See original GitHub issue

this is driving me nuts - if this isn’t the right forum please let me know - i have tried all the basic configs as well as the specific input_args for a reolink but try as i might i keep getting the following errors

i am running this from my home assistant server

frigate.video                  INFO    : Office: ffmpeg sent a broken frame. memoryview assignment: lvalue and rvalue have different structures
frigate.video                  INFO    : Office: ffmpeg process is not running. exiting capture thread...
ffmpeg.Office.detect           ERROR   : rtsp://bunny:REDACTED@XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:554/live: Invalid data found when processing input

ok try this as your url, just found it elsewhere.

'rtmp://<IPADDRESS>/bcs/channel0_sub.bcs?channel=0&stream=0&user=<USERNAME>&password=<PASSWORD>'

this is now working for me. @blakeblackshear , Maybe this could be noted in the reolink section?
