https://github.com/legotheboss/homebridge-camera-ffmpeg-omx (and pretty much any camera plugin) would likely require ffmpeg.

Any chance this could get a pi release with this ffmpeg optimized for raspberry pi? https://github.com/legotheboss/YouTube-files/raw/master/ffmpeg_3.1.4-1_armhf.deb

I've not had success getting that to work. #62 (comment)

I didn't have a real rstp stream to test with, so it might work for you.

My docker-compose.yml:

  • Use debian stretch variant of this image
  • Pass-thru /dev/vchiq device
  • Privileged mode
version: '2'
services:
  homebridge:
    image: oznu/homebridge:debian-raspberry-pi
    restart: always
    network_mode: host
    privileged: true
    devices:
      - /dev/vchiq:/dev/vchiq
    volumes:
      - ./config:/homebridge
    environment:
      - PGID=1000
      - PUID=1000
      - HOMEBRIDGE_CONFIG_UI=1
      - HOMEBRIDGE_CONFIG_UI_PORT=8080
docker-compose up -d

Then edit the startup.sh file that gets created in the config directory.

You can also edit the startup.sh file using the config-ui-x plugin (Docker Menu Icon > Startup Script).

Add this to the bottom:

. /etc/os-release

if [ "$ID" = "debian" ]; then
  [ -f /homebridge/ffmpeg.deb ] || wget goo.gl/gMGA81 -O ffmpeg.deb
  [ -e /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg ] || dpkg -i ffmpeg.deb
  usermod -aG video abc
fi

Then restart the entire container

docker-compose restart homebridge

or in the config-ui-x plugin: Docker Menu Icon > Restart Container.

Then install the homebridge-camera-ffmpeg-omx plugin and configure as you normally would.

As I said, I have not been able to get this to work, but I suspect it may be because I was using a sample rstp stream I found on the internet. If this works for you please let me know.

As a sanity check: is homebridge running as abc in the container? Or root?

Homebridge runs as abc. If you want to run it as root set the PGID and PUID variables to 0.

yeah... it took me WAY too long to realize you had a debian-pi container... 😄

thanks for shepherding this newb. i definitely had it running outside a container before, so ill keep this thread updated.

Hi, when I want to use ffmpeg on my version I run apk add --no-cache ffmpeg ffmpeg-libs. When I enable audio I receive the following error:

Is there an easy way to enable lidfdk_aac, sorry I'm not really familiar with Linux., is there an easy way to add libfdk_acc and enable it in the conifg?

As a side note. Got this running in the container. So now I’m just trying out different plugins. The multi-stream seems promising.

And yap. Definitely did not run the Alpine version. The Debian seems the best pick for raspberry pi. Don’t ask me why 😉

Good to hear you got it working @drewcovi. Were the instructions I posted above all that was required to get the omx version running?

@Itsmmai @Jeff146 - Your issue is different I think.

I've got a cheap Xiaomi camera enroute, once it arrives I'll be able to write up a definitive how-to guide on ffmpeg and this docker image.

@Jeff146 - The suggestion above won't work. ffmpeg needs to be compiled with aac support.

Jeff146 commented Mar 20, 2018

@oznu Ok thanks looking forward to it. I got the video to load but the audio I get the exit code of 1. I'm thinking because the docker image doesn't have libfdk_aac and it's not included in the ffmpeg and that's why it's not working for us.

oznu commented Mar 20, 2018

Yeah, the homebridge-camera-ffmpeg repo says this:

To use audio ffmpeg must be compiled with --enable-libfdk-aac

Neither debian or alpine linux provide ffmpeg with this flag as part of their default repos.

@Itsmmai - if you run ffmpeg inside the container, what is the output?

If you're still using homebridge-config-ui-x you can access the container terminal by clicking Docker Menu > Terminal.

If the --enable-libfdk-aac flag is not show please try running these two command again manually:

apk del ffmpeg ffmpeg-libs
apk --allow-untrusted add --no-cache --repository http://alpine.dl.oz.nu/ffmpeg ffmpeg ffmpeg-libs

Make sure you're running the latest version of this image as well, the update I pushed 10 days ago fixed some issues installing ffmpeg.

Itsmmai commented Mar 25, 2018

Reloading the latest docker file did the trick. So now it works. My only problem now is that the recordings/video are not smooth and stops after a couple of seconds. But that is not your problem :-)

@oznu Hi, I've used your compiled address to run successfully in the docker container homebridge sh command. Do I want to install homebridge-camera-ffmpeg-omx or homebridge-camera-ffmpeg again next, do you need to install the 2 plug-ins?

