Describe the issue

I have a stream from the netatmo camera (http://192.168.1.22/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/live/files/high/index.m3u8). This is read out with ffmpeg.
I have tried both Docker and Ubuntu. In both cases, after a certain time, the stream is no longer transmitted and the error message appears.
The clients are: Surveillance Station from Synology and Home Assistant.
Restarting the rtsp-simple-server only helps for a short time.

Config:

 paths:
      cam:
       runOnInit: ffmpeg -i http://192.168.1.22/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/live/files/high/index.m3u8 -c:v copy -f rtsp tsp://localhost:$RTSP_PORT/$RTSP_PATH
       runOnInitRestart: yes

Hello, in my opinion FFmpeg is not receiving and / or converting the stream from HLS to RTSP correctly.

This can be caused by different reasons:

• maybe the stream can't be received correctly
• maybe the stream can't be remuxed into RTSP

In my opinion, you have to:

• try ffmpeg manually without using runOnInit and check whether there's any error
• try disabling the audio track; from my experience, HLS audio codecs are often incompatible with RTSP:

  runOnInit: ffmpeg -i http://192.168.1.22/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/live/files/high/index.m3u8 -map 0:v:0 -c:v copy -f rtsp tsp://localhost:8554/cam

In your post, there is a typo in what I assume should be a rtsp url. You have written tsp://, rather than rtsp://.

This discussion has become a collection of unrelated problems. This server works by serving different streams into different paths. The error "no one is publishing to path 'XXX'" means that you're trying to read path "XXX" but no one is publishing anything inside it.
