So far I've been able to use VLC on my Windows laptop to decode and stream an RTSP stream directly from my HikVision cameras. The command to run VLC to do this is vlc.exe -R rtsp://admin:password@10.4.5.24:554/Streaming/Channels/101/ --sout "#transcode{vcodec=mjpg,vb=2500,scale=1.0,fps=10,acodec=no…

I'm now playing a bit with your ffmpeg exec flow with multiple streams. Main problem is my Lorex DVR sub-streams are CIF (352x240) only a bit bigger than your Big Buck Bunny public rtsp stream. the HD streams "choke" the Image Output node resulting in displaying mostly garbage. I took a cell phon…

This reminded me I never did post a short video clip of the 8 Lorex DVR CIF rtsp streams playing along with the "public" BigBuckBunny rtsp stream. 9 node-red rtsp streams Sorry its night,t but you can see from the passing headlights that it plays well. I think my CIF rtsp streams from the Lorex DV…

Morning @wb666greene , thanks for the nice example! [image] wb666greene: the HD streams "choke" the Image Output node resulting in displaying mostly garbage. I was still thinking you had choking images in the output node, which seemed natural to me since all data has to travel through that s…

Very nice & smooth looking! Just thought, wouldn't it be great to have a dashboard node that could do the same as the "Image output" node does? But as a dashboard component. Only missing thing to make it really simple to create a nice dashboard with multiple video streams

[image] BartButenaers: Did you do anything special to solve it? No I just cloned your BigBuckBunny flow and changed the URL to my Lorex DVR sub-streams. The main "trick" is to have enough CPU as each exec/spawn creates a new process (aka heavyweight thread). What "fixes" the ImageOutput is …

Following Link has lot of information about different video streaming related topics including webrtc: https://www.linux-projects.org/demos/ https://www.linux-projects.org/uv4l/tutorials/ May be useful tosomeone.

I’m certainly not averse to the idea of a core dashboard node to support this. Ideally it could be a “media” widget and support both stills or video.

[image] BartButenaers: And second question: can I conclude from your test that rtsp via ffmpeg in Node-RED is 'usable' ?? Absolutely, the main potential issue I see is that generally the AI (or other downstream processing) can't keep up with the full rtsp frame rate unless only a single strea…

Hey Walter (@krambriw), I'm developing something at the moment. But have some layout issues that I need to figure out...
