[MMM-RTSPStream] - Video Streaming from Live Feeds & Security Cameras

[twosquirrels]

@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

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

Someone could help me with this problem?

Many thanks to You All
Peter

Try using the GL driver to rotate…

I’ll post my config.txt and autostart settings tonight, don’t have access to them right now.

Is it possible to define a stream for playing a local file (e.g. .mp4 or .avi)?

[acimail01]

works with

		{
			module: "MMM-RTSPStream",
			position: "middle_center",
			config: {
				autoStart			: true,
				rotateStreams		: false,
				rotateStreamTimeout	: 30,
				moduleWidth			: 354,
				moduleHeight		: 240,
				localPlayer			: 'omxplayer',
				shutdownDelay		: 0,

					stream1: {
						name: 'Test Stream',
						url: 'file:///home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-RTSPStream/Videos/Feuer.mp4',
					},
				}
		},

but no sound !

in bash console works with: omxplayer -o alsa Feuer.mp4
How to set hdmi sound as default ?

Just wanted to cross-post this in case people are looking in this thread for a way to monitor and restart streams that have stopped:

Perhaps you can share the config.js part for MMM-RTSPStream with us?

The pm2 log output for this module is useful too.
The part where it shows the applied coordinates.
