Getting rtsp Wyze cam working

Playground Custom Channels
#1

I made a m3u file and it works fine in VLC.
#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:-1, channel-id="wyze" channel-number="9003", TEST
rtsp://username:[email protected]/live
Set to MPEG-TS
But I get this error from the logs.

Any ideas? It works in VLC.

#3

You ever get this going?

#4

It works for me. I’m running the RTSP beta firmware on my camera. Not sure if that’s still required, but since you’re having success with vlc, I’m not sure what could be causing problems.

Could it be that Channels is competing with a different client (vlc, Wyze app) for the camera’s stream?

#5

Hmm,
No love. Does my M3U file look like yours? Any differences?

Not that I noticed. Here's mine:

#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:-1 channel-id="WyzeCam" channel-number="750" tvg-logo="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f2/Wyze_Labs_Logo.svg/1280px-Wyze_Labs_Logo.svg.png" tvg-name="WyzeCam" tvc-guide-title="WyzeCam" tvc-guide-description="WyzeCam live stream." tvc-guide-art="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f2/Wyze_Labs_Logo.svg/1280px-Wyze_Labs_Logo.svg.png",WyzeCam

I copied jmf's M3U, changed the user/password/ip and it works in the Android apps but not the web interface.

#9

I tried that with no success.

#10

Bump. Just getting started with this.

  1. Works in VLC, but not Channels
  2. Where exactly can I review the log-files?
#11

have you tried this ?

Interesting Docker for Wyze Cameras ... HLS + RTSP - Playground / Hacks - Channels Community (getchannels.com)

#12

I have RTSP running just fine on my WyzeCam. I appreciate this link, but would just like a way to evaluate why my current m3u file isnt working in Channels, when it is in VLC.

Pasted Below (dont mind the random web images for thumbnails)

#EXTM3U
