MMM-MotionEye - surveillance video stream on your mirror!

Change Your port in the config.js from 8765 to 8081

@Binog
Thanks, but still no succes, and would not know why it would work because i have nothing running on 8081?MM runs on 8080 and Motioneye runs on 8765

Have a look in motioneye under Videostreaming -> Streaming Port. Use that one,. with me it is 8081. and the snapshot port is 8765.
Hopefully that helps.

Hi,
Seems many missunderstand the URL-parameter. This is the Streaming URL you have to find in MotionEye. It is not the URL of MagicMirror or the motion detection url you configure in MotionEye.
As described in the README.md:
url
Video Streaming URL. You find it in Motion Eye in the Video Streaming Section under Usefull URLs by by clicking the Streaming URL link. It should look something like this: http://motioneye:8081 (probably an IP instead of hostname).
Open that URL in a browser and you should get a single animated JPEG. If not, then you have found the wrong URL!
The URL that looks like this: http://magicmirror:8080/motioneye/1 has nothing to do with what image is visible in the module. This is an triggering URL for showing the image if it’s hidden and a motion that MotionEye detects. It should be configured in MotionEye and not this module. Skip this step unless you know what you are doing…

Hi all,
I recently installed the current MM version on the current Jessie image to use on a RPI III. Everyting fine with the standard installation. Then I installed MotionEye on top but can’t get it running. I used the same config parms then in another installation but without success. I can see only a small icon on the screen where the stream should be visible. Surprisingly i can see everything on any other system using http:Ipaddress:8080. I can also switch on/off using wget but I see only a small icon on the MM system. Nothing helpful in the logs. I’m clueless at the moment. Any help will be appreciated. -
@Woody Can you send a screenshot of Video Streaming URL in MotionEye?
-
@Cato Hi Cato, actually I don’t know what you really mean. The URL i use is http://userid:password@myipaddress:8081. This streaming URL works on any browser and on my other MM system. I’ve made also a shot of the icon I see on the screen if you mean that. Remember, when I’m URL to MM from any other system everything works as expected.
-
No, I want to see a screenshot of MotionEye, the section where Video Streaming URL is shown.
You say that “Then I installed MotionEye on top but can’t get it running”. What can’t you get running? MotionEye or MagicMirror or this module?
-
@cato O.K. Cato, now I understand what you mean, sorry. As mentioned, I installed a complete new MM from scratch. Everything went fine, MM’s standard modules are present, as expected. Then I installed MotionEye as described but on the screen I see only the small image as on the picture. This also disappears when I configure autohide and no motion is present.
I think that’s it -
Can you paste your config-section of this module?
