Codec not supported for eufy camera to chromecast

Open atv2016 opened this issue 2 years ago • 7 comments

It runs fine within HA as webrtc but once I use dashcast I get this on the chromecast.

woukd be great to get a fix for this if possible, I would be eternally grateful. 9FA87A27-02D2-4784-85E2-C4B6668375B5

Which is weird as the Google chromecast page says it supports it:

H.264 level 4.0 high AAC aac_he video/mp4; codecs="avc1.640028, mp4a.40.5"
aac_lc video/mp4; codecs="avc1.640028, mp4a.40

Maybe this should be posted in Dashcast repo as well.

What Chromecast model do you have? avc1.64002a => H.264 level 4.2 => Chromecast 1st and 2nd Gen up to level 4.1...

I have changed all my chrome casts to V1 only, it works perfectly on that. I had the latest version, Chromecast 3 but i returned it because of this for now.

@atv2016 so your camera has a very high H264 profile. Old Chromecasts doesn't support it

You can use transcoding feature from go2rtc app. This component use it from v3

So how do I transcode? My rtsp streams to chromecast are not showing, I suppose I have to transcode from h265 to 264?

You can read go2rtc docs

So do I install this go2rtc separately in HA?

You can try with built-in go2rtc. But I don't know if hardware acceleration will work.
