You appear to be one of the few people who have managed to get this working, and I would appreciate any help you're able to give. I've even bought a new Hikvision camera to try and standardize my setup, but just not having any luck.

I've tried stripping this command out of the Shinobi library files, but the rabbit hole just gets deeper as I then receive 'No device available for decoder: device type vaapi needed for codec h264_mmal'. Forums suggest that this is because the command is not supported by the stream type. I can successfully decode the steam and view the camera in Shinobi (yay, halfway there)Īs soon as I enable motion detection, ffmpeg crashes because it doesn't recognize the '-tune zerolatency' command.

Therefore, I've compiled (many versions/times) ffmpeg, successfully using:Ĭonfigure -enable-mmal -enable-omx -enable-omx-rpi -enable-gpl -enable-version3 -extra-ldflags=-latomic -enable-libx264 The static ffmpeg builds do not contain the h264_mmal decoder (maybe it's changed since your build), which is required if using the H.264 (Raspberry Pi) video input decoder from the drop down menu in Shinobi. After spending about 40 hours, I'm still unable to get hardware accelerated decoding in conjunction with motion detection working on the raspberry pi.
