RTSP stream not connecting

[jwill2385]

Hello, I am using a Wyze Cam V3 with RTSP. I have verified the RTSP stream link works with both VLC media player and FFMPEG

I am trying to run Viseron with Docker-compose on a raspberry pi 4+. I can successfully load viseron from my local host however my camera view just keeps spinning indefinitely.

I am getting a Error [Tornado.access] -500 Get /api/v1/camera/camera_1/snapshot?rand=krqbt&width=638 (172.18.0.1)

any suggestions? Here is my config.yaml file. I think it may have something to do with the stream_format and making sure its showing rtsp and not mjpeg-stream `ffmpeg: camera: camera_1: name: test_camera host: !secret test_cam_ip path: /live port: 554 username: !secret username password: !secret password stream_format: rtsp fps: 6 width: 1920 height: 1080 codec: h264 audio_codec: null

Sorry my code snippet did not format correctly. Here is my config.yaml

ffmpeg:
  camera:
    camera_1:
      name: test_cam
      host: !secret test_cam_ip
      path: /live
      port: 554

Any errors in the log? Your darknet section is over indented, it should not reside under ffmpeg

[jwill2385]

@roflcoopter yes sorry I manually typed in the code snippet the indentation was correct on the actual config file. I also have commented out the darknet section and am still getting errrors with loading the video. the wheel just keeps spinning. Heres the new config file in full:

When I click on the live view button interesting enough it goes to a /mjpeg-stream endpoint and says Camera camera_1 not found Here are the logs of the error.

[roflcoopter]

The first error is because you need to have at least one object detector or motion detector configured. Can you enable at least one, then restart and send the logs please? The 500 on GET of snapshot is because the setup failed for some reason

[jwill2385]

@roflcoopter Yes I tried enabling both the object dector and motion dector, just the object detector, and just the motion detector with no luck. Here is the config file for just mog

I am still getting the failed to setup error at least one object or motion detector has to be configured.

I need to see the entire log from the start to be able to understand what's going on, can you try piping it to a file and attach it here?

[jwill2385]

error_log.txt Ok I just attached the error logs. The most recent are from 01-04-2024 (Today). These logs correspond to the config file where darknet is enabled but the mog1 is commented out.

Looks like the error is FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/detectors/models/darknet/coco.names' Do I need to install darknet on my raspberry pi and store the coco names file in my viseron docker folder?

[roflcoopter]

I think thats en error on my part actually, that the file /detectors/models/darknet/coco.names is missing for the Raspberry Pi image. You dont need to install Darknet on your Pi since it is included in the image.

I need to make a fix so that the file is properly included.

In the meantime you can copy the file to your config folder by following these steps:

1. Copy the contents of this file: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AlexeyAB/darknet/master/cfg/coco.names to your Viseron config folder in a file called coco.names
2. Update your darknet config section and add label_path: /config/coco.names
