here is what i found. before it worked well, I think the best is to delete the plugin properly but I do not know how?

Okay, this looks like a bit more than a “truncated stream” issue.
That you see something at all is a miracle, I would say :-)

First of all, please use the </> button when providing output or pieces of config.
Select the text and press on the </> button.
Makes it a bit easier to read.

You can disable the module by putting ‘disabled: true’ in the config.js.
With the value false you can enable it again later.

module: "MMM-RTSPStream",
    disabled: true,

Or remove the whole module entry, but this is not necessary when there are no syntax errors.

Then restart mm.
I always use

pm2 restart mm

provided mm is the pm2 app name.
See

pm2 status

To remove the module completely you can simply remove or disable it from the config.js and then delete the structure

rm -rf ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-RTSPStream

Or move it out of the way when you want to attempt a second try:
mv ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-RTSPStream ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-RTSPStream.old

OK, it’s appearing more and more like the author of this module is MIA, and the module isn’t working well enough anymore to get a consistent stream (ffmpeg is the only thing that works at all in my installs, and even that will crash and burn every 3-6 hours, or get corrupted) - is there anything out there to replace this module?

I redid an installation of the module but it is the same, the display is partial. Do you have another module to advise me? Thank you

@BKeyport
Depends on what you want to stream and with what you want to stream it with.
I, for example, am streaming a single Axis IP cam (supposing it is h.264) using omxplayer. Standalone, controlled by pm2.
The MMM-RTSPStream does work, but I was having problems placing the stream on the screen to my likings.
You may need to check this list if there is a module that suites your needs:

So you got rid of the errors in the pm2 log?

pm2 flush
pm2 restart mm
pm2 logs --lines 200

Do you see an entry like this?

Starting stream stream1 with args:

If yes, what are the arguments?

Using vlc or omxplayer?

ps -eaf | grep -v grep | egrep 'omxplayer|vlc'

Still difficult to determine what you mean by partial.
I think it is looking good.
Perhaps you want to get rid of the white frame?

vi ~/MagicMirror/css/custom.css

Add:

.MMM-RTSPStream .innerWrapper {
  border-style: none;
  //border: 1px solid red;
}

Merci de votre aide,
J’ai mis quelques post plus avant le resultat du log pm2.
Pareil pour l’affichage on vois sur les copies ecran qu’il manque une partie de l’image sur la droite.
C’est VLC qui est utilisé mais j’ai mis omx et c’est pareil.

Dear, I need help!

I am experiencing the following error while trying to start module configuration. When adding the line in config.js:

{
                    module: 'MMM-RTSPStream',
                    position: 'middle_center',
                    config: {
                        initialSetup: true
                   }
                },

I have the following error

[14:14:56.732] [ERROR]  WARNING! Could not validate config file. Starting with default configuration. Please correct syntax errors at or above this line: /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-RTSPStream/node_modules/semver/semver.js:1

Hi,
what do you expect to happen with this particular config?
Did you execute all the steps from the “Using the module” paragraph in
https://github.com/shbatm/MMM-RTSPStream
?
I would suggest to read the instructions once more and then let us know the result.

Success.

@evroom Hello, how are you ?

Thanks for answering me.

So if I didn’t have the error. I was hoping to be able to access the URL:

http: // your-mirror-ip: 8080 / MMM-RTSPStream / config.html

and proceed with the setup. However, the server does not go up. I can’t access the url. I believe the error I described is preventing it.

If you can, help me.
