version.

On the beta version, the reason it seems to work is it is using the local livestream version (i.e. not going through the cloud) which is also why it is much faster to stream. The problem is it does crash, but I have managed to limit the impact by running the plugin in its own child bridge - meaning when it crashes it doesn't cause the homebridge to reboot.

I am running this (less than optimal) setup until the FFmpeg issue is resolved, but at least it enables the livestream. Not sure of the impact on doorbell push or anything else as yet.

[Sebbl81]

I tested also the beta version. I have a Docker Installation on a Synology in a own child bridge with following error message (see attached file)

OS | Alpine Linux (3.12.3) Node v14.15.5 NPM v7.18.1 Eufy Product: Eufy Battery Doorbell 2K

No good for me either. Here's the patch for my changes to the streamingDelegate.js file I installed ffmpeg on my Win10 laptop and worked on the params until it no longer complained. Streaming still hangs, but it no longer errors out immediately. streamingDelegate.js.patch.txt

@bcblur I just applied your patch to 1.0.6 and now the thumb in Home app does update <3 but still no stream either

My logs now:

I think the issue is here:

"ffmpeg -i -an"

I'm sure ffmpeg expects something after the -i parameter, presumably a rtsp/rtmp URI?

[bcblur]

Played with it a bit and got streaming working for devices with RTSP enabled. I haven't figured out non-RTSP streaming devices. Looking at the debug logs, there doesn't appear to be a property that gives the location of a cloud streaming URL.

excuse my hackiness streamingDelegate.js.patch2.txt

^^^ updated the patch to eliminate some unhandled exceptions

[MrTomAsh]

@bcblur I can't see RTSP setup for the battery doorbell so I assume those are not included in your patch?

[bcblur]

Yeah. There’s no RTSP on the doorbell. Which sucks, because that’s the only device I need working. I might try some MITM traffic captures tomorrow with Burp to see what the web client does

[bcblur]

Upstream bug in the eufy-security-client module that's used here: https://github.com/fuatakgun/eufy_security/issues/126

**** ignore this. it was late and i confused tabs when i was looking at OSS eufy libraries

[sluxtor]

I am also dealing with this issue on my wired 2K doorbell. I thought it was cool when it worked, now I'm running through my head thinking why did I update? Always expecting the next update to allow for refreshed screenshots, but that's not nearly as necessary as having the live stream working!

[schliemann]

No need for people writing that streaming doesn't work on 1.0.6. We are aware. It was decided to fix the devices not found issue, since it would eventually affect everyone.

Hi everyone

Something strange today on my side

I jsut installed Hombridge and this hombridge-eufy-security plugin. The first time I launched the video in iOS Home application, the video stream was playing But next time I tried it didn't play anymore.

A trail...

On my side I looked what @bcblur was talking about

I have this, also. Looks to be because we have unquoted parens in the command line: Then I found the previous version of the line and found filters.push('scale=\'trunc(iw/2)*2\':\'trunc(ih/2)*2\''); // Force to fit encoder restrictions ( in src/accessories/streamingDelegate.ts previously at line 178 here : 87217bf#diff-daa22098f16864aa4ded78d7957e2baaf5b1263c7e4a14d2f07a0bcb46c14c23 )

... that failed ?

@Deshmir, I'd like to know if that's what you exactly tried

I tried the change that @bcblur suggested, but then it crashes. Moved the ‘ a bit back and forth, but no luck And I would like to know if this previous version should be the solution

The solution ?

So correct current : filters.push('scale=trunc(iw/2)*2:trunc(ih/2)*2'); // Force to fit encoder restrictions to previous : filters.push('scale=\'trunc(iw/2)*2\':\'trunc(ih/2)*2\''); // Force to fit encoder restrictions

tried this with no success. i modified the streamingdelegate.js file with this, restarted homebridge service but still getting the same error

[eulisef]

enabled debug mode and here is the extract for both cases (first when opening Home App when a snapshot is requested and then when trying to load livestream):

i redacted the logs and removed the snapshot URL and the IP addresses..... but i noticed that the snapshot URL does not change. when i open a browser and go to that site it has a really old snapshot JPG file..... maybe there is an issue in the fact that snapshot URLs are not being updated so it always uses the same 'cached' one?

[taaa22]

Dear @samemory @lenoxys @schliemann Thanks for the awesome plug-in. I don't know if you are aware or not, the plug-in has steaming issue. Any update or fix is coming soon?

[AppleNips]

I am having the same issue.

[aklausing]

The same issue here. HomeBridge in docker. Also tried to move back to an older version of the container image. No chance. Stream isn't working with 1.0.6 ... plugin is crashing with 1.1.1 beta.

Yes to everything you said, same here.

[chazeon]

The streaming URL cannot be resolved. See there is nothing after ffmpeg -i. This is related to an upstream issue. See https://github.com/bropat/eufy-security-client/issues/79 for workaround etc.

confirmed for me. comment out line 47 in node_modules/homebridge-eufy-security/node_modules/eufy-security-client/build/http/api.js

i'm using it with my other patches above. didn't bother backing out my changes.
