@Shockwave

thanks for the tip.
indeed changing the URL like you mentioned works in VLC. I can see the video image.
But still didn’t worked on the MM.
So I adapted the passwords.
Now all works fine.

@kasperb
Re-installed - loaded wip branch and now it’s working - thx

@shbatm

re-installed module, changed IPcams password and removed the ‘%’
Result: No live stream.
swiched module to wip branch for usage with omxplayer:
Result OK, I can see the live stream from the IPCAM - so that is working.

so thanks for the feedback.

Switched back to master branch
started in dev mode.
error info see picture

Hi,
Can’t get this up and running.
tried to figure out the problem but as i’m newbie i’m missing the skills to locate the problem.
what I have done so far:
Tested my Foscam stream with VLC. This didn’t worked either. error message:

//Uw invoer kan niet geopend worden:
VLC kon de MRL 'rtsp://garden:garden1000%@192.168.1.241:1052/Videomain' niet openen. Controleer het logboek voor details.

then tested VLC with default stream - and this is working fine.
Next installed omxplayer and applied my camera stream as follows.

//sudo omxplayer -o hdmi rtsp://garden:garden1000%@192.168.1.241:1052/videoMain

Video codec omx-h264 width 1280 height 720 profile 66 fps 8.333333
Audio codec pcm_mulaw channels 1 samplerate 8000 bitspersample 8
Subtitle count: 0, state: off, index: 1, delay: 0
V:PortSettingsChanged: 1280x720@8.33 interlace:0 deinterlace:0 anaglyph:0 par:1.00 display:0 layer:0 alpha:255 aspectMode:0

This works perfect, getting full image on the display.
conclusion: software is OK - just weird that my stream is not working on VLC.
could it because password has special char ‘%’ in it?

as omxplayer seams to work, I went back to config and added omxplayer.
switched to the wip branch.
started mirror - nothing happens - i get a blank screen. - below my config

//{
		            module: 'MMM-RTSPStream',
			    classes: 'default everyone',
		            position: 'middle_center',
		            config: {
		                autoStart: true,
		                rotateStreams: false,
		                rotateStreamTimeout: 10,
		                showSnapWhenPaused: false,
		                moduleWidth: 354,
		                moduleHeight: 240,
				localPlayer: 'omxplayer',
		                stream1: {
		                    name: 'Webcam 1 Test Stream',
		                    url: 'rtsp://garden:garden1000%@192.168.1.241:1052/videoMain',
		                    snapshotUrl: '',
		                    snapshotRefresh: 10, // Seconds
		                    frameRate: "25",
		                    port: 9999,
		                }
		            }
      		  },

without omxplayer and master branch active, I see the video play icon on the mirror, but nothing is displayed.

any ideas help to get this running would be great.

Also installed MMM-IP webcam but also no image from the webcam.

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

I can’t get this working.
So i’ll started to do some independent test.
installed VLC player and then put my camera rtsp stream into VLC.
Getting this message: vlc can’ t open rtsp://userxxxx:pwxxxxx%@192.168.1.241:xxxx/Videomain.

next stream in VLC plays perfect
rtsp://184.72.239.149/vod/mp4:BigBuckBunny_115k.mov

then I installed OMXplayer
Loaded following stream:

//sudo omxplayer -o hdmi rtsp://JSTAL:xxxxx@192.168.1.241:1052/videoMain

This works fine, full videoscreen of my IPcam.

then I modified config as follows

//{
		            module: 'MMM-RTSPStream',
			    classes: 'default everyone',
		            position: 'middle_center',
		            config: {
		                autoStart: true,
		                rotateStreams: false,
		                rotateStreamTimeout: 10,
		                showSnapWhenPaused: false,
		                moduleWidth: 354,
		                moduleHeight: 240,
				localPlayer: 'omxplayer',
		                stream1: {
		                    name: 'Webcam 1 Test Stream',
		                    url: 'rtsp://JSTAL:xxxxxxxx@192.168.1.241:1052/videoMain',
		                    snapshotUrl: '',
		                    snapshotRefresh: 10, // Seconds
		                    frameRate: "25",
		                    port: 9999,
		                }
		            }
      		  },

conclusion so far, installed software is OK

‘xxxxx’ in the rtsp stream is where i put my password.
password contains special char ‘%’ - can the be the reason of VLC not showing the stream.

so i’m stuck…
any idea’s to solve are welcome.

@cowboysdude
works like a charm now.

much appriciated !!

@cowboysdude

just installed, but got an error -

Load script: modules/MMM-Dnews//MMM-Dnews.js
MMM-Dnews.js Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)
loader.js:190 Error on loading script: modules/MMM-Dnews//MMM-Dnews.js
script.onerror @ loader.js:190

Would like to make a printscreen, but i can’t manage to do that on the raspberry.

(indeed Dutch news, not Danish - thanks goprojojo )
Edit: added screenprints

@cowboysdude

You are amazing.
Never thought it would be realized.
Had a hard day on the job today, but this makes my day.
I’m going to install now.
Thanks

Johan

hi Cowboysdude,

I like your modules, nice work.
I was wondering if you could modify or make a separate module for the dutch (belgian) newsfeeds.
take a look at this side: http://feeds.nieuwsblad.be/nieuws/snelnieuws
they provide for each headline, a pircture and short description.
It would be nice if you could also incorparate this into the module.

Johan
