Describe the problem you are having

Hello all,
My Frigate WebUI, displaying on a tv using a raspberry pi 4 with Chromium, flickers the camera views for a second and then all but one or two camera views go black/blank (see attached image) but from my desktop PC with any browser or from my laptop with any browser, the views show a static image until motion is detected then shows the live view (like it should, as is my understanding). Same thing if I click on a specific view, from the raspberry pi, it stays blank but if I do it from my desktop or laptop, it shows the live view fine. So I am not sure if I have an incorrect configuration some where? Any help is very appreciated!

It looks like I may have found the answer, my config on my amcrest cameras was bad. I changed the configs to the snippet below and all cameras are successfully streaming correctly in Frigate WebUI now. I am going to keep the issue open for a couple days before closing just to see if anyone has any advice for a better Frigate Config.

UPDATE: Still seems to be hit or miss. Turning on dark mode for the WebUI seems to kill some of the feeds but leaving light mode on seems to keep most of the feeds with a static image at least.
