Can you post a screenshot of the issue? I'm not sure I completely follow.

[gonzalezcalleja]

Hi, this is a screenshot from iOS, but the problem with safari is the same in macOS and iOS.

Thanks for your support!

[hawkeye217]

Does this occur on any other browser besides Safari?

If you view the stream from the camera in VLC or through go2rtc's dashboard, does it look normal?

[gonzalezcalleja]

Chrome is ok, the problem is only in Safari with this Foscam cameras.

VLC plays the stream ok from go2rtc.

[hawkeye217]

Ok, so this is definitely a particular problem with Safari then, not with Frigate itself. Let's see if we can figure it out.

Can you try changing your go2rtc to this:

    plantabaja_sub:
      #Planta Baja: HEVC y PCM
      - ffmpeg:rtsp://admin:[email protected]:88/videoSub#video=h264#audio=opus#audio=aac

[gonzalezcalleja]

Thanks @hawkeye217 ! now the resize is working!

[hawkeye217]

Great! Happy to help.

[hawkeye217]

Does it still work if you change it to this?

    plantabaja_sub:
      #Planta Baja: HEVC y PCM
      - ffmpeg:rtsp://admin:[email protected]:88/videoSub#video=h264#hardware#audio=opus#audio=aac

Yes! the resize is working with #hardware. Thanks!

I have noticed that Foscam C5M uses HEVC (H265) for main and sub stream, but enabling "Alexa / Google Assistant / NVR Connection:" changes to H264 so I don't need to transcode for live.
