Constant Pausing and Reconnect Request
Within the last week or so WebRTC has been constantly pausing and playing and eventually disconnecting altogether asking to reconnect. I am running HA core-2021.7.4 and have tried deleting the integration and reinstalling it. Below is the basic card configuration that I am using. This is a LAN to LAN connect, so I am not hopping out and coming back in. though that should not matter, and I am pulling Low (480x360) from the source.
type: custom:webrtc-camera url: rtsp://192.168.1.1:7447/blah,blah,blah title: Door Bell background: true
Please advise and thank you.
Same Problem here. Stream plays without problems in VLC but via WebRTC constantly pausing and reconnecting. It worked very well for two days. I think Homeassistent made an Update but i am not sure.
Same problem here, except appearing only in FullyKiosk browser on amazon fire tablet. (settings: webrtc: false mse: true) HA version: core-2021.8.5 (but the problem also appeared in previous versions)
Not sure if this will help anyone. I decided to wipe the tablet that I was using as an HA Panel and clean install the HA app for Android. Thus far the reconnect requests and pausing have stop. I did try resetting the HA app first before the wipe but that did not help, so I went full nuclear. I do run on the 5Ghz band for WiFi and the tablet is relatively close to the AP so I should not suspect any delays in the video streams.
I will monitor this and it I see the issue returns I will chime back in here with any findings.
After updating to latest version of the component and latest version of home assistant, i'm getting the frequent reconnection issue too. I have another installation running latest HA but with version 1.4 WebRTC, it takes longer to connect but after connect it is stable
It appears that this issue has returned. Did another full wipe and this time this issue remained where before it seemed to have resolve the issue for a period of time. HA does not let me go back to version 1.4 of WebRTC, can only go back to 2.0.0.
zeliant, would mind sharing your WebRTC tile configuration? Mine is below.

My config is the same as yours.
You can go back to 1.4 by manually downloading the component and put inside custom_components folder.
I have since switched back to the latest version 2.1.1. I narrowed my problem down to local and external access. Somehow WebRTC cannot connect when i'm in local but I am able to connect farily quickly using WebRTC when i'm using external connection on my mobile. I gonna do a whole network reset of my router and all the switches to see if I can solve my problem.
FYI only: Same problem here, but only on PC client with chrome or Edge. No problem on Raspi4 where HA is running. Here the live video is perfectly stable.
I'm running also Frigate NVR. When I stop the NVR part of Frigate (only live view remaining) everything is stable. So I think its a Frigate NVR problem.
Check my new project. Maybe it handle this situation https://github.com/AlexxIT/go2rtc
