[Config Support]: can't get H265 stream correctly #16134
-
Describe the problem you are havingI installed Frigate via Docker on a NUC with an N100 processor and Debian 12 OS. Specifically, I’m testing a Reolink Duo 2 camera that offers both an H265 high-resolution stream and an H264 low-resolution stream. The issues:
I'm not sure this is really an issue related to Frigate itself, but any advice would be very appreciated! At the moment, I’m not interested in object detection—I’d just like to get live viewing and recording working properly. Version0.14.1-f4f3cfa Frigate config filemqtt:

This might be an issue with the reolink stream directly where the browser is failing to playback. You can use |

Yes, I understand that it would be inefficient. What do you mean by using go2rtc? Can you point me to an example configuration? Adding the "video=h264" should do the trick, but I get an ""[rtsp] error="streams: wrong response on DESCRIBE" message, suggesting that the rtsp address is wrong |

My fault! It actually works, but it needs several time to load the recordings. I suppose it is because the file is very large in h264 codec, so I need to optimize it. Actually, at the moment I just save the stream without resampling. |

Do you mind posting your final solution if you have one please? I've ran Frigate for the last year with my duo2 without problem but since upgrading to the latest beta I'm having issues. I've changed the hardware accel settings as per the release notes and can see the duo 2 live feed without issue but it won't load when I try to view history, just an infinite loading wheel. Significantly more errors in the logs too for the camera. No problems with the Reolink poe doorbell or other random eufy cam since upgrading. |

Sure. My config is the one at opening post; I only changed the connection string under go2rtc section I downscaled the video to improve performance (original stream was 4096*1539); I don't see any error in the logs at the moment; anyway, I'm very new to Frigate so there's space for improvement for sue. |
