I get the same error with my Reolink 422 using rtsp. This is running Homebridge 1.4 on a Synology NAS. Previously used the ffmpeg plugin without any issues.

[t1dals]

This issue is still present in 5.0.12

@t1dals

can you type following in your terminal pls

ffmpeg -y -i rtsp://192.168.50.155:554/live/stream0 -vframes 1 test.jpg

Does it work?

As you can see this is not related to camera.ui

can you post your full config.json pls

@t1dals

Which os?

[t1dals]

Synology DSM 7.0.1-42218 Update 2

[t1dals]

I looks like my ffmpeg is out of date.

What version do you recommend?

I did have some errors within Homebridge loading the camera.ui that might have been related to ffmpeg

No issues with v4.3 so far

[t1dals]

I have 4.3.3 installed but now have this issue.

August: Can not determine stream codecs, probe timed out

I've tried for video the copy, h264_omx and h264_videotoolbox

That means ffmpeg could not connect to your camera within 5 seconds to determine the stream codecs, it has nothing to do with vcodec in the config

does the command work now?

ffmpeg -y -i rtsp://192.168.50.155:554/live/stream0 -vframes 1 test.jpg

[t1dals]

It does not. It's clearly an ffmpeg issue that I need to research. Thanks for the help. I'll close this if you have nothing else to add.

Allright 👍

[FezVrasta]

For anyone interested, installing ffmpeg from opkg fixed this issue. You just need to point camera.ui to the /opt/bin/ffmpeg path
