Assistance Needed with Implementing Bookworm via Balena Cloud

[CRSBenson]

Hello,

I'm looking to create/adjust the existing repo to accept a docker build to Balena Cloud. I'm still new to learning all the ropes of docker and all, but I have gotten 'build_containers.sh' to compile the Bookworm packages. However, the process is getting hung on, "ERROR [stage-0 2/9] RUN --mount=type=cache,target=/var/cache/apt apt-get update && apt-get -y install --no-install-recommends build-essential..." Can anyone take a look at what might be going wrong here?

I initially attempted to use VLC with Anthias running on Buster for RTSP streaming out to an HDMI. This is something that I achieved previously without Docker, so I gave it a shot and got very close, but I'm deciding to take a new approach. If using Bookworm to achieve my goals of a borderline 24/7 RTSP streaming monitor, including monitoring with Balena, isn't quite capable yet, tell me now. Otherwise, I'll continue to work with Buster on this.

In all, I hope that this helps other developers with Anthias via Balena Cloud using Bookworm. I'm open to suggestions and willing to contribute as I learn docker during my own developments.

@CRSBenson, thank you for creating a pull request. Here are my comments:

• Bookworm introduced breaking changes.
• If you're keen on making the RSTP feature work as soon as possible, I suggest that you continue working on Buster.
• RSTP doesn't work on Buster out of the box. Meanwhile, you can check this comment from another issue: Alert Server Error: global name 'mplayer' is not defined appears when adding a RTSP URL asset. #1638 (comment)

@nicomiguelino Thank you for the response.

I will continue to work with Buster and see if I can get something working for now. This pull request will be worked on periodically to see if we can make any progress with Balena and Bookworm.

@CRSBenson, I'll be trying out #1638 (comment) on my Anthias instance running Buster (in Docker containers). Are you using a public RSTP URL. If yes, I'd like to ask for a link (for testing purposes)?

[CRSBenson]

@nicomiguelino Unfortunately, the URL is local to the subnet of the Pi. I have a bench testing station set up, so I will attempt this again. Before, I was getting a white screen, but I believe that was addressed recently, too.

@CRSBenson, No worries, I just found a public RTSP link from Wowza — rtsp://b03773d78e34.entrypoint.cloud.wowza.com:1935/app-4065XT4Z/80c76e59_stream1. Thanks to that comment from #1638, I was able to make RTSP working, although there were workarounds

Here's a PR for reference: #1890.

@CRSBenson, I will be closing this as the following pull requests were already merged:

• Upgrade containers to use Bookworm #1980
• Upgrades webview builder from Buster to Bookworm #1982

If you want to update your device, you can do the following steps:

• For all platforms (whether it's Raspberry Pi OS Lite or BalenaOS), make sure to backup your data before proceeding. Click Settings on the navbar, then click Get Backup.
• For Raspberry Pi OS Lite, SSH to your device and run bash <(curl -sL https://install-anthias.srly.io).
• For BalenaOS (installed via the releases or via the Raspberry Pi Imager), updates happen automatically.
• For self-deployed BalenaOS instances, see this documentation for details.

Feel free to open a new issue or a new discussion if necessary.
