Thanks again for looking into this. I'm sure it's not easy.

I'm using a 64 bit RPi 4. The new `h264_v4l2m2m` codec is recording video and snapshots from only the French Bakery and Reykjavik Iceland default links. The key issues right now are:

**RTSP**

Do RTSP cameras work in HSS? It looks like there is an RTSP "BigBuckBunny" sample in tab named **IP Cam14** , but it is not working. I also tried the BigBuckBunny RTSP link in VLC, but it didn't work either. (I got this RTSP link from the injection node in the tab named "IP CAM14".)

Then, I changed the URL in the injection node to us my local RTSP cam and updated the hss\_config file to use this camera, but the video still didn't show. Not sure if updating the hss\_config is needed along with doing the injection manually from the CAM14 tab, but I figured I would do both.

**403 Forbidden Error**

I'm still getting `403 Forbidden` when trying to view Recording, Snapshots, etc, from UX. According to [Mozilla](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status/403), that error means the server understands the request but refuses to authorize it. So it seems to be an apache config issue.
