 @hexa:lossy.network | you need to mount certain things into the container | 02:20:29 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | you probably want to run in the host network namespace | 02:20:37 |
 macaroniskengz | In reply to @hexa:lossy.network
you probably want to run in the host network namespace Actually I dont want that | 02:21:48 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | ok, so no multicast things for you | 02:22:49 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | no avahi discovery | 02:22:57 |
| macaroniskengz | Yes, due to security concerns I already disabled it in my current setup | 02:23:53 |
| macaroniskengz | Maybe I am too paranoid, but i dont trust thesd proprietary devices I cant get rid of | 02:24:25 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | you'd probably have to review the systemd hardening yourself | 02:25:37 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | I can't explain all options to you | 02:25:42 |

 netpleb | right now my frigate config is very basic and I have something like:
# amcrest cameras
cameras.driveway = {
ffmpeg.inputs = [ {
path = "rtsp://<user>:<password>:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=1"
roles = [ "detect" ]
} ];
};
but I seem to be unable to get any audio from the cameras (I have enabled AAC audio in the camera's UI itself). Is there some additional thing I need to add to frigate/ffmpeg so that it will stream/record audio too?
| 19:24:56 |
| netpleb | I do not have amcrest integration in hass turned on, nor am I using go2rtc in frigate (i am new to all these things), so I am having a hard time grasping what is the minimum I need to setup to get audio working. Any help much appreciated! | 19:27:26 |
| netpleb | because I am doing this all on nixos using hexa's excellent modules for hass and frigate, I am also confused about things like: http://card.camera/#/README -- are we still able to use that frigate card, or no? | 19:33:19 |
| netpleb | for anyone coming along later, I figured out how to get audio working. It seems to have required: ffmpeg.output_args.record = "preset-record-generic-audio-copy"; instead of ffmpeg.output_args.record = "preset-record-generic-audio-aac"; not sure why but whatever ;) | 20:16:52 |

 laurynasp | Does anyone use esp32 boards? How far did you managed to get with declarative (or at least programatic) way to reflash the devices?
I have enabled services.esphome, which seems to use /var/lib/private/esphome as workdirectory directory. However, if files in the work directory symlink to elsewher (e.g. /run/secrets/esp/esp32-test.yaml) it complains with the following message.
ERROR Exception in callback functools.partial(<function WebSocketProtocol._run_callback.<locals>.<lambda> at 0xffffa09fc0e0>, <Task finished name='Task-3531' coro=<EsphomeCommandWebSocket.on_message() done, defined at /nix/store/qz8753g0sgf8xy253kpbpbrr3r4j340r-esphome-2024.4.2/lib/python3.11/site-packages/esphome/dashboard/web_server.py:175> exception=ValueError("'/run/secrets.d/11/esp/esp32-test.yaml' is not in the subpath of '/var/lib/private/esphome' OR one path is relative and the other is absolute.")>)
| 01:49:36 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | I maintain the esphome package but I have never used the module | 01:50:37 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | I run various esp32 though | 01:50:45 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | honestly, that sounds like a base path restriction due to symlinks | 01:51:51 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | * honestly, that sounds like a base path restriction hit due to symlinks | 01:52:00 |
| laurynasp | what is your setup for managing / flashing the devices?
do you flash from nix develop? | 01:52:26 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | that error is printed by pathlib | 01:52:55 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | I have a devshell, yeah | 01:53:07 |
