MMM-Ring: Displays a video stream of your Ring doorbell when someone rings your doorbell.

DustinBryant

I’ve exhausted everything I can think of. Your working with an ideal situation where everything is updated and fresh and still not able to get the stream. For some reason the videos aren’t getting dropped in that public folder for you when the event gets activated. Based on what you’ve provided it should be working.

Since I can’t recreate the condition on my end there’s not much I can do here. Your specific issue is the first I’ve seen or heard of. That layer of the module is utilizing the ring-api from dgreif which I have no contributions to.

If you’re adventurous enough and have a little bit of coding background you may try downloading his api and play with the browser example he has to see if you can get that working.

Sorry @sithlordhood !

Ok, thanks very much for helping out.

One final thing that i thought of was that i’m using the wired ethernet interface on the Pi, not the WiFi. Not sure if this matters, just thought it a bit odd that i did not get any data displayed in the Network tab?

Just to update - dont know whats changed but the module is working ok now! Thanks!

@Peter
It’s the same for me
I have nothing in “Network”
I have no “Public” directory !

Peter Leemon

@Peter-Leemon
Still no video
I don’t know if mmm-Ring works

DustinBryant

Unfortunately, I’ve since replaced my ring devices for something more localized. I do know recently Ring had an update that requires 2-factor authentication. You may want to try setting that up and following the directions on how to use it with mmm-ring.

Peter Leemon

out of curiosity what localized devices did you use and compatible with raspberry pi as well as MM?

Heads Up! -“Ring enables mandatory two-factor authentication”
Looks like 2FA is the new thing moving forward. I just started working on this module tonight and haven’t fully tested, but at least I know where to start now.

I did notice that the sample code in the site for setting up 2FA is missing a comma in case you miss it. https://github.com/DustinBryant/MMM-Ring/wiki/Two-Factor-Auth-(ring2faRefreshToken-config-option)
