[MMM-RTSPStream] - Video Streaming from Live Feeds & Security Cameras

Dear, I need help!

I am experiencing the following error while trying to start module configuration. When adding the line in config.js:

{
                    module: 'MMM-RTSPStream',
                    position: 'middle_center',
                    config: {
                        initialSetup: true
                   }
                },

I have the following error

[14:14:56.732] [ERROR]  WARNING! Could not validate config file. Starting with default configuration. Please correct syntax errors at or above this line: /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-RTSPStream/node_modules/semver/semver.js:1

Hi,
what do you expect to happen with this particular config?
Did you execute all the steps from the “Using the module” paragraph in
https://github.com/shbatm/MMM-RTSPStream
?
I would suggest to read the instructions once more and then let us know the result.

Success.

@evroom Hello, how are you ?

Thanks for answering me.

So if I didn’t have the error. I was hoping to be able to access the URL:

http: // your-mirror-ip: 8080 / MMM-RTSPStream / config.html

and proceed with the setup. However, the server does not go up. I can’t access the url. I believe the error I described is preventing it.

If you can, help me.

@iorifly
Okay, that makes sense.
Has been a while since I set it up myself, but I will take a look.
Cannot promise anything :-)

What are you trying / hoping to stream?

iorifly

@evroom Thanks for trying to help me.

My intention is to stream the video stream from my UBIQUITI cameras. In particular I would like to call a camera.

Hi,

had troubles opening that config.html myself.
Try this:

1/ Install the module using:

sh -c "$(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/shbatm/MMM-RTSPStream/develop/scripts/installer.sh)"

2/ Add the module to the config.js:

vi ~/MagicMirror/config/config.js

{
        module: 'MMM-RTSPStream',
	disabled: false,
        position: 'middle_center',
        config: {
            initialSetup: true,
        }
 }

3/ Restart mm:

pm2 restart mm

4/ Start Chromium Web Browser on Pi (direct or using VNC).
Use URL:

http://localhost:8080/MMM-RTSPStream/config.html

5/ Follow the instructions and save the config.

6/ Add the module to the config.js (replace the initial one):

vi ~/MagicMirror/config/config.js

7/ Flush the logs:

pm2 flush

8/ Restart mm:

pm2 restart mm

9/ Check the logs:

pm2 logs --lines 200

10/ Look for this line (when there are no blocking errors):

Starting stream stream1 using:

evroom

You can try this config for testing:

{
    module: "MMM-RTSPStream",
    position: "middle_center",
    header: "MMM-RTSPStream Test",
        config: {
        autoStart: true,
        rotateStreams: false,
        rotateStreamTimeout: 10,
        moduleWidth: 640,
        moduleHeight: 360,
        localPlayer: 'omxplayer',
        remotePlayer: 'none',
        showSnapWhenPaused: true,
        remoteSnaps: true,
        stream1: {
            name: 'Buck Bunny',
            url: 'rtsp://wowzaec2demo.streamlock.net/vod/mp4:BigBuckBunny_115k.mov',
            frameRate: 'undefined',
            snapshotType: 'url',
            snapshotRefresh: 10,
            width: 640,
            height: 360,
            },
        }
},

Hello i have a similar problem,

I can’t see my ip- camera stream on the mirror. The stream can be seen by entering the IP in the VLC player but not in MagicMirror. In the MagicMirror i can only see a white frame.

The recommendation
rtsp://wowzaec2demo.streamlock.net/vod/mp4:BigBuckBunny_115k.mov
implement in config.js i followeld.
After a restart I could see the film in the mirror, but unfortunately only once, I swear I don’t have anything in the config. changed. Now I have only a white frame on the Mirror.

I had to adjust the script from the configurator by a comma, otherwise the file config.js could not be found.

My entry in the config.js for IP.camera:
{
module: “MMM-RTSPStream”,
position: “middle_center”,
header: “test1”,
config: {
autoStart: true,
rotateStreams: true,
rotateStreamTimeout: 10,
moduleWidth: 354,
moduleHeight: 240,
localPlayer: ‘vlc’,
remotePlayer: ‘none’,
showSnapWhenPaused: true,
remoteSnaps: true,
shutdownDelay: 12,
stream1: {
name: ‘HaustÃƒr’,
url: ‘rtsp://XXXX:XXXXX@192.XXX.2.108:80/cam/realmonitor?channel=2&subtype=0’,
frameRate: ‘undefined’,
snapshotType: ‘url’,
snapshotRefresh: 10,
width: undefined,
height: undefined,
},
}
},

My entry in the config.js for Testvideo:

{
module: “MMM-RTSPStream”,
position: “middle_center”,
header: “MMM-RTSPStream Test”,
config: {
autoStart: true,
rotateStreams: false,
rotateStreamTimeout: 10,
moduleWidth: 640,
moduleHeight: 360,
localPlayer: ‘omxplayer’,
remotePlayer: ‘none’,
showSnapWhenPaused: true,
remoteSnaps: true,
stream1: {
name: ‘Buck Bunny’,
url: ‘rtsp://wowzaec2demo.streamlock.net/vod/mp4:BigBuckBunny_115k.mov’,
frameRate: ‘undefined’,
snapshotType: ‘url’,
snapshotRefresh: 10,
width: 640,
height: 360,
},
}
},

step 7) pm2 flush

step 8) restart MM

Can someone help me, to see the ip-camera on the magic-mirror ?
thanks,

BKeyport

Try the other stream types. VLC don’t work within the magic mirror. I had to edit the string to get it to even launch using the arguments supplied by the module author, and then launching it under MM’s system didn’t ever work right, would produce a blank window. change the local player to omxplayer or ffmpeg.
