Which module would be best to view my Lorex NVR system on my mirror? RTPStream or MagicEye? I’ve tried RTPStream with no luck.

@sdetweil thanks for the script I’ll save it for later use and it worked thanks!!

Good day all hope everyone and their families are keeping safe and SANE in these times. Since we all have so much down time I figured Id tackle my magic mirror project that I have slowly been putting together and I have it about 75% complete; I have hit a wall tho… I cannot seem to get my Lorex Cameras to display in any module on my MMM. My ultimate goal is to have all my modules viable at all times (PIR On/OFF Display) and then when I hit/press a hidden switch my camera hub would pop up so that I can view my security cameras and then timeout and disappear again.

If anyone could lend any assistance with a module that I should be using for my cameras or any sort of workaround please let me know and your help is greatly appreciated.

@KumarTRD hardware wise, sure, just need to use another pin for the signal of the second pi.

software wise, I don’t know if u can run the python detector scripts twice…
it currently only watches for changes on 1 pin

@Ultimatum22 hey there went to do the most current update and ran into the same issue with the vendor/package-lock.json package so I ran the removal script as stated below and it worked and now my pi is updated… I remember you brought up that I should have that package in a gitignore file how do I move it over?

@kumartrd Have a look at MMM-PIR-Sensor. You can customize it to suit your requirements. It normally triggers turning the monitor on, and sets a timer to turn the monitor off. Instead, you want to use button actions/notifications to do both, and not use a timer. Instead you can reuse the wake code for sleep. You’ll also need to add a logic test that a button press while asleep wakes, while a button press while awake sleeps. Have a look at this thread for a very thorough explanation.

@ninjabreadman you my good man are a life saver thank you so much it worked.
