Model: Tapo C222  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.3.1

Hi, the latest firmware seem to use hevc h265 for the 2560x1440 stream, and messing up with my ONVIF NVR setup, as it do not support h265. 

stream url rtsp://192.168.120.182:554/stream2
[Rebroadcast Plugin]: -hide_banner -use_wallclock_as_timestamps 1 -r 25 -rtsp_transport tcp -i rtsp:[REDACTED] -rtsp_transport tcp -vcodec copy -acodec copy -pkt_size 32000 -f rtsp rtsp://127.0.0.1:32971/f431eb34b844de3b
[Rebroadcast Plugin]: Input #0, rtsp, from 'rtsp://ZZZZ:XXXX@192.168.120.182:554/stream1':
[Rebroadcast Plugin]:   Metadata:
[Rebroadcast Plugin]:     title           : Session streamed by "TP-LINK RTSP Server"
[Rebroadcast Plugin]:   Duration: N/A, start: 1741576380.246078, bitrate: N/A
[Rebroadcast Plugin]: Stream #0:0: Video: hevc (Main), yuv420p(tv), 2560x1440, 25 fps, 29.83 tbr, 90k tbn
[Rebroadcast Plugin]:   Stream #0:1: Audio: pcm_alaw, 8000 Hz, mono, s16, 64 kb/s

 

The firmware release note make no metion about switching codes, the product description page also not updated.

 

 

 

 

How can I switch back to H264 with current firmware, and how can I downgrade the firmware if I cannot switch back to h264.

 

Thanks a lot!

  @Solla-topee I'm experiencing the same issue! The stream is now only using the H.265 codec. How can we revert back to H.264, or at least have the option to choose? My setup with Scrypted and ONVIF Manager is now broken, and I can't use anything other than the Tapo app, which is really inconvenient and disappointing!
