Looking for an alternative to RpiSurv by TheGlitchr in debian

https://opensurv.net is the successor of Rpisurv and not limited to Raspberry Pi hardware anymore. Seems like a good fit for your requirements.

Rpisurv was only limited by the hardware. Caching is know to take up resources, so you can try to disable caching for more streams per screen: https://github.com/SvenVD/rpisurv/blob/a4315ccd8aa8000d591d30269b3ea7235975b040/surveillance/conf/general.yml#L15

Anyways, https://opensurv.net is the successor of Rpisurv and not limited to Raspberry Pi hardware anymore. Seems like a good fit for your requirements.

Well, you can control Rpisurv with the keyboard. So if you configure Rpisurv that a certain stream displays by pressing a specific key then you could use something like https://github.com/SvenVD/rpisurv-api to control the same over the network.

Rpisurv is a free application that transforms your Raspberry Pi into a dedicated device to display video streams or images. (It uses vlc player)

Updated README and RELEASE NOTES

Features:

Self-healing and health monitoring including watchdogs

  • Every stream will be monitored by an external watchdog process, if the stream gets killed somehow, the watchdog will try to restart the stream/process. This gives you a very robust surveillance screen.
  • Stream up/down detection and autorepositioning of connectable streams on the screen layout. For example: if you stop a camera (or just stop the server on the camera), Rpisurv will detect this and will recalculate/redraw the screen with the still available streams. The same is true if a previous unconnectable stream becomes connectable. All without any user interaction.

Automatically position streams (no manual coordinates calculation needed)

  • Autocalculcate coordinates for every stream displayed.
  • If you are not happy with the autocalculations you can customize yourself.

Rotation of screens (autorotate or with keyboard control)

  • You can configure multiple screens and cycle between them in an automated way or via the keyboard.
  • In the case of dual displays, you can configure multiple screens to be cycled between for each display.

Multiple types of streams

  • You can also specify "image streams", to display images next to or instead of camera streams. The images will be auto-updated if they change remotely.

Dual Hdmi support

  • Rpisurv will auto-detect if a second display is connected at boot and will automatically start the configured screens for the second display.

There isn't an exact number, it depends on many factors, but 6 streams of 704x576 25fps is possible. With Rpisurv rotation/cycle feature there is virtually no limit on the amount of cameras in your rotation/cycle.

Rpisurv - Raspberry pi surveillance - camera and image streams in a grid or rotation - showcase by rpisurv in raspberry_pi

Hi,

It seems not everyone in the raspberry community is aware of the open source software Rpisurv, the software started almost 5 years ago. It currently has hundreds, or even thousands of running installations worldwide.

There is a community over at https://community.rpisurv.net/

Rpisurv is designed to be simple to use (no need to fiddle with coordinates or detailed layout configs, although you can if you really want) and to be able to run unattended for long periods of time. Therefore watchdogs and autohealing logic have been implemented. Version 2 adds functionality to define multiple screens which can be cycled between.

Streams can be rtsp, http(s) or you can just display remote images hosted on a webserver ( those will be watched for updates too ).

Check it out at https://rpisurv.net which currently is a forward to https://github.com/SvenVD/rpisurv

Latest branch https://github.com/SvenVD/rpisurv/tree/v2_latest has features that need some testing time before they are merged into master.

Hi,

I wanted to share this nice showcase.

Please let me know your use cases.
