I am having the same issue with two c120's

[bone3dw]

I also have the same problem with c120s while the c100 works perfectly fine on the same network

[brakulla]

I have the same issue with C210

[nickstar14]

I'm experiencing the same issue with a C225, has there been any progress regarding this issue @kopiro?

[kopiro]

Can you update the plugin to latest version, enable Homebridge in debug mode, restart and post the logs here?

I'm experiencing the same issue. Snapshots work, but the stream fails. I enabled debug mode but the logs are the same as the original post.
