From the reports on the forum, performance of graphics cards is mixed atm. It's new & WIP. Advanced users only.
First upgrade the CPU / motherboard.
fastest way to test streams: ffmpeg -i rtsp://<user>:<pass>@<ipaddress>:554/path ./output.mp4 (if terminal only) ffplay rtsp://<user>:<pass>@<ipaddress>:554/path (gui)
find paths on ispydb or in zm hcl

So the performance gains from using the hardware acceleration option are not significant, but there are performance gains from using that option right?
I currently have a GPU in that pc and it seems like a waste to have it doing nothing at all. Even if the gains aren't great I'd still like to do it. I just have this problem whenever I try. The logs will say something along the lines of hardware acceleration device not found...
Adding to the end of the source url ":1" fixed audio for me with Tapo (TP-Link) cameras (C120 model) on a Raspberry Pi 5.
User, Pedulla, suggested running this command "ffmpeg -i rtsp://user:password@camIP:554/Streaming/Channels/101 -c:v copy -c:a aac foo.mp4" in terminal to get more details on the url. Mine had suggested 0:0, 0:1
The default stream for my cam ends with "stream1" I just added ":1" to the end. You will need to run the command to get the details for your cameras.
