Describe the problem you are having
I have tried to configure frigate to use a _sub stream (which I have confirmed with ffprobe uses h264 rather than hevc) for detection, and the impression I got from the docs was that this would control live playback of clips in the browser (I have also tried setting the live: stream name parameter to ensure this). However, while the preview I get from the timeline scrubber works, any attempt to play a clip from the timeline yields the error:
(or if I turn off "use graphics acceleration when available" in my Chromium 129 it just hangs). chrome://media-internals/ has:
which mentions hevc so looks to me like it is still trying to use my main, rather than sub, stream. In my included config I have a go2rtc setup, I have also tried without this. I have also tried without input_args: preset-rtsp-restream
The only thing that works is changing my recording to use the h264Preview_01_sub as well, which I don't want to do since the h264Preview_01_main is much higher resolution. Have I misconfigured something or misunderstood?
