Looks like you are doomed to watch Buck Bunny for the rest of your Magic Mirror life :-)You did not get an error with — hw in your previous mail.
It did return with the prompt, right ?
You did not have to stop it using control C, I mean to say?
Normally omxplayer exits with: have a nice day ; )Can you try
/usr/bin/omxplayer --genlog --hw --win '351 968 703 1210' rtsp://192.168.178.1:554/?avm=1&freq=394&bw=8&msys=dvbc&mtype=256qam&sr=6900&specinv=0&pids=0,16,17,18,20,266,593,594,595,598,1801,1802,1803And check the log file.

Hopefully not…! we may need to find another one if we cannot fix it… :-)
No i didn’t stop it using control C.

Okay, I think it is stumbling over the ampersands in your RTSP URL.
Try it with the RTSP part single quoted, like:$ /usr/bin/omxplayer --genlog --hw --win '351 968 703 1210' 'rtsp://192.168.178.1:554/?avm=1&freq=394&bw=8&msys=dvbc&mtype=256qam&sr=6900&specinv=0&pids=0,16,17,18,20,266,593,594,595,598,1801,1802,1803'Quotes work in general. Tested it on friend Buck Bunny.

Allright! :thumbs_up:
i have a picture overlay with the omxplayer showing the live stream TV signal!
Unfortunately it runs for a second and stops, continuously . > (buffer, cache,…?)
Audio is not there correctly. It sounds like white noise for a second and stops continuously.

Getting somewhere.
Now you need to slowly add additional parameters.
Like --live --video_queue 4 -
i might be wrong. I added it here and received the error message “…file not found”:
/usr/bin/omxplayer --genlog --hw --win --live --video_queue 4 '351 968 703 1210' 'rtsp://192.168.178.1:554/?avm=1&freq=394&bw=8&msys=dvbc&mtype=256qam&sr=6900&specinv=0&pids=0,16,17,18,20,266,593,594,595,598,1801,1802,1803'Do i need to add those parameters somewhere else?

Thanks!
OK, positive effect on the video, running pretty smooth now!
Audio still missing… -
@bill22
With Buck Bunny you had audio, right?
Audio over hdmi or audio jack?Try adding --audio_queue 4
Then try removing --hw -
yes with Buck Bunny the audio was there.
I use audio over HDMI.
adding
--audio_queue 4didn’t change the behaviour .
removed
--hwAudio is working smoothly together with video ! !

@bill22
Great!!Now you could try to enable the RTSPStream module again.

Look at the pm2 log for clues.

Thank you very much for your guidance getting it to this point !!!
Great that it is working so far!
Have a good evening and i will follow your recommendations and let you know the outcome!

Try this

Here a procedure on how to use omxplayer as an addition to MM (without MMM-RTSPStream).
This is how I use it for my Axis IP cam.
You might need to reposition a few modules to make place for the overlaid stream.pi@MagicPi:~ $ cd pi@MagicPi:~ $ vi avm_stream.sh #!/bin/bash echo "Starting AVM stream ..." /usr/bin/omxplayer --genlog --live --video_queue 4 --win '351 968 703 1210' 'rtsp://192.168.178.1:554/?avm=1&freq=394&bw=8&msys=dvbc&mtype=256qam&sr=6900&specinv=0&pids=0,16,17,18,20,266,593,594,595,598,1801,1802,1803' pi@MagicPi:~ $ chmod +x avm_stream.sh pi@MagicPi:~ $ pm2 start avm_stream.sh i@MagicPi:~ $ pm2 save i@MagicPi:~ $ pm2 statusInstead of vi you of course can use nano or so.
When it runs you can remove the --genlog option.
And I kind of lost track which exact command worked for you at the end. -
The command working with the omx player is:
/usr/bin/omxplayer --genlog --live --video_queue 4 --audio_queue 4 --win '1 720 503 1010' 'rtsp://192.168.178.1:554/?avm=1&freq=394&bw=8&msys=dvbc&mtype=256qam&sr=6900&specinv=0&pids=0,16,17,18,20,266,593,594,595,598,1801,1802,1803' -

Hi,
Overall it looks good I would say.
The ERR are a concern, but I do not see a connection with RTSP.
Give the/home/pi/.npm/_logs/2019-07-09T20_38_42_696Z-debug.logand/home/pi/.npm/_logs/2019-07-09T20_38_45_348Z-debug.loga clue ?
Or when you restart mm, the newly generated log files ?With
$ ps -eaf | grep omxplayer | grep -v grepandpm2 status, are the PIDs for omxplayer and omx_stream1 stable, or do they change ?Could you do ?
$ pstree -ap `pgrep omxplayer | head -1`; pstree -ap `pm2 status | grep omx_stream1 | awk '{print $10}'` -
The pstree command might not work when the width of your terminal is not enough.
Make it wide enough to have pm2 status show the PID column.