Hi @1043717432 ,

The homebridge-camera-ffmpeg plugin seems to do everything the homebridge-camera-ffmpeg-omx version does just by setting the vcodec to h264_omx.

From the readme:

vcodec If you're running on a RPi with the omx version of ffmpeg installed, you can change to the hardware accelerated video codec with this option, default "libx264"

https://github.com/KhaosT/homebridge-camera-ffmpeg

I would start by just trying to get the homebridge-camera-ffmpeg plugin working as it's well maintained.

Did you guys manage to build the ffmpeg with omx on alpine or only use the debian package from someone else?

This is what I got so far:

FROM oznu/homebridge:raspberry-pi

RUN apk --update add build-base automake autoconf libtool
RUN curl -s https://codeload.github.com/felipec/libomxil-bellagio/tar.gz/0.9.1 \

  && ./configure \
  && make && make install

RUN curl -Ls https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/archive/n4.0.tar.gz \

RUN cd /tmp/FFmpeg* \
  && ./configure --arch=armel --target-os=linux --enable-gpl --enable-omx --enable-omx-rpi --enable-nonfree \

I'd like to eventually include a build of ffmpeg that includes --enable-libfdk-aac for all architectures and --enable-omx --enable-omx-rpi for arm builds. The problem I currently face is the lack of any free continuous integration providers with native aarch64 support.

The current arm builds are done using Travis CI + QEMU and are already getting very close to 50 minute maximum job runtime allowed (QEMU is slow). Adding ffmpeg to the build would more than certainly push this over that limit causing the jobs to fail.

which is a better setup to run FFmpeg, Alpine or Debian container?

FFmpeg or FFmpeg OMX?

Currently have FFmpeg setup in an Alpine container, very slow on RPI3... #42

ffmpeg with omx should speed things up when running on a rPI. Operating system shouldn't matter. I haven't tested if this works in practice inside the docker container yet.

I manage to follow your instructions and got it working on a Debian build container in a Raspberry Pi3. The still stream works with an update at every 12 seconds, however, live streaming doesn't.

I got a camera to test this with a month or two back.

I have spent many hours compiling ffmpeg on a rPi 3 with the different options, including --enable-omx --enable-omx-rpi, none of these seem help the performance of the stream when running inside the docker container. As @jeylites mentioned, live steaming won't work at all when trying to use the h264_omx vcodec.

I think the solution here is, if you need omx support, then you'll need to run homebridge natively.

running inside or outside of docker doesn't make a difference. You can run with h264_omx codec, I had problems with ffmpeg not finding keyframes which was fixed with something like:

v4l2-ctl --set-ctrl=h264_i_frame_period=1
v4l2-ctl --set-ctrl=repeat_sequence_header=1

Tricky part for me was to be able to compile it for alpine, and a solution for not having to run with privileged permissions (in kubernetes)

How do you go about doing your way? I don’t mind trying since I have the rig setup up.

Just wondering, has anyone tried the VLC approach, replacement to ffmpeg?

sorry for the noob question...I'm not sure what I should be doing here, appreciate if you explain a little in-depth as I'm not very experienced in this regards :)

@oznu
After testing the docker ffmpeg setup and I was unable to get the stream to work so I decided to move back to homebridge natively compiled. Everything worked until I had "systemd" going. The stream couldn't be reached after "systemd" enabled, It wroked right after disabling it.

I'm not sure if your docker build is using "systemd" but if you have some time to verify the findings, it will be a great leap.

On another note, Snapshot refreshes every 11seconds on a docker build, while 60 seconds on homebridge native on cell network.

On wifi 10-11 sec for both build...

After a lot of messing around as all pre-build packages don't support fdk-aac (libaac), and the package linked above doesn't work either unfortunately, I manually compiled with the following commands (first get the latest ffmpeg build from their site (https://www.ffmpeg.org/download.html) and unpack it in your alpine docker). It might be backwards or a stupid way of going about it, but I was toying around and this worked hehe. So for anyone who needs it to have audio support on their FFMPEG camera stream, here's the commands I ran from the unpacked ffmpeg folder:

