@clakkentt if you use my backup/restore to capture your MM config
and build a new card ON the pi3, and install MM and restore the config
do you see the same problem?backup/restore here https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror-backup-restore
install/upgrade here https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts

@sdetweil
Yes the problem is the same. I initially had MM running on a rpi3, when I installed MMM-MPlayer, I noticed the taskbar showing every time there was a feed showing.
I started from scratch on an rpi4 and saw no problem but when I transferred the card to the rpi3 the issue came up again.Since I wanted to keep using the rpi3 for the MagicMirror I solved the problem by making the taskbar 0 pixels in height.

@clakkentt what do you mean by taskbar?
-
The desktop taskbar. On the raspberry the bar at the top of the screen.
-
@clakkentt it pops up over MagicMirror screen?
-
Yes, when the MPlayer RTSP stream is running
-
I don’t know if this is the cause but I am using vcgencmd to turn the display off and on and to do that I had to disable vc4-kms-v3d

@clakkentt crazy. i don’t know either
