Hi,

I try to put it up and running yesterday night, it stops working and got to manually reset it. I actually try a few RTSP program from others, it is the same. Even I change power supply too. Can you help to look into it?

Difficult to say, I have mine online for days now without the need to reset it.

One problem I found is that if both Webserver and RTSP server are enabled, the streaming is either very slow or stops sometimes.

In main.h check the following lines to make sure only one of the two is enabled:

// Select which of the servers are active
// Select only one or the streaming will be very slow!
// #define ENABLE_WEBSERVER
#define ENABLE_RTSPSERVER

Other than that, my module is really sensitive to power problems. I had to try several USB cables before I got it to run. Right now I am using a USB cable that is made for charging only, it does not have data lines and that works best for me.

Yes I only enable RTSP and I am using purely 5v 3000mA DC power adapter. Unfortunately, I tested this morning ok but at night I got to reset it again to make it work.

Your setup sounds good. I have no idea why it stops after a few hours.

Can you try on a different WiFi network? Just to eliminate the possibility of a router problem?

Please report problem at Micro-RTSP. I wrote just the app, not the streaming library.
