Fix for RTSP functionality on 4.36.2.5 about wz_mini_hacks HOT 23 CLOSED

if you type cmd video on do you get any output over ssh?

from wz_mini_hacks.

I just gave that a shot and no effect.
after that went ahead and tried
cmd video off
and then
cmd video on
and then checking for good measure.

output remains as is

• audio there if audio on (though to be honest I haven't checked the sound itself)
• nothing at all if just rtsp enabled

from wz_mini_hacks.

can you do
logread | grep inject
and
logread | grep callback

to get the best logs try this within a short time after boot.

from wz_mini_hacks.

logread | grep inject is blank.
logread | grep callback is

strange, i never tested with that firmware version. i would recommend upgrading to at least 4.36.3.19, if not the latest. They have improved the software by a lot.

i will do more research on that older version later

from wz_mini_hacks.

I will probably upgrade them soon ... but for right now, I'm just glad to have it running without wifi.

Just got the app running again on that camera. will test it against the cron jobs I've got set up for tonight and then move the other cameras to wz_mini

it's amazing how much easier it is to use them via SSH than telnet

from wz_mini_hacks.

ssh = good :)

can you share the output of ps w with rtsp on?

it's possible that the old version of wyzehacks running is interfering, because the iCamera executable is not running the way it should... you should have 262 root 1h11 /opt/wz_mini/tmp/.storage/iCamera in there too. Are you using the recent version of wz_mini?

from wz_mini_hacks.

I'm using the version 2022-05-12 of wz_mini

maybe it is wyzehacks that is the problem ...

or maybe it's the firmware version

i dont have that FW version and its no longer posted, do you still have the demo.bin?

ok flashing now to test

can you cat /opt/wz_mini/tmp/.storage/rcS and share it?

looks like theres a bug in the v3_init.sh script, one sec

from wz_mini_hacks.

looks like that fw version is broken, the scripts don't run correctly because the busybox version doesn't work as it should. the scripts should run even on an old version of busybox...

so the solution for now is to upgrade the FW

from wz_mini_hacks.

add this under GPIO=63 in the file /opt/wz_mini/etc/init.d/v3_init.sh
mount --bind /opt/wz_mini/bin/busybox /bin/busybox

and see if that fixes things.

from wz_mini_hacks.

fully operational wz_mini'd camera !
Will put upgrading on the todo list.

from wz_mini_hacks.

note that with that fix, wifi won't work because iCamera needs an older busybox. I'll try figure out how to include this into the release to make it work across all fw versions... with working wifi lol

from wz_mini_hacks.

fortunately since I'm doing usb direct, I don't actually want/need the wifi support!

But it seems like we should start invoicing wyze

from wz_mini_hacks.

latest version has the fixes built in. hope the new version with bit rate settings works well for you
