Wyze v2 uses wrong device nodes in Go2RTC

Open reidprichard opened this issue 5 months ago • 4 comments

I just installed on a Wyze v2 (have had it running on three v3s) and found the RTSP streams didn't work. After a bit of digging, I found that the device nodes in the Go2RTC config were set to the defaults of /dev/video1 and /dev/video2 (1080p and 360p, respectively) rather than /dev/video6 and /dev/video7 as the comment in the Go2RTC config helpfully stated. Fixing the nodes got everything working.

I'm not sure if it's possible to auto-detect the device type and set the nodes in the Go2RTC config accordingly. If it's not, perhaps a note in the docs stating that this change is necessary for the v2?

I think it's commented somewhere here but for v2 and pan v1 cams, you'll have to go update the go2rtc config in wz_mini\etc\go2rtc. You can manually change them to video6/7 there.

Ahh, I see that now. Would it be easy to add a go2rtc config item to select camera type and update this behind the scenes? Or maybe I'm the only one using the v2 and it's not worth the trouble. At any rate, hopefully this issue makes the solution more googleable.
