Failed to start WebRTC stream: webrtc

[denisvarga]

When i start stream of my camera, it goes well, and after like 10s it gives me this error

Failed to start WebRTC stream: webrtc: streams: exec/rtsp [rtsp @ 0x7f79080000] method DESCRIBE failed: 404 Not Found [in#0 @ 0x7f79412b00] Error opening input: Server returned 404 Not Found Error opening input file rtsp://127.0.0.1:18554/camera.nvr2_main_orginal?audio.

I have the same issue. Trying to resolve it in a proper way.

Same for me

I've found that if you disable the RTSP over TLS and this will get the streams going again. Not ideal but a work around for the interim until the RTSP over TLS is fixed. This was on the dahua nvr buried in the settings

Aww man this sucks. I strange because I can connect some cameras to view live but most show the picture and update when motion is detected but it wont show live I get the same error.

I'm having trouble reproducing this. Not sure if it's something with the latest update of HA or something else. Do you have any repro steps?

I think this did happen on the latest update. My error is a little different and complains about the URL markup:
Failed to start WebRTC stream: webrtc: streams: parse "rtsp://[[my username]]:[[my password here with special characters]]@192.168.100.250:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=0": invalid port ":[[my password here with special characters]]" after host, exec/rtsp [rtsp @ 0x7f632dbe0000] method DESCRIBE failed: 404 Not Found [in#0 @ 0x7f632de12c00] Error opening input: Server returned 404 Not Found Error opening input file rtsp://127.0.0.1:18554/camera.nvr_main?audio&source=ffmpeg:camera.nvr_main%23audio%3Dopus%23query%3Dlog_level%3Ddebug&log_level=debug. Error opening input files: Server returned 404 Not Found

Maybe it should be url encoded here?

My error is similar but on the overview page I can see the stream, when I click on it brings up a mini window showing the stream for 3 or 4 seconds and then I get.

Hello all I believe i have found the issue. After staring at the error code for long enough I noticed my password on there was wrong; the sepcial characters were not showing up. I changed my camera password and removed the (#) I had out. Deleted the camera re-added and now it works. I don't want to change all my pws so I'm going to try to see if maybe putting it in quotations will work or something

I can confirm making a new user in my cameras with no special characters in the PW worked for me. I did not find a working solution using the original PW I cant see why this works because I do have a camera that was working with the pw that had a # in it. I will just make new users for all my cameras as it will provide another small layer of security.
The only thing I can think of that was different between the camera that I had working with the password with special characters is the fact that before the update I had not added that camera ever so it was my first time adding that particular camera. the rest were already added or had been added before.

Strange! I already tried a new user with a pw without any special charachters and that didn´t help me :(

Still, whats even more strange is that i get the snapshot when looking at the entities and can download a current snapshot but when trying to load the stream it won´t let me.

UPDATE! Just tried this again after the latest HA update and can confirm that this works!

When you say it works.. does that mean you get the live video stream again? Or just that snapshot. What you have posted is what mine has looked like since it broke. I could see the snapshots but it does not load when clicked.

Yep, live video is working as well. Set up another user with a simple password without any special characters and it fired up again.

Glad to hear. I hope this gets fixed as I like having special characters even for the dummy accounts I made for HA. Unfortunately the doorbell can only have one user name a pw and to change it you have to factory rest it and set up again.
