Any other information that may be helpful

All my cameras are hibvision and working fine. I have been using frigate since version .11 I think maybe, .12. After about 3 days after starting over with a new db and deploy, these errors start appearing for some of the cameras, not all of them when i try and review history.

Errors on both iOS and Mac OS X Chrome.

And now it’s working fine. This is odd. Any idea what this error message eludes too? Any experience with it? Is my GPU having intermittent issues?

This is a client error typically specific to Chrome and chromium based browsers, which are often more particular about bad data in a video stream.

It's hard to say exactly what in your setup caused it, but if it happens again, you might try another browser to see what, if any, errors are produced there.
