MMM-MotionEye - surveillance video stream on your mirror!

[Woody]

@Cato
Hi, I had a bit more time over the weekend. By trial an error I found out that the problem is related to my motioneye URL string providing userid and password. Apparently the Electron browser can’t handle this. After disabling authorization in Motioneye the problem was solved. In another MM installation on a Pi Zero I use Midori as browser and this works since month without problems. Thanks for MMM-Motioneye and your help in this case.

which camera du you suggest? I never had one. Should work for and in my garden (to observe the kids)

Just have a look for the noir camera. Have a look for amazon.com. There is an official cam - I think - by the raspberry company. But any other that support the onboard psi cam plug is imho better than usb cam. But that is your decision.

I had that same issue. I ended up just creating a few mmm-mogioneye module entries in the config file

Did you ever get an answer back on this one? I am having the same problem. I see everything fine without autohide active, but if I activate autohide, I see it for a bit during page load and never again after. I get detected motion emails and photo uploads so the detection isn’t the problem. It just doesn’t get fed to the mirror module somehow. Maybe my Web-hook config is off?

It would be helpful to know if you fixed your issue and how you did it.

Hey, SdeGeata
No, actually I didn’t

I circumvented it by setting up a motioneyeos raspberry pi zero. As I needed the larger image on my Magicmirror I used “fast…?” option, which does not provide any of the motion activities,. what was fine to me.
I do think, this is not merely a problem of motioneye, but of the MM its self.
With every update of MM the Gap went bigger, I got more problems.
Now, streaming the motioneyeos to two MMs it is more steady, nonetheless I do habe outages. I don’t see a picture,. although my browser directed to motioneyeos shows an actual one. Restarting MM solves that issue- normally,…
Good look to You !

@Binog

Thanks for the info. I’ll keep trying stuff out and see what happens.

@Cato
So how do we use that Webhook URL to trigger the hidden module. I have been screwing with it for days trying to get it to work. Can you clarify the config for that?

@Cato
I really want to use the AutoHide feature. But the stream is fixed and always displayed. Is there any possibility…?

	{
		module: "MMM-MotionEye",
		position: "bottom_left",
		config: {
			url: "http://pihole:8081",
			autoHide: true,
			autoHideDelay: "10000",
			forcedRefreshInterval: 60000,
			width: "400px",
			debug: false
				}
	},

@oberfragger
ok. solved.

Somehow it was working after an hour or so.

Also- you have to enable access to the mirror via
address: “0.0.0.0” and whitelist

The the commands http://mirror:8080/motioneye and http://mirror:8080/motioneye/hide are working.

Bonjour à tous, comme beaucoup apparement, j’ai installé le module motioneye sur mon MM avec ces lignes dans mon fichier “config”:

{
	module: 'MMM-MotionEye',
		position: 'bottom_left',
		config: {
		url: "http://monip:8081",
		forcedRefreshInterval: 60000,
		width: 400,
		debug: true
			}
		},

Mais quand je lance Magic Mirror , j’ai une petite icone avec une image cassée.
Lorsque je rentre cette adresse ip :“http://monip:8081”, dans mon navigateur sur mon pc , je tombe sur une page qui me dit : “ce site n’autorise pas la connexion”

J’ai essayé de voir si sur motioneye il n’y avait pas des autorisations de connexions a mettre mais je ne vois rien .

Infos peut etre importante, motioneye est installer sur docker à travers portainer sur une VM!

Merci pour votre aide

@piwy Salut Piwy;

Essaye de changer des paramètres dans motion.conf & motioneye.conf. Il ne sont pas accessible de la GUI. Voir avec Terminal; /etc/motioneye/motion.conf et trouve webcontrol_localhost, si c’est “on” change ça pour “off”.

En /etc/motioneye/motioneye.conf Change motion_control_localhost true pour motion_control_localhost false .

Essaye ça.
