So if the video area matches the module area (the red border in this moment) then it is okay for you?

Could you still till try this?

„Could you briefly test it with width and height commented out ?“

@CyruS1337 said in Cronjob:

I have always used the command sudo crontab -e and with this it did not work.

Just to clarify.

Normally you are user pi: $ who am I

So crontab -e will work for the pi user.
Using sudo crontab -e will change the crontab for the root user.

Now how can you tell what is what ?

For the user pi:
$ sudo crontab -l -u pi
which is the same as
$ crontab -l
For the user root:
$ sudo crontab -l -u root

Furthermore, when you have activated the root crontab, then the command will run as root, in the root (/) directory.
In this case pm2 reload command will search for the mm.sh script under / and will not find it.
Whereas when activated the pi crontab, the mm.sh script will be searched in the /home/pi directory, where it should be, and it will work.

Use pm2 show mmto show the details on mm under pm2.
Then you will understand it better.

Cron messages normally are directed to /var/log/cron.log, but on my system it is not directed:

$ grep cron /etc/rsyslog.conf
#cron.*				/var/log/cron.log

To see the cron messages, when not in cron.log:

$ tail -F /var/log/syslog | grep CRON

[ On my system I see CRON messages for root, although I do not have root crontab entries. There is a crond running that runs alongside $ systemctl status cron.]

Have fun

Any idea how I can move the video feed to fit the red border frame and, do not cover the complimentary wordings?

I would try this:

Change the config.js:

:
:
moduleWidth: 468,
moduleHeight: 253,
:
:
        width: 450,
        height: 253,

Change the MMM-RTSPStream.css:

width: 468px; /* Video width + 2*border + 2*padding */
height: 253px;

@jngo said in [MMM-RTSPStream] - Video Streaming from Live Feeds & Security Cameras:

the “-win” is now “1127, 512, 1767, 872”

Could you briefly test it with width and height commented out ?

//  width: 352px; /* Video width + 2*border + 2*padding */
//  height: 242px;

Just to see what is happening then.

@costascontis said in [MMM-RTSPStream] - Video Streaming from Live Feeds & Security Cameras:

how can i test with omxplayer that my camera link is playing ok?

You can test it standalone with:

$ omxplayer --avdict rtsp_transport:tcp --live --video_queue 4 --fps 30 --win "0 0 640 360" rtsp://[rrtsp_uri]

PS

Now the coordinates confuse me, but make sense (X-axis, Y-axis)

—win x1,   y1 , x2,   y2
—win 0,    0,   640,  360

Size of video stream:
(x2 - x1) x (y2 - y1) =  640 x 360

If you edit your custom.css file and restart MM then you can see the module position better:

$ vi /home/pi/MagicMirror/css/custom.css
:
:
.MMM-RTSPStream .innerWrapper {
  //border-style: none;
  border: 1px solid red;
}

You can use the editor of your liking of course.

Btw, I see (wrong ??) fixed values MMM-RTSPStream.css:

$ cat /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-RTSPStream/MMM-RTSPStream.css
:
:
.MMM-RTSPStream .innerWrapper {
  position: relative;
  width: 352px; /* Video width + 2*border + 2*padding */
  height: 242px;
  border: 1px solid white;
  /*float: left;*/
  display: inline-block;
  text-align: center;
  margin: 2px;
}

So, whatever your settings are in config.js, the result will be the same.
I would try to change it to:

width: 658px; /* Video width + 2*border + 2*padding */
height: 360px;

And then check pm2 logs for the --win settings it results to.
Or even comment it out and see what happens:

//  width: 352px; /* Video width + 2*border + 2*padding */
//  height: 242px;

Let me know the result and the pm2 log output (–win part).

@jngo
If I understand omxplayer correct and did the calculations right, then this is what you see.

Basically you are seeing a streaming window of just 334x242.
I do not know where the model window is, but I suppose it is on the same location.

@jngo
One more question: what is the size of your display in pixels ?

@jngo said in [MMM-RTSPStream] - Video Streaming from Live Feeds & Security Cameras:

Is this you are looking for?

Yes, but cannot promise anything

Cannot get the module to run on my MM.
Most probably a new install will work miracles, but I do not want to spend too much time /effort on it.

And from your config.js the moduleWidth, moduleHeight and the width and height from the stream, please.
