MMM-MotionEye - surveillance video stream on your mirror!

Snille

@emos Hmm… I wounder if it is because you use an http link? Can you try to change it to an rtsp link?

emos

can i use rtsp for another MotionEye cam? Does it even have rtsp? :o

Snille

@emos Nah, you only need to use rtsp for the “network” cameras. The right one you have looks like a “locally” connected camera?

emos

the right one is local, correct

Hi Cato, thanks for this Module, I installed it and it works like a charm. One thing I like to ask you is the positioning of the module. I tried to arrange the module appearence pixel-precise with the help of the custom.ccs but was not successful. I added this to the custom.css and deleted the position definition in the config.js. Any idea what went wrong here :question: :question: :question:

.MMM-MotionEye {
 left : 700px;
 top: 1500px;
}

I’m really not sure since I’m not very deep into CSS. I would have to test it this weekend. By schedule is pretty tight…

I assume you have a very large screen since you’re putting Motion-Eye 1500 pixels down on it?!? :smiley:

Woody

Of cause, I’ve a more or less large screen but this is only one of some other positions I tried without success to prevent overlapping with other modules.
Would be great if you could help with this of cause spezific problem.
Thx in advance…

Hey there. My problem is, that I do not get an image one the screen, when using autohide.
It works without using autohide.
Is it true, that it appears - using autohide - if a motion is recognized?

So motioneye is recognizing correctly, but obviously it does not parse the info to the module.
this is my config:

	```{
	   module: 'MMM-MotionEye',
	   position: 'middle_center',
	    config: {
	        url: "http://motioneye:8081",
	        autoHide: true,
	        autoHideDelay:"10000",
	        debug: true,
	        animationSpeed: "2000",
	        width: "300",
    		   },
	},```

Can someone please post a screenshot of the motioneye-config (as seen above) how the settings should be set?

Thank You very much !!

Hi all,
Just started my adventure with the MagicMirror, running into some problems with streaming 2 ipcams into MM.
I installed Motioneye in the Rpi and also in the MM module.

Both ipcams are visable when i log into Motioneye (in my case: 192.168.1.105:8765) but only a small icon appears in the MagicMirror.
My config is:

{                       module: 'MMM-MotionEye',
			position: 'bottom_right',
			config: {
			url: "http://192.168.1.105:8765/motioneye/1",
			debug: true,
			}

I have tried all above mentioned ideas but to no succes.
The cams are installed in Motioneye with:
http://192.168.1.102:88/cgi-bin/CGIStream.cgi?cmd=GetMJStream&usr=XXX&pwd=XXX
RTSP give me an error.
Hope someone can help me out…

I have that more often than I can believe. That normally means motioneye crashed,. or something. there is no connection between MM and Motioneye.
I do the login ins my http://IP:8081 an see if it is running,. normally then MM reloads the full image.

Give it a try!

BTW is there a way to let motioneye run through pm2 ?
