r/BirdNET_Analyzer

Hi, installed Birdnet-go on my synology NAS using docker, and so far it's working well. I'm using RTSP streams from 4 reolink cameras in my garden.

However, after running for about 6 hours I'm getting error notifications:

- api reported: failed to initialize secure filesystem: open /home/birdnet/.config/birdnet-go/hls: permission denied

- system-resource error in securefs: open /home/birdnet/.config/birdnet-go/hls: permission denied

I've tried googling but can't find anything obvious. The app continues to run, and is detecting birds just fine, so I'm not sure whether these errors are critical or not, or what the implications are for them.

Possibly related (or possibly not...) I can no longer listen to live audio through Birdnet-go. This worked when I first installed, but after a few hours doesn't work any more - I just get an error. I've tried restarting the container, but the error persists.

Any ideas? I can post my Docker-compose if it helps, but it's basically identical to the sample one on the Birdnet-go github page.

Hi all, I've been a keen Merlin fan for a few years, but my wife has always wondered if we could set up some kind of always-on solution, and somehow I only stumbled across BirdNet this week. So today I installed Birdnet-Go in docker on my Synology NAS, connected it to the 4 reolink cams in the garden, and boom - within about 15 mins I've got exactly what I want. Amazing! 2 hours later it's captured 21 species.... 😄

Thanks to the dev - it's much appreciated.

So, next steps.... I've installed the bat models, but unfortunately the webcam mics aren't up to the task, so I'm wondering if somebody can recommend a mic that is. What I'd really like is:

• A mic with 96hz that can pick up bats
• Water/weather proof (although if necessary I have places I can position it that would stay dry)
• Can connect via wifi and present a stream that BirdNet-Go can use, so I don't need to hardwire it
• For bonus points, either rechargeable battery with a decent life, or ideally solar-powered.

If the battery/solar options aren't easy (or cheap) then I can stick it on a USB cable if necessary.

I'm not looking to build/solder one - I'd just like something I can order online and set up quickly without any faff. Any suggestions? I'm in the SE of the UK if it makes a difference.

Using this repo ^, I built an ESP32 mic that will forever live outside and stream audio on my home network.
I have a birdnet-go docker container running on my home server which is able to consistently identify birds based on their calls and songs, I can play back clips just fine. But whenever I attempt to listen to the live audio stream, I get an error, no context, no stack trace or logs. Just shows an error pop up and disappears. I glanced at the logs in **/config but didnt see anything meaningful. Also peepd the logs for the container without much success.

I am able to stream live using VLC so its not an issue with the mic.

I've set max clients on the mic to 3 just in case there was an issue with that.

What might be the issue?
