The line above is generating an error with the loglevel, enabling debug in homebridge i saw this :

ffmpeg -i rtsp://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:554/onvif1 -an -sn -dn -codec:v libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p -color_range mpeg -r 15 -f rawvideo -preset ultrafast -tune zerolatency -filter:v scale='min(1920,iw)':'min(1080,ih)':force_original_aspect_ratio=decrease,

and changing character by character I discovered the issues comes from the scale parameter. I changed

I changed: resInfo.resizeFilter = 'scale=' + (resInfo.width > 0 ? '\'min(' + resInfo.width + ',iw)\'' : 'iw') + ':' + (resInfo.height > 0 ? '\'min(' + resInfo.height + ',ih)\'' : 'ih') + ':force_original_aspect_ratio=decrease'; to (I put the double quote marks): resInfo.resizeFilter = '"scale=' + (resInfo.width > 0 ? '\'min(' + resInfo.width + ',iw)\'' : 'iw') + ':' + (resInfo.height > 0 ? '\'min(' + resInfo.height + ',ih)\'' : 'ih') + ':force_original_aspect_ratio=decrease"';

and now works like a charm.

Hi Trigal,

It seems I have a similar issue with my August Doorbell Cam Pro 2: I'm getting a similar error message " FFmpeg exited with code: 1 and signal: null (Error)".

Appreciate it if you pls check the details below as per case #1324 and recommend any changes in my code below.

P.S. I'm not a basic user and trying to learn some coding skills, much appreciated :)

=================================================== Upgraded to the latest Homebridge UI - homebridge-config-ui-x v4.50.0 but the issue persists!

My current configuration is as below as per the recommended standard config on this site:

Hi @yasserabdalla ,

from your log it seems exactly the same issue I had with my system, it was not that doorbell but we are both trying to create a homekit camera with this platform.

This is my config:

{ "name": "Camera FFmpeg", "usermqtt": "xxxxx", "passmqtt": "xxxxx", "cameras": [ { "name": "XXXXXXX", "unbridge": true, "videoConfig": { "source": "-i rtsp://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:554/onvif2", "maxWidth": 0, "maxHeight": 0, "maxFPS": 15, "vcodec": "libx264", "audio": false, "debug": false } } ], "_bridge": { "username": "xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx", "port": 33337 }, "platform": "Camera-ffmpeg" }

but if the case is the same as mine, there's nothing wrong with the configuration, but with the software itself, you should change streamingDelegate.ts , editing the line I wrote in my previous post. If you want to debug as I did, try changing the value of "debug": false to "debug": true and look at the logs in homebridge, click on the square wave button, you'll see the line that is causing that error. Then you can open a terminal and paste the exact line to see if the same error occurs and try to identify what's wrong. Feel free to copy-paste here the text, I'll try to help you.

But ... first: can you see the image using VLC and opening the rtsp://[email protected]:[email protected]/live/stream stream?

I'm writing this because I read your username and it contains a @ character .. and I really thing this can create troubles, maybe you should escape that symbol .. who knows :-) check it out!

Bests, Augusto

[yasserabdalla]

Much appreciated, Augusto,

Yes, VLC can stream my August Camera clearly with video and sound, using either of the 2 user IDs "[email protected]" or "4169880226" however, I already changed the user ID to the latter one as suggested.

Also, I updated the file " streamingDelegate.js" as suggested, it ends with js in my case (not ts) :

resInfo.snapFilter = filters.join(','); if ((noneFilter < 0) && (resInfo.width > 0 || resInfo.height > 0)) { resInfo.resizeFilter = '"scale=' + (resInfo.width > 0 ? ''min(' + resInfo.width + ',iw)'' : 'iw') + ':' + (resInfo.height > 0 ? ''min(' + resInfo.height + ',ih)'' : 'ih') + ':force_original_aspect_ratio=decrease"'; filters.push(resInfo.resizeFilter); filters.push('scale=trunc(iw/2)*2:trunc(ih/2)*2');

Also, enabled the debugging, pls see below a copy with the following error:

[7/19/2022, 7:08:53 PM] [Camera FFmpeg] [DoorBellCam] [error] Unrecognized option 'srtp_out_suite'.
