    @OrangeMirror the current docker setup will only work for multiple instances IF you use the MM_CONFIG_FILE environment variable to run instances off different config files, or the MM_PORT env variable to override the port if using the same config.js all the files will come from the ONE folder tree ~/magicmirror so this means you would have to setup multiple entries in the compose.yaml to launch multiple instances (with the different config parms) You have to change the container name too this is because all the DATA used by the container is external (on docker host filesystem) and not IN the container an example NOT using docker, but same idea here https://docs.magicmirror.builders/configuration/introduction.html#advanced-configuration-and-frequently-asked-how-to-configure-examples

    Hello, I think you can use the useVLC in embedded mode In recent forks of MMM-RTSPStream, VLC can be embedded into the browser view with an iframe or HTML5 video tag, which respects DOM positioning. Check the fork you’re using. If it’s still spawning standalone VLC, look for configuration like: localPlayer: ‘ffmpeg’ // instead of ‘vlc’ Some forks added ffmpeg or jsmpeg options to push the stream into a element.

    @Socrates note that without adding a parameter The script does nothing. It only tests the ability to update the base MagicMirror Update is two pass process Test. Make no changes Do. Apply the changes (with the parameter apply) Many users have modified MagicMirror base code not knowing about the config and css file design. These changes block the ability to update normally Over time they forget that they changed the files and what they actually changed. The force way to install is to wipe all changes, but now the result doesn’t work like it used to. Adding a lot of frustration.

    nomachine is a great and free alternative to VNC. I have been using it to mirror my smart mirror to my laptop’s display and it works very well.

    @mumblebaj @KristjanESPERANTO @sdetweil Thank you all for the information. I think I will stick with the way I already understand. setting up the docker and all seems like more work that is not in my wheelhouse. Interesting approach to the same end result.

    @blt791 it’s quite a lot of work. You can use the developers window sources tab to debug the code Ctrl-shift-i, select the sources tab Navigate in the left nav to your module and it’s source file You can walk thru the code line by line if need be
