No trigger for Media Works

[CanadianLocomotiveLogisti]

I have a sourse 'medial' which pulls in a rtsp://192.168.1.150:554 stream.

I cannot make the trigger activate if the stream stops, to restart it.

I can manually start the macro... but autoamtically the trigger will not work.

Any fix?

my actions, pause for 30 seconds (incase the camera has rebooted) and the reset the stream to rtsp://192.168.1.150:554, which works well but not automatically.

I ran into the same thing. When an RTSP feed dies, the media source often doesn't switch to "ended" or "error", it just sits on the last frame, so a Media state condition never fires. What worked better is a Video condition on that source set to "has not changed" for something like 20 to 30 seconds, then your actions: wait 30 seconds, reset the input to the RTSP address, restart the source. Also set the macro to run only once per trigger so it doesn't loop. If you get tired of keeping a PC running just for the camera, we built FalkoCam, which pushes the camera to YouTube with no computer and keeps the same live link after drops. It's mainly for Dahua cams, but there's a free compatibility check, and we can set you up with a free month if you want to try, DM me.
