All my cameras are Tapo, I used to have this kind of connectivity issues until I found a configuration that is working fine. It's been working rock solid for more than a year. My config looks like: go2rtc:
streams:
front_camera:
- ffmpeg:rtsp://user:[email protected]:554/stream1#video=copy#audio=copy#audio=aac
# - "ffmpeg:front_camera#audio=aac"
...
cameras:
front_camera:
ffmpeg:
output_args:
record: preset-record-generic-audio-copy
inputs:
- path: rtsp://127.0.0.1:8554/front_camera?video=copy&audio=aac
input_args: preset-rtsp-restream
roles:
- record
- detect
- audio Perhaps you want to give it a try to see if it works for you as well. |

FWIW I have the same issue with my C120s, according to my Eero 6E, they are causing a ton of wifi interference, i have 5 cams up and that maxes out my 2.4ghz spectrum, 6+ cams locks the whole spectrum up. have you tried just running a few cams simultaneously and see if that fixes your issue? |

I just got the same camera but I have not tested it in Frigate yet. Have you tried not using the substream and using just the mainstream? |

I ended up getting my RMA set up here and im still seeing exceptions, but its not completely killing the camera stream. I tried @didi3r's suggestion but still had errors and the feed was more choppy than having a separate rtsp and ffmpeg item in the go2rtc stream. Also tried without a substream. Im gonna see how long the camera actively stays working on this RMA camera and will report back. |

Describe the problem you are having
I have a number of Tapo cameras and the C120's for some reason throw a ton of errors in the logs and become unresponsive every day requiring scheduled restarts in order for things to work.

Its the Kitchen Camera. The Basement and Loft cameras work no problem and they're C110s. Others are POE.
