      It means the mirror id is not the raspberry pi?

      I don’t see that (mirror id) in the doc for this module

      i do see this for testing the camera connection

      Testing a camera feed
      To test to make sure you have a working url for a camera feed: create a text file with the URL as the first and only line in the file. Save the file as .strm and open the file with a video player like VLC.

      unfortuantely I can’t use this module on my dev system as there is no omxplayer…

        One more thing to try. Just leave out the port altogether.
        I use it without specifying the port.

        omxplayer --genlog --avdict rtsp_transport:tcp --win 786,424,1138,666 --live --video_queue 4 --fps 30 --no-osd 'rtsp://admin:roland!?1971@192.168.2.108/cam/realmonitor?channel=2&subtype=0'

              User, passwot from camera, id from raspberry, port as suggested, but with port 80 the real port its also not working.

                1. query answered

                Did vlc player come with this query for user and password?
                The reason for supplying it in the URL is to not have to supply user and password.
                So, perhaps omxplayer has the same issue, but it will not ask for user and password like vlc player does.
                When vlc did not ask for the user and password, then we know the URL is correct, or at least can be parsed correct.

                    I suggested to NOT use a port, so to ditch the :80 or :554.
                    And when using the omxplayer command, you will need to supply the cam IP.
                    Does your spelling check change the word IP in id??
                    I know it can be confusing, but you will need to read things right in order for us (the community) to be able to help you. He says in a friendly tone and manner :-)

                        Then we might have a parsing issue with your URL.
                        I think your password may cause a problem.
                        The ! an ? may cause a problem as they have meaning for your bash shell.
                        Have to think on that …
