A few things to try:

• Do you need a username/password? If so, add it to the url:

rtsp://<user>:<pass>@192.168.0.100:554/onvif1

• From a command line, please try:

ffmpeg -rtsp_transport tcp -r 30 -i rtsp://192.168.0.100:554/onvif1 -f mpegts -codec:v mpeg1video -bf 0 -

See if there are any errors. You can also add hideFfmpegOutput: false to the stream1 section in the module config and check MM logs instead.

• If not working, try -rtsp_transport udp in the line above. (if that works, change tcp to udp in Line 14 of modules/MMM-RTSPStream/node_modules/node-rtsp-stream-es6/src/mpeg1muxer.js)

• You can also try the following command line to make sure ffmpeg can see the stream. This will save a snapshot.png file.

ffmpeg -i rtsp://192.168.0.100:554/onvif1 -ss 00:00:01.500 -f image2 -vframes 1 snapshot.png

tcp--> udp was the trick ;-) thanks a lot !!

@glelan - Great! I'm glad it was an easy fix. Just to let you know, I've updated the module to add a protocol: "tcp" or protocol: "udp" option in the stream config. If you want to update and try it:

cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-RTSPStream
git pull
npm run-script update

and then add the option into your stream section in the config file.
