WebRTC

To use WebRTC, replace ?action=stream with webrtc in your webcam URL configuration.

Note

This feature only works if you are using mode: camera-streamer or mode: spyglass on a Raspberry Pi. The Raspberry Pi 5 is currently not supported.

Warning

Do not change the URL Snapshot setting! It should remain the same as before.
