I am using ContaCam (great product by the way) to monitor all my wifi cameras. I just got a Wyze CAM V2 for Christmas and install the RTSP access so I can us it with ContaCam.
I got it all working and had great throughput using SD on the camera.
Unfortunately at least once per day the connection is lost from ContaCam. I can still connect from the Wyze App. However, ContaCam can not reconnect. I am forced to restart the camera from the Wyze App and then ContaCam can connect once again.
Anyone experienced and solved this type of connection issue with RTSP?
I had similar issues with TinyCam, it was constantly dropping frames and then disconnecting. I hadn’t seen it not be able to reconnect without rebooting, however the problem was so bad that I only let it running like that for a day.
I know the RTSP firmware page mentions if you’re having problems there’s a second version of the firmware you can try.
In the end I gave up on that and loaded a 3rd party firmware off GitHub. That comes with its own set of issues to overcome (tweaking streaming settings to get consistent connections, and day/night detection), but I was able to get better RTSP streaming out of it. It also completely disconnects the camera from the cloud.
