Home Assistant starts a camera’s fallback video alongside the WebRTC connection used for talkback again. That reverses the strategy described in yesterday’s edition: remembering a successful WebRTC connection no longer makes the fallback wait twelve seconds, and the browser stops filtering the connection-server list.
Wendelin’s follow-up testing found that those shortcuts did not solve slow starts. Relay setup in go2rtc with Home Assistant Cloud connection servers remains the suspected bottleneck. The player gives up sooner on an initial WebRTC connection that cannot start, while retaining microphone handover and the last visible frame during reconnection.
