      i tried my best to follow the instructions for MMM-RTSPStream.
      believe it or not, it was working for 10 seconds while i was setting up the Pi. when i restarted, the video feed no longer works. all i see is a white outline of where the video should be.

      here is my module config: https://i.imgur.com/jGMbmwc.jpg
      intially, the thought the camera crashed but it is still working fine as seen here: https://i.imgur.com/sLH9Yhj.jpg

      and here is my port settings for the camera: https://i.imgur.com/ssbt5Vg.jpg

      could someone please help? so strange it quit on me after a restart!

        check the port settings in your config.js file, I think it’s usually set to 8080

          • what’s in the log?
          • do you have MMM-PIR-Sensor running in parallel?
            I experience crashing of MMM-RTSPStream as described here: https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/7260/mmm-pir-sensor-interferes-with-mmm-rtspstream

            MMM-PIR-Sensor

              @binderth i am happy to say i can view the camera now AND got the PIR working thanks to your link https://github.com/cowboysdude/Pir-Sensor/blob/master/monitor_on.sh

              BUT when motion is detected, monitor turns on only with the camera stream. nothing else is displayed. no calendar, no weather, no time. just camera stream.
              any idea why? i spent 3 hours and still clueless. thanks!
