MMM-MPlayer
-
This is what I have in my config.js for MMM-MPlayer.
My problem is I can play big bunny and pretty much any video.
BUT I want to show my rtsp cameras like the github shows I can.
I installed mplayer and the videos play, so pretty sure I have the setup correct to that point. I am running this on Rpi 4 2gb ram off a ssd/usb .
Bullseye 64b MagicMirror 2.29 I used Sams install script and it installed flawlessly as usual…
Any help would be greatly appreciated. This is the only module running on this setup. I built it only so I could view my cameras on a bigger screen.
Since RSTMStream is dead anymore I was really excited to see something else that might work…{ module: "MMM-MPlayer", disabled: false, position: "middle_center", header: "MPlayer", config: { useTwoWindows: true, layout: "row", monitorAspect: 0, rotate: -1, windowSize: { width: 640, height: 360 }, windowPosition: { x: 5, y: 225 }, streamInterval: 30000, streams: { window1: [ "rtsp://192.168.1.32:554/live", ], window2: [ "rtsp://192.168.1.35:554/live", ] } } }, -
Hi @plainbroke,
Let’s see what we can do about it.
First be sure that the URL can be opened and shows your stream:
VLC Media Player File Open Network URL: rtsp://192.168.1.32:554/live OpenThen get some data from the logs:
$ pm2 flush $ pm2 restart MagicMirror $ sleep 15 (or simply count to 15) $ grep 'MMM-MPlayer' ~/.pm2/logs/MagicMirror-*.logAlso adding DEBUG will give some more information and since you only use one module, all output will be related to this module:
logLevel: ["INFO", "LOG", "WARN", "ERROR", "DEBUG"],Tailing the current log:
$ pm2 logs MagicMirror --lines 100Also try if a single stream will work:
(note, please adjust the indents when and where needed)$ vi ~/MagicMirror/config/config.js { module: 'MMM-MPlayer', disabled: false, position: 'middle_center', header: 'MPlayer', config: { useTwoWindows: false, layout: 'row', monitorAspect: 0, rotate: -1, windowSize: { width: 640, height: 360 }, windowPosition: { x: 5, y: 225 }, streamInterval: 30000, streams: { window1: [ 'rtsp://192.168.1.32:554/live', ] } } },I am using an 8 GB RAM Raspberry Pi 4b, perhaps there are memory constrains we are not aware of.
But when you say the mp4s are working …
To see the memory usage:
$ free -h -t -
I get this in the logs.
Also when I try running theVLC Media Player File Open Network URL: rtsp://192.168.1.32:554/live OpenI get this:

@evroom
Crap on a Cracker,
I was forgetting to put the login information in the url.
DUH, thanks for the help it works great now…
So if I want to show say 3 cameras 1 at a time I just add them to the window 1"rtsp://xxxxx:xxxxx@192.168.1.40:554/stream1", "rtsp://xxxxx:xxxxx@192.168.1.35:554/live", "rtsp://xxxxx:xxxxx@192.168.1.32:554/live",and now it actually works great.
Thank you so much for the module.
I have been looking for this for a long time.
I am so happy I can veiw my cameras again.
RTSPStream went byb bye due to no one wanting to work with it anymore…
Thank you again for this great moduel. -

Crap on a Cracker,Thank you again for this great moduel.
I like this expression!
I also waited a long time for this module.
Only made it available on Github and tweaked it a little.
When in January the new MM version comes out, I am finally going to reinstall my old setup.
Good to know that you got it solved. -

if you used develop branch today, on jan 1, you could use my upgrade script and it will switch you back to master and do the update…
no need to wait if you have time now…new release also needs a new version of node… SO much fun…
