FFmpeg for Homebridge

This project provides static FFmpeg binaries for multiple platforms and architectures for use with Homebridge.

Specifically, we provide:

  • Audio support using libfdk-aac
  • Hardware-accelerated encoding support on Intel platforms using h264_qsv and hardware-accelerated encoding on Raspberry Pi 3+ using h264_v4l2m2m
  • Hardware-accelerated encoding support on Apple platforms using videotoolbox

Supported Platforms

OS Supported Architectures
FreeBSD x86_64
Linux x86_64, armv7l, aarch64

Note: Raspberry Pi 5 is currently unsupported. There are multiple known issues that will be addressed in a future release.

Issues

Issues related to Homebridge or any Homebridge-related camera plugins should be raised on the corresponding project page, Discord, or community support forums.

Issues strictly related to the compatibility or installation of the resulting binary may be raised here.

Plugin Dependency

This section is for Homebridge plugin developers only, if you need to install FFmpeg see the instructions above.

You can optionally include this package as a dependency in your Homebridge camera plugins. This package will automatically download and install the correct FFmpeg binary to your user's Homebridge installation when they install your plugin, as long as they are on one of the supported platforms listed above.

npm install --unsafe-perm --save ffmpeg-for-homebridge
// .js
var pathToFfmpeg = require("ffmpeg-for-homebridge");

// .ts
import pathToFfmpeg from "ffmpeg-for-homebridge";

// fallback to system FFmpeg (replace this with your own ffmpeg spawn command)
child_process.spawn(pathToFfmpeg || "ffmpeg", []);

If a supported version of FFmpeg is unavailable for the user's platform, or this package failed to download the FFmpeg binary, the package will return undefined, you should check for this and and try and use FFmpeg from the user's PATH instead.

You will need to update your plugin's README installation command to include the --unsafe-perm flag. For example:

# example 
sudo npm install -g --unsafe-perm homebridge-fake-camera-plugin