apk add yasm gnutls gnutls-dev gcc lame lame-dev opus opus-dev libtheora libtheora-dev libass libass-dev libvorbis libvorbis-dev libvpx libvpx-dev x265 x265-dev x264 x264-dev xvidcore xvidcore-dev v4l-utils-libs libxcb libxcb-dev v4l-utils-dev libva libva-dev libvdpau libvdpau-dev
apk add fdk-aac fdk-aac-dev --update-cache --repository http://dl-3.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/testing/ --allow-untrusted
./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-avresample --enable-avfilter --enable-gnutls --enable-gpl --enable-libass --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libvorbis --enable-libvpx --enable-libxvid --enable-libx264 --enable-libx265 --enable-libtheora --enable-libv4l2 --enable-postproc --enable-pic --enable-pthreads --enable-shared --enable-libxcb --disable-stripping --disable-static --disable-librtmp --enable-vaapi --enable-vdpau --enable-libopus --disable-debug --enable-libfdk-aac --enable-nonfree
make
make install

And there you have it, audio can now be set to true.

I was encountering this issue myself, running an alpine docker-homebridge based image on Synology. To resolve the issue I built a new docker image based on oznu/docker-homebridge with FFmpeg copied from alfg/ffmpeg.

See https://hub.docker.com/r/nicholasrobinson/ffmpeg-homebridge or https://www.github.com/nicholasrobinson/ffmpeg-homebridge for more details. To get the fix on Synology, just stop your existing homebridge container and replace it with nicholasrobinson/ffmpeg-homebridge.

@oznu

I've got a cheap Xiaomi camera enroute, once it arrives I'll be able to write up a definitive how-to guide on ffmpeg and this docker image.

I have spent many hours compiling ffmpeg on a rPi 3 with the different options, including --enable-omx --enable-omx-rpi, none of these seem help the performance of the stream when running inside the docker container. As @jeylites mentioned, live steaming won't work at all when trying to use the h264_omx vcodec.

I think the solution here is, if you need omx support, then you'll need to run homebridge natively.

There is a good working solution to run ffmpeg in Docker with almost no performance impact - use stream copy without re-encoding (Xiaomi streams in H264, so can be easily viewed on Apple devices without it):

Alternatively you can use the version I just compiled:

Will you be so kind to provide the updated version of ffmpeg with aac support?

I would like to try out your version. Can you please send me the instruction link? Thank you.

@Itsmmai - if you run ffmpeg inside the container, what is the output?

If you're still using homebridge-config-ui-x you can access the container terminal by clicking Docker Menu > Terminal.

If the --enable-libfdk-aac flag is not show please try running these two command again manually:

apk del ffmpeg ffmpeg-libs
apk --allow-untrusted add --no-cache --repository http://alpine.dl.oz.nu/ffmpeg ffmpeg ffmpeg-libs

Make sure you're running the latest version of this image as well, the update I pushed 10 days ago fixed some issues installing ffmpeg.

I tried these steps but am not getting --enable-libfdk-aac

After a lot of messing around as all pre-build packages don't support fdk-aac (libaac), and the package linked above doesn't work either unfortunately, I manually compiled with the following commands (first get the latest ffmpeg build from their site and unpack it in your alpine docker). It might be backwards or a stupid way of going about it, but I was toying around and this worked hehe. So for anyone who needs it to have audio support on their FFMPEG camera stream, here's the commands I ran from the unpacked ffmpeg folder:

Thanks this worked for me.

This worked for me. Thank you!!

Note: careful with the copy/paste of the super long ./configure command; it's one command with a lot of arguments, not multiple commands.

@Jeff146, it would require compiling it yourself. On a low powered synology unit that could take a while.

Alternatively you can use the version I just compiled:

apk del ffmpeg ffmpeg-libs
apk --allow-untrusted add --no-cache --repository http://alpine.dl.oz.nu/ffmpeg ffmpeg ffmpeg-libs

Can you let me know if that works?

This version is identical to the official version but compiled with the --enable-libfdk-aac and --enable-omx-rpi (armhf version only) flags.

@oznu I am getting the following error. Is the repository still available?

Sorry doesn't work for me but maybe because I'm on a NUC and not on a PI ?

Good news.

ffmpeg, with libfdk-aac audio support, is now included in this image.

That is great but what if it still isn't working :-( ... I'm using a Intel NUC and the ozone docker :-(

@Itsmmai It won't be able to find configure if you haven't downloaded ffmpeg yet.
The commands I posted in #82 (comment) assume you have downloaded and unpacked the ffmpeg source from their website first. So get https://ffmpeg.org/releases/ffmpeg-4.2.2.tar.bz2 (or whatever the latest version is on their website) then unpack it, open the folder and then you can run all the commands posted in my comment and it should build. No idea if it works on NUC/ozone, but you can give it a spin.
