No live view in single camera view

[Preskovitch]

Hi,
I can see live view in the main dashboard but when I click on a camera I don't have live stream on single view. I have a circle "turning"
I tried to update to latest version (0.16.2) but same result
I run Frigate on synology with docker.

Thanks for your help !

Based on your configuration, the issue is that you're missing the go2rtc configuration, which is required for the best live view experience in Frigate.(1)

Your current setup only has a detect stream (stream2) and a record stream (stream1), but Frigate's live view works best when you configure go2rtc to restream your camera feeds.(1)(2)

Here's what you need to add to your configuration:

go2rtc:
  streams:
    Salon:
      - rtsp://XXX/stream1
    Salon_sub:
      - rtsp://XXX/stream2
    Cuisine:
      - rtsp://XXX/stream1
    Cuisine_sub:
      - rtsp://XXX/stream2

cameras:
  Salon:
    enabled: true
    ffmpeg:
      inputs:
        - path: rtsp://127.0.0.1:8554/Salon_sub
          input_args: preset-rtsp-restream
          roles:
            - detect
        - path: rtsp://127.0.0.1:8554/Salon
          input_args: preset-rtsp-restream
          roles:
            - record
    live:
      streams:
        Main Stream: Salon
        Sub Stream: Salon_sub
    # ... rest of your config
  
  Cuisine:
    enabled: true
    ffmpeg:
      inputs:
        - path: rtsp://127.0.0.1:8554/Cuisine_sub
          input_args: preset-rtsp-restream
          roles:
            - detect
        - path: rtsp://127.0.0.1:8554/Cuisine
          input_args: preset-rtsp-restream
          roles:
            - record
    live:
      streams:
        Main Stream: Cuisine
        Sub Stream: Cuisine_sub
    # ... rest of your config

(1)(2)

The spinning circle you're seeing indicates that Frigate is attempting to load the MSE live stream but timing out, which causes it to fall back to "low bandwidth mode".(1) Without go2rtc configured, the live view will use jsmpeg by default, which may not work properly in single camera view.(1)

After adding the go2rtc configuration, restart Frigate. The live view should now work in both the dashboard and single camera views.(1)

Are you behind a proxy? Frigate uses websockets for connecting to your live streams. The most common reason for this failing in your case is that websockets are disabled or blocked.

[Preskovitch]

Ok, it works know. websockets on my reverseproxy weren't set up.
Thanks for your help !

Great, glad it's working for you now. Happy to help.
