Message-ID: <caj2wgcr2vovta5awrkn98ftldlxgzp+g_yt969nwpvocudq...@mail.gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" thank you, Well that worked. I do see the "value" on some other camera configurations and they are working. Is there a rule I am missing? like: netcam_url value http://... --- is working and: netcam_url rtsp://... -- works, and cannot have the "value" ? This is my first upgrade since version 4.0. I thin the "value" has been depreciated and still works in a few cases. So I assume that we should not use the "value" is that true?

Dunno, but I see similar things on my system and I put it down to limited processor power. My system is an older pi and my camera is USB-connected, which I believe make my problems worse so I've never got around to investigating further. I see a frame rate of 1 or 2 frames a second, very rarely a third. > I am using Raspberry Pi Zero Ws with V2 Pi cameras.

Most people look at 'top' and see less than 100% CPU, but without some of the tricks documented in the config file, a lot of that is via just one CPU, so really, you're tapped out. == John == > -----Original Message----- > From: Dave Howorth <d...@howorth.org.uk> > Dunno, but I see similar things on my system and I put it down to > limited processor power.
