Changes in config/go2rtc/go2rtc.yaml get overwritten

[Pietjuhbel]

Not sure if I this a bug or I misinterpret the instruction.

Customizing Configuration
After first run, you can customize the configuration:

Edit main configuration

nano ./config/lightnvr.ini

Edit go2rtc configuration (WebRTC, RTSP settings)

nano ./config/go2rtc/go2rtc.yaml

Restart to apply changes

docker compose restart

However when I edit the go2rtc.yaml and restart docker the changes are overwritten and the content is default.
I would to make some tweaks to ffmpeg, but it also would be nice if they would stick :-)

Is this from the docs? The streams are managed in lightNVR and lightNVR manages to the go2rtc ... so yes it is expected manual changes get overwritten.

Happy to hear more about it and how we can support it.

What I pasted is right at the bottom in the readme.md

I am still having issues recording streams using Duhua cameras, however I managed to get a propper stream on the commandline using some additional flags for ffmpeg.

My assumption when reading the readme was the go2rtc.yaml to be the right place to incorporate these tweaks.

Ill get the docs updated later -- what are the flags you found that worked?

Disabling audio -an makes ffmpeg stop shouting about 'non monotonically increasing dts'
However after some more testing I found that even though ffmpeg warns about the above it just keeps recording whereas lightNVR breaks the recording on this warning and starts a new one which results in lots of recordings only a couple of seconds in length.
