        I am a newbie with Magic Mirror and Raspberry world so I would really appreciate if you could provide me a step-by-step instruction.
        I have the same challenge like yours: Although I set my stream video window to “bottom_right”, it appears to be in the between of “bottom_center” and “bottom_right”. In another word, it is completely located at the weirdest position: a little bit above the “bottom_center”, too much “left” from the “bottom_right” of the screen, etc…

        I follow your post to change the parameter of “moduleOffset” value but as you already stated, the moduleOffset did not work. The stream video window is still way off from where I want it to be. I am not familiar with the “.css” yet so if you are so kind, please point me to how I can make change to it?

        So, if possible, could you please kindly provide me a step-by-step instruction on how to align the stream windows with the “bottom_right” where it lines-up with the “current_weather” module (top-right)

        Thank you

          Can you post the moduleWidth, moduleHeight and the width and height from the stream?

          And if you see it in the pm2 logs, this info:

          Starting stream stream1 with args: [
              "--avdict",
              "rtsp_transport:tcp",
              "--win",
              "738, 63, 1090, 305",

          Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.5 (8 GB RAM)
          Raspbian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm)

          Test environment:
          MagicMirror version: v2.30.0
          Raspberry Pi 3 Model B Plus Rev 1.3 (1 GB RAM)

            Just to make it clear, I am not using any module anymore that uses omxplayer.
            For me MMM-RTSPStream stopped to work for my install and use a while ago (reason unknown) and for MMM-Dreambox I do not have place on my screen (but a nice module nevertheless).
            I have kept my MagicMirror pretty simple and static, just 5 modules and a video stream from my outdoor IP-camera.
            No fancy things with rotating, voice commands, gesture commands, etc.
            Everything that really matters in one view.

            As an alternative for MMM-RTSPStream, I just use pm2 for my video stream.
            The omxplayer is an overlay in all uses anyway, so I just ‘overlay’ it on top of the MM modules.
            I left space on the left side of the MagicMirror by only using top and bottom positions.
            pm2 controls the processes, like with MM (I enabled it using the same commands for MM, except that I used axis iso mm).

            That being said, I can try activating MMM-RTSPStream again to be able support a bit.

            pi@MagicPi:~ $ pwd
            /home/pi
            pi@MagicPi:~ $ cat axis.sh
            #!/bin/bash
            echo "Starting Axis stream ..."
            
            # No rotation
            #omxplayer --avdict rtsp_transport:tcp --live --video_queue 4 --fps 30 --win "0 625 590 957" rtsp://axisviewer:Trosknurt12@192.168.178.56/axis-media/media.amp?resolution=640x360
            
            # Rotate to match custom.css rotation
            # 640x360 == --win 'x1 y1 x2 y2' == "600 300 960 940" == x2 - x1 & y2 - y1
            omxplayer --avdict rtsp_transport:tcp --orientation 270 --live --video_queue 4 --fps 30 --win "600 300 960 940" rtsp://user:password@192.168.178.56/axis-media/media.amp?resolution=640x360

              I keep pretty much all modules as default (just like yours): calendar, event, weather now, forecast, news feed, and this stream video from my camera. That’s all I need.
              My screen is a 22" Dell monitor and I do not rotate it so it’s horizontal. But because the stream video window appears in the middle of the whole thing, the layout of the modules on the screen looks so bad so I hope I could find the way to aligned it (bottom-right) with the right edge of my weather now (which is at top-right)

              My info is below

              Starting stream stream1 with args: [
              “–avdict”,
              “rtsp_transport:tcp”,
              “–win”,
              “1268, 511, 1620, 753”,
              “–live”,
              “–video _queue”,

              My stream video window size is 640 x 360 px

                And from your config.js the moduleWidth, moduleHeight and the width and height from the stream, please.

                  from the config.js file:

                  moduleWidth: 640
                  moduleHeight: 360

                  The wdth and height from the stream is also 640 x 360 px

                  Is this you are looking for?

                    Yes, but cannot promise anything :-)

                    Cannot get the module to run on my MM.
                    Most probably a new install will work miracles, but I do not want to spend too much time /effort on it.

                      Yeah, anything would help but i totally understand that you have your MM working now and certainly do not want to mess that up!
                      If you could point me what code and where to look at, I may be able to play along… Right now, I have no idea what to adjust…
                      Thank you

                        One more question: what is the size of your display in pixels ?
