      @sdetweil If you read it, They’re renaming the OS.

          @sdetweil I read it as “Going forward” - meaning all releases after the date of announcement. But, as it’s still debian based under the hood, the commands would be the same (Or apt-get instead)

            You know, it figures… I say it’s stable, and it’s back to pre-PI 4 tricks. It’ll run for about two days before crashing, but that’s a lot better than pre-may2020 Buster - which was 5 minutes at the most.

                Updating didn’t solve the problem. Just wondering…I’ve seen recent references to using OMXplayer independent of MM2. Does this mean that the OMXplayer window is on top of the MM2 screen or somehow incorporated into it. Could someone give me a little push into understanding this?

                  When using the module or not, omxplayer always will be an overlay on top of your MM display.

                  Test if it works at all (example for an Axis IP camera):

                  $ omxplayer --avdict rtsp_transport:tcp --live --video_queue 4 --fps 30 --win "0 625 590 957" rtsp://user:password@192.168.178.56/axis-media/media.amp?resolution=640x360
                  

                  With log:

                  $ omxplayer --genlog --avdict rtsp_transport:tcp --live --video_queue 4 --fps 30 --win "0 0 640 360" rtsp://user:password@192.168.178.56/axis-media/media.amp?resolution=640x360
                  

                  The positioning of the stream can be a bit of a pain.
                  Size of video stream:
                  (x2 - x1) x (y2 - y1) = 640 x 360

                  To use it under control of pm2 (iso of vi you also can use nano):

                  $ cd /home/pi
                  $ vi 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://user:password@192.168.178.56/axis-media/media.amp?resolution=640x360
                  
                  $ pm2 start axis.sh
                  $ pm2 save
                  

                  To see it run:

                  $pm2 status
                  

                  To restart it:

                  $ pm2 restart axis
                  

                  To stop it:

                  $ pm2 stop axis
                  

                  To remove it from pm2:

                  $ pm2 delete axis

                    I’m just getting the “have a nice day” error. What would the most basic omxplayer command be? I just want to see the Wyze rtsp stream anywhere on the RPi 4 screen. I’ve tried: omxplayer rtsp://:@IP address and I get the “have a nice day” error.

                      Can you see if the omxplayer.log gives a clue?
                      And what would your VLC url look like?

                      It can be that your cam or codec is not supported.

                        @dwburger Try this:

                        https://www.ispyconnect.com/man.aspx?n=Wyzecam

                        get a URL from them, then use that URL directly in OMXPlayer…

                        omxplayer [URL]

                        No other options, YET.

                        once you get that going, you can position and set FPS, etc.
