core: Generic Camera stops working after several seconds (rtsp)

The problem

After i upgraded from 2021-04 to 2021-05-4 and -5 in lovelace the camera stream stops working after some seconds. In lovelace i have four streams showing the mjpeg debug stream from frigate and in parallel the same cameras directly attached to the generic plugin. When I open the lovelace tab everything seems to be normal. The delay of the generic camera stream is normal compared to the old version. After 2-3 sec. the stream stops for a short time and then you can see a more current stream much closer to the current time (and thats pretty cool). But again after some seconds, the cameras stop streaming one by one. If I click on the camera picture, then the same happens (here the stream window turns into grey). I tried several browser, but the behavior is the same. (lovelace set to auto and preload activated) Today i tried the 2021.6.0.dev20210523, but here its the same!
