Need help with MMM-MQTTbridge not "communicating" with MMM-RTSPStream

Cr4z33

@sdetweil it’s OK mate and thanks for having tried to help me. :)

Let’s hope someone can come up with a working solution soon.

sdetweil

@Cr4z33 looking further at mqttbridge it also logs receipt of the notification from the subscription

so that tells me it did not receive info from mqtt

Cr4z33

@sdetweil I am not quite sure that I understood.

Are you saying it’s a module’s bug or is it needed further coding I should add (somewhere)?

sdetweil

@Cr4z33 im saying the module will report when it receives the mqtt info. it did not report. sooooo it did not receive the info

why i do not know

Cr4z33

@sdetweil hmmm I see.

I wonder if there’s actually another way to see the doorbell stream when the button is pressed?

There’s a button sensor entity for it in Home Assistant.

sdetweil

@Cr4z33 i dont know, but MQTTBridge was not informed of the button press as you expected

is your other bridge code running? you mentioned you had some app talking to the doorbell and publishing the mqtt message

is the doorbell an mqtt device , fed thru zigbee2mqtt for homeassistant?
or is there a native integration?
i would expect the doorbell to NOT publish to mqtt directly
it would be a tiny market to add and support that code IN the doorbell firmware

@Cr4z33 you could build an HA automation to send the MQTT message on button push

But then again nothing would happen.

I mean I’ve already DahuaVTO2MQTT in the middle and I used the right line taken from its console, but here we are. 😅

@Cr4z33 something is not sending the mqtt message

bell -> ha automation -> mqtt -> mqttbridge -> rtsp…
should work

for me, this works

alexa-> nodered -> mqtt > ha automation -> mqtt -> mirror_app -> screen off

And you are using this MQTT module on the smart mirror or?
