      no port specified, has camera ip that worked with vlc.

      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.

          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

            Could you please change your admin password of your cam to something without characters like ! and & ?
            When really needed, use + and/or _.

            Perhaps omxplayer has a parsing problem.
            Even tough we use single quotes to avoid this.
            I get the same error when using ?.

            Then try (with the changed password):

            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'

            You can also try the vlc player ‘trick’.
            IMHO it should not ask for user & password.

            Also try to play with the port.
            Either nothing, or :80 or :554.

            Btw, 192.168.2.140.2.108 is not a valid IP address.
            It is either 192.168.2.108 or 192.168.2.140.
            I guess 192.168.2.140 is your MM / Rasperry Pi IP and 192.168.2.108 is your Dahua cam IP.

            Good luck.

                Yes, sorry about that, vi is a text editor.
                Close it with :q! or [ESC]:q! (where [ESC] is the escape key)
                Then use the editor of your choice, like nano.

                nano ~/MagicMirror/config/config.js

                  I am sorry too :-)

                  Did you change the actual password of your cam or just changed the text in the admin:roland!?1971 part ?

                  I do not have a Dahua cam, so I do not know where and how to set it.
                  Probably there is a GUI (a web page) where you can do this.
                  I guess you can open it like this:
                  http://192.168.2.108
                  But once you did set it to the password we are seeing right now, so you ought to know :-)
