ffmpeg becomes immediately unavailable #117

I am trying to use ffmpeg_motion on an image file:

binary_sensor:
    - name: ffmpeg_motion_on_file
      platform: ffmpeg_mtion
      input: "/media/my_snapshot_file.jpg"

Then use the developper services tab to start ffmpeg

service: ffmpeg.start
data: {}

The history shows that ffmpeg_motion tries to launch and immediatly becomes "unavailable"

I also tried specifying the ffmpeg binary manually in the configuration.yaml file:

ffmpeg:
    ffmpeg_bin: "/usr/bin/ffmpeg"

I can launch the ffmpeg utility manually using the ssh add-on without any trouble.

How could I get more logs about this so I can debug the problem?

I managed to get some more logs from HA but couldn't find any problem:

Can I ask you: my poor understanding of frigate was that it's just a software overlay over a camera's stream.

The fact you're using it in place of ffmpeg, could it mean it can be used to convert streams into h264?

I use frigate to stream a rtsp stream in home assistant with webrtc
frigate can also do motion detection
