Relevant log output

I see allways an old screen picture from 2 weeks ago.

After I restart the cam I see a short time the eufy logo, the screen picture is updating to the actual time and
date and after 30 seconds falling back to this old picture.

Everything is ok in the eufy app selv. Cant see any picture or video in VLC. But at the time of setting up
the plugin, I was able to. I haven't changed anything since then. Read the "Common Issues page"?
Before using the command "sudo npm i ffmpeg-for-homebridge -g" what does it make?

Did you check this Common Issues pages ?

@permaMonk That is unfortunately how the plugin works currently. The beta can provide a real snapshot. However currently the beta also only supports 30 seconds of streaming.

OK, understood. Thanks again for this clear description of the current situation and the outlook for the coming version. You had already explained that in several posts before, but I hadn't understood it yet. Sorry for the repeated request.

@permaMonk No problem :)
