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?
Thanks for the help

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.

Probably - we upgraded our embedded project to a Pi 4, and now can record full
frame video off USB3 without too much trouble, but I haven't benchmarked
anything.
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.

The format is "netcam_url value" where you must replace "value" with your
actual url.
