Hello, I installed MMM-RTSPtream and I’m having the following problem: my camera works perfectly; I can see the video when the taskbar is present. However, once I click on Magic Mirror to go into full-screen mode, my video disappears. What should I do? Thank you.

Hi @pat59,

why doesn’t Magic Mirror start in full screen mode? Can you show me the module config?

Hello and thank you for your feedback.

@sdetweil Hello, have you found anything unusual in JavaScript? Thank you

[sdetweil]

@pat59 no… but there have been many changes in the UI and tasking by the OS…

and MMM-RTSPtream has had trouble in the past…
as the background pgm used doesn’t blend well…

maybe try https://github.com/evroom/MMM-MPlayer

@pat59 Again my question: Why doesn’t Magic Mirror start in full screen mode? I think the problem is that neither VLC nor mplayer are inline in the Electron window. They are a separate window. And when you click on the Electron window the player window gets in the background.

[sdetweil]

@KristjanESPERANTO correct, the task keeps getting surfaced even tho the module said background.

Just another fun day in we only changed a few lines of code somewhere (not MagicMirror)

@sdetweil Hello, thank you. I will try it and get back to you. Thank you in advance. Sincerely.

Quick question: I installed MMM-MPlayer. Do I need to disable RTSPstream for the MPlayer module to work?

Thanks

[sdetweil]

@pat59 yes, one or the other

[pat59]

@sdetweil Hello, I installed MPlayer but it doesn’t work; the screen is black.

[pat59]

I uninstalled MPlayer and reinstalled RTSPTream, it works except that I still encounter the same problem

[sdetweil]

@pat59 black screen, what were the messages at MagicMirror startup time?

[pat59]

@sdetweil Good evening, no message, normal startup for the Raspberry Pi, normal startup for MagicMirrorr2, and a black screen, no message.

[sdetweil]

@pat59 can you show the messages

[pat59]

@sdetweil Good evening, there was no message displayed for MPlayer, so I uninstalled it in config.js and reinstalled RTSTseam. Everything is back to normal except that I still have the taskbar displayed. Thank you.

@pat59 I know. But if you keep changing we can’t debug what’s going on

There had to be at least one message for bolster in the startup messages.
