RTSP camera not working
I have MotionEye installed in HomeAssistant OS and got one rtsp camera working. I have a second identical camera that I added the same way, but that cam only shows a grey picture. The rtsp stream is accessible in Celluloid app on my Linux Mint laptop. Also, the HA built in generic camera stream works for this cam. I removed the cam several times, restarted the addon and HomeAssistant and then re-added the cam with the same result. Any help is appreciated.
Here’s the system info: Add-on version: 0.21.0 You are running the latest version of this add-on. System: Home Assistant OS 15.2 (amd64 / qemux86-64) Home Assistant Core: 2025.4.4 Home Assistant Supervisor: 2025.04.0
Did you try to temporarily remove the 1st camera and see whether this enables the 2nd to show a picture? motionEye is not exactly resource friendly, in general when video processing is not hardware-accelerated, and for network cameras additional as of concurrent inbound and outbound network streams, when resolution is somewhat higher.
Other than that, not sure how to debug the HA addon, I guess there are logs accessible from within the HA web UI..
Hi for the camera with grey picture try to change the video resolution for this camera (video device,video resolution,save) also check your rtsp link on vlc to ensure that your stream is working
