Describe the issue

Rpi Zero Camera fails after several minutes ussage (used rtsp and webrtc), returning below error on console:
Message from syslogd@cam002 at Apr 15 10:11:55 ...
kernel:[ 3580.685350] Internal error: Oops: 80000005 [#1] ARM

Describe how to replicate the issue

Using Rpi Zero (2015), 8GB SD card, image Rasberry pi Zero, Legacy 32 bit, follow steps below:

1. sudo raspi-config, then go to Interfacing options, enable/disable legacy camera support
2. sudo reboot
3. sudo apt intstall libcamera0
4. sudo apt install libfreetype6
5. wget https://github.com/bluenviron/mediamtx/releases/download/v1.7.0/mediamtx_v1.7.0_linux_armv6.tar.gz
6. tar -xzf mediamtx_v1.7.0_linux_armv6.tar.gz
7. edit yml (the yml file is attached as well mediamtx_yml.txt):
   paths:
   cam:
   source: rpiCamera
8. nohup ./mediamtx &
9. connect to the camera using rtsp and webrtc as below:
   http://cam001.local:8889/cam/
   rtsp://cam001.local:8554/cam

Did you attach the server logs?

yes
mediamtx.log

Did you attach a network dump?

no

That looks suspiciously similar to this issue: raspberrypi/rpicam-apps#246

The RPi Zero is prone to bugs when doing heavy workloads (The issue is exacerbated with insufficient power supplies). Try the workaround from this comment: raspberrypi/rpicam-apps#246 (comment)

Alternatively, switch to a better power supply.

Hello, as anticipated by @Ataman this is a hardware-related issue that happens when power is not enough for the current workload. Switch to a better power supply or alternatively decrease consumption by disabling WiFi, Bluetooth, LEDs, HDMI or perform underclocking. There are lots of guides on the topic, like this one:
