Service don't work

[stonike-tm]

Thanks a lot for this repo !
I want to automate the start but the service don't work.
I'm on a raspberry pi 4/64 bits and record on the SD card directly (/home/pi/RECORD/)

I don't know why but when I launch in background, the application dosen't record. (I try to use & or do an sh script or ....)
The only way to make this happend is to use 'screen' to launch in a background terminal

What does your service file look like? The service file is located at: /etc/systemd/system/ndi_recorder.service

By default, the service file records to this path: /media/root/primary/

Service file is like :

[Unit]
Description=NDI Recorder
After=network-online.target

[Service]
User=root
ExecStart=/opt/ndi_recorder/bin/ndi_recorder -p /home/pi/RECORD
Restart=always
RestartSec=5

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

ndi_recorder running well, I can acces with browser, start record but no recorded file ...

Strange...I will do some testing of my own and see if I can figure out what the problem is.

are the problem solved? i have may the same issue with unprivileged lxc debian 12. website is there, service is running.. its says recording.. but i dont see which format is used by the recorder (mp4,mov,mkv) and i cant locate any files :(

i tested it without service, starting with ndi_recorder -p PATH is working. But the service isnt working. i deleted the systemd/system file and created new sym link. but it doesnt work it only takes the var path like in ur example.

I test further
