        Hi,

        I used this Sunday to setup a second Pi, whilst watching F1.
        Used a new SD, installed Debian Buster and Magic Mirror v2.8.0.

        After I made sure I did not have any errors after rebooting, restarting MM, etc, I setup MMM-RTSPStream.
        It now works for Bucks Bunny, my IP cam and my SAT receiver.
        I can even rotate 2 SAT channels.

        I also tested the little fix with --audio_queue 4and that works to (although I cannot check audio, as I have no speaker).

        It does not say that this method will work for you (my RTSP was dead as a dodo), but it could be something to consider.
        I will play a bit with single quotes, double quotes, etc, as that is a potential problem in your URL.

        And it still leaves the issue with selecting a channel at will, through a trigger.

        MagicMirror version: 2.30.0
        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)
        Raspbian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm)

          Hi and sorry for the late response.

          Sounds pretty good and promising!

          How do you “rotate” your SAT channels? Does it change based on time (after x seconds)?
          For me it could be good enough to have a few channels to change, of course better to select from a small list.

            In the config part add

            rotateStreams: true,
            rotateStreamTimeout: 60,
            

            and add 2 or more streams (stream1 and stream2).

              Silly question - is there a way within the RTSP protocal to detect when the camera detects motion, so you can trigger something? What I was thinking is to flash the screen background if the camera sees motion…

              Thanks!

                Is there a way to hide the play/pause button? I’m not using a mouse on my mirror so it’s useless. Also, i’s creating its own separate gigantic white box that doesn’t line up with my actual video stream (which I have to force its position using moduleOffset).

                  The white box is easy to get rid of:

                  In ~/MagicMirror/css/custom.css

                  /* This removes the white border around the RTSP feed(s). */
                  .MMM-RTSPStream .innerWrapper {
                    border: 0;
                  }
                  

                  As far as the play button, I’ve never seen it, so I don’t know how to get rid of it, I don’t use keyboard or mouse on my mirror.

                  FYI, other css that might be useful:

                  /* This shrinks the left and right regions so that RTSPStream don't overlap. */
                  .region.right .module-content,
                  .region.left .module-content {
                    min-width: 450px;
                    max-width: 450px;
                  }
                  

                  – B

                    @BKeyport That worked to remove the white box, thanks!

                    I’m still struggling with getting the module to just show where I want it. I don’t know why it doesn’t just listen to “position” like every other module where I can tell them all to be top_right and they’d all line up in the appropriate order. I’m fighting with moduleOffset entering random numbers to see if I can find a decent spot, but it still overlaps, causes indentation, and is just a mess. Then often times the module will just disappear after being on screen for a couple minutes.

                      Odd - I’m having no problem moving it around - although, if you’re using OMXPlayer, it’s overlaying on top of the screen, it won’t play nice with other modules in the same position…

                        Hello, I’m Peter,
                        when I add RTSTStream to my MagicMirror, I have a little problem with RTSPStream module.

                        When display is in normal mode on 27’ screen, everything is ok, picture from Cam is good, normal dimensions etc
                        https://photos.app.goo.gl/czoZvwryGmqfJRDg6

                        But when in /boot/config.txt in rpi3 the display_rotation=1, picture form cam is cut like on screen.

                        https://photos.app.goo.gl/VRycUb7zMw9LQVxh6

                        Someone could help me with this problem?

                        Many thanks to You All
                        Peter
