Buddy stream on Octoprint

Anyone managed to use the new local network stream to be read by Octoprint using the webcam plugin?

Tried adding the link provided by Prusa Connect but it doesn't work

Thanks!

How does that work?  I installed it and can't find any settings to tell it where to get the RTSP stream from the buddy camera.

I installed go2rtc using chatgpt instructions in the raspberry pi 3b, configured it with the stream provided by the buddycam, then took this stream and added it to the stream url in the octoprint webcam config. Did mostly everything guided by chatgpt as I know almost nothing about linux.
