Came across this post and both of these formats worked for the source. I'll try out each for a while to see if one works better than the other. So far both seem to be working without a distorted image. ​ \-fflags nobuffer -probesize 32 -analyzeduration 0 -rtsp\_transport tcp -i rtsp://username:[email protected]/stream1 \-fflags nobuffer -probesize 32 -analyzeduration 0 -re -i rtsp://username:[email protected]/stream1

Each row is one report from a plugin’s GitHub issues, pull requests, discussions, wiki or docs, or from r/homebridge. Check the date and the linked thread before you buy.

In ReReHome

Once a Homebridge plugin publishes it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Homebridge bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
