- 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. -
yes, thats correct, querry follows after confirmation the url. then the stream follows
thanks for your help.

User, passwot from camera, id from raspberry, port as suggested,
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 :-) -
@evroom he did that
pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ 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'no port specified, has camera ip that worked with vlc.

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 … -

Sorry, then I misread.
I read:url: ‘rtsp://admin:roland!?1971@192.168.2.140.2.108:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=2&subtype=0’,So now I am confused :-)

@Number_5 said in [MMM-RTSPStream] - Video Streaming from Live Feeds & Security Cameras:
thats my config.js
So it means you were able to get the RTSP config to open?
And when you entered the URL for your cam, did it show you a video stream from your cam?
I forgot if it does do that, or just builds the config part for config.js. -

What bothers me, is the fact that vlc did not take the supplied user and password, but queried again for it.
omxplayer will not do that; will just fail to open. -
@evroom i was looking at the standalone omxplayer commandline we asked him to execute, not the
config -
i have done 2 things.
a) create the textfile and opened it in the vlc player on raspberry - then answered the querry (user and id)j, so i could saw the camerastream
b) followed your steps:
step 6
Add the module to the config.js (replace the initial one):
vi ~/MagicMirror/config/config.js
after execute the commando "vi ~/MagicMirror/config/config.js " in commandline , the config.js openend
