Node-Red RTSP live camera stream to dashboard with push button Start/Stop streams and MQTT controls

Good point and even better idea, because that was something I definitely struggled with in the beginning.

The unfamiliar nodes that I used in this project are credited to the development by @kevinGodell ...@BartButenaers also has an rtsp streaming node that I'm still testing out, but it's a great choice as well!

If you take a look at this reply from @kevinGodell on my initial post for search for help with this project, Kevin explains the download and install procedures of his nodes. I can not take any credit for this process, as you will see if you follow this link, I had install issues, and did not follow Kevin's instructions to the T.

Key take a ways:
Install GIT
Install Ffmpeg and have it running when trying to use the nodes
