[Support]: How to connect http video stream to frigate (green screen) #2673
Comments
|
Are you able to view the stream in VLC? |
|
Thank you for your quick response. I copied http://admin:500686@192.168.13.205/videostream.cgi to VLC and immediately got the camera's stream |

Ffprobe shows that your camera provides an mjpeg stream. https://docs.frigate.video/configuration/camera_specific#mjpeg-cameras |

Hi Blake,
thank you for your hints. I've modified the config.yml accordingly.
While still showing the green screen, this is working so far:`mqtt:

What else could I do now? Thank you in advance.

Hi Blake, Since connecting mjpeg cameras seems to be interesting for several people I am still working on a sultion that is based on a different approach: The conversion of the video stream needs not neccessarily be done with ffmpeg within frigate. I am currently close to a solution based on v4l2server. Only the mapping from the real video port (USB) to a virtual video device is still missing, since v4l2loopback is not running properly yet. If you are interested I will keep you updated on this. Best |

Describe the problem you are having
I'm running frigate in docker on a coral dev board (mendel linux). The camera I have (Elro or Smartwares C903IP.2) provides the video stream on http://user:pw@/videostream.cgi. The problem is, I am not able to visualise the stream in frigate and I can only see the green screen. I read through the issues related to green screen but I am not able to resolve the problem on my own.
This is the docker command I start frigate with:
docker run -d --name frigate --restart=unless-stopped --mount type=tmpfs,target=/tmp/cache,tmpfs-size=1000000000 --device /dev/apex_0:/dev/apex_0 --shm-size=64m -v /home/mendel/frigate:/media/frigate -v /home/mendel/docker/config.yml:/config/config.yml:ro -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro -e FRIGATE_RTSP_PASSWORD='' -p 5000:5000 -p 1935:1935 blakeblackshear/frigate:stable-aarch64Version
