Screen Tearing on high resolution rtsp feeds

Open jared-bloomer opened this issue 4 years ago • 10 comments

I am using Reolink RLC-410-5MP cameras. The low resolution feeds work fine, but if I try to use High resolution feeds the image tearing is unviewable.

Looking in /var/log/syslog I see the following when it tries to play a low resolution stream (rtsp://username:[email protected]:554/h264Preview_01_sub)

However, when attempting to play a high resolution stream (rtsp://username:[email protected]:554/h264Preview_01_main) I see

Any idea if there is currently a fix for this? Am I just missing something?

Try increasing https://github.com/SvenVD/rpisurv/blob/b60cb27f3b32af48f21fbca4e5292ed2f874038e/surveillance/conf/display1.yml#L98 Or try enabling https://github.com/SvenVD/rpisurv/blob/b60cb27f3b32af48f21fbca4e5292ed2f874038e/surveillance/conf/display1.yml#L95 or try passing "--rtsp-frame-buffer-size=500000" in https://github.com/SvenVD/rpisurv/blob/b60cb27f3b32af48f21fbca4e5292ed2f874038e/surveillance/conf/display1.yml#L103

It is a little bit of trail and error to see what works in you situation

So enabling rstp_over_tcp did not work. Already tried that. Doing network caching of 500ms didn't help either. Guess I could try a higher value. I have not tried --rtsp-frame-buffer-size=500000 yet, but I will definitely try and comment the results when I get a chance. Thanks for the guidance.

No joy.

This is what the stream looks like on a rpi4 20220408_192629

jared-bloomer avatar Apr 08 '22 23:04 jared-bloomer

This is the config for that camera

    - camera_streams:
        - url: "rtsp://username:[email protected]:554/h264Preview_01_main" #FrontYard
      network_caching_ms: 800
      rtsp_over_tcp: true
      freeform_advanced_vlc_options: "--rtsp-frame-buffer-size=500000"

jared-bloomer avatar Apr 08 '22 23:04 jared-bloomer

Then I am out of options, I suggest to contact the VLC developers

SvenVD avatar Apr 08 '22 23:04 SvenVD

I've seen occasionally seen similar on some 4&8MP cameras, but never worked out exactly what causes it. Are you using a 16:9 resolution on the camera? (e.g 2560x1440), also maybe try a higher network cache.

ChrisH861 avatar Apr 08 '22 23:04 ChrisH861

Yes I am using 16:9 ratio at a resolution of 2304x1296 @10fps with a max bitrate of 6144kbps

Any update?

None on my end. It'd still borked

I have the same problem. I need to use the lower resolution rtsp stream offered by unifi
