    Hi @Rawdha-R I think there is just an interface error you are doing incorrectly with your tailscale setup.

    I am able to connect over both 4g and 5g via tailscale to both PX4 from QGC and to VLC from voxl-streamer.

    Screenshot 2024-10-07 at 3.37.19 PM.jpg Screenshot 2024-10-07 at 3.37.26 PM.jpg

    What services do you have running on your voxl2? Do you have voxl-camera-server and voxl-streamer both configured? Are both the voxl2 and the parent computer you are trying to view the stream with both on the same VPN on tailscale? Can you ping the voxl2 from the parent computer over tailscale and vice versa?

    The setup is working well. I successfully pinged both the VOXL drone and the parent computer:

    Additionally, I managed to stream using MVP, and it functioned:

    As for the wwan0, I have confirmed that an IP address is displayed:
    Screen Shot 2024-10-08 at 11.16.00 AM.png

    Both voxl-streamer and voxl-camera-server is enabled and running:
    Screen Shot 2024-10-08 at 11.27.24 AM.png

    However, I'm still encountering some difficulties with streaming on VLC and QGroundControl (QGC). I've installed the necessary GStreamer dependencies, but I continue to receive errors when attempting to stream on both platforms.

    I have following the instructions in this link to install gstreamer properly:
    https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/documentation/installing/on-linux.html?gi-language=c

    P.S: I'm using Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS

      @Rawdha-R Can you try adding tailscale0 to the top of the list in /etc/modalai/network_interface_preferences.txt and power cycling your voxl?

        @tom Like this:

        # List the order of priority of network interfaces here.
        # Top is most important
        # Bottom is least important
        
        tailscale0
        tun0
        eth0
        usb0
        wlan0
        wwan0

          @Rawdha-R please go into voxl-streamer config /etc/modalai/voxl-streamer.conf and change the auto ip to false and then change the url to match the IP address of that in your tailscale IP. I believe what is happening right now is voxl streamer might be prioritizing a different IP as Tom mentioned above.

            I have configured Tailscale as a priority network:
            Screen Shot 2024-10-14 at 10.45.19 AM.png

            While setting up the voxl-streamer (located at /etc/modalai/voxl-streamer.conf) with the new URL, I noticed that the parameters auto_ip and url were missing:

            Screen Shot 2024-10-14 at 10.47.18 AM.png

            I have added both parameters, setting auto_ip to false and updating the url with the Tailscale IP address and I checked the voxl-streamer and found that the stream value is still showing as 127.0.0.1:

            After these adjustments and power cycling the device, Additionally, I attempted to check the connection in QGroundControl and VLC, but I'm encountering some errors:

              @Rawdha-R those parameters are in voxl-mavcam-manager.conf not voxl-streamer. Apologies for mispeaking. Please remove those from voxl-streamer as it is most likley causing it to crash and then restart voxl-streamer and voxl-mavcam-manager.

                No worries, I reverted the voxl-streamer configuration to its original settings, restarted it, then updated and restarted voxl-mavcam-manager.conf.

                Screen Shot 2024-10-15 at 11.11.47 AM.png

                Afterwards, I attempted to set the RTSP stream to the specific IP address:
                Screen Shot 2024-10-15 at 10.54.32 AM.png

                When I checked voxl-streamer, the output showed the following:

                Screen Shot 2024-10-15 at 11.16.29 AM.png

                This is the errors that I got from Qground:

                  @Rawdha-R Are you able to pull up the stream in something like VLC? Trying to determine if it is indeed a QGC issue

                        I think I need a wifi dongle for it and I haven’t tried it with wifi.

                          I am also having issues now seeing my stream in VLC. It works as expected in QGC but I get similar errors to @Rawdha-R.

                          I had this working before in August, in fact I reverted from 13.3. to 1.3.0 just to see if that was an issue, but it persists. I will include some screenshots of my process below Screenshot from 2024-10-24 10-56-12.png

                          You can see in the next screenshot below that the video is being received by QGC

                          @tom wwan0 is in my network interface file, the default URI is set to that of the cellular modem, but of course auto_ip is set to true as well. Voxl-my-ip returns that of the cellular modem. I am a little confused though about how the config of mavcam-manager determines the behavior of voxl-streamer. In the diagram on the docs they seem decoupled.

                          I have included the verbose vlc log at the end of this file as well.

                            SO, I used ffplay and was able to see the stream successfully. A quick google about vlc/rtsp brought up many issues in the community after some recent updates. I am not sure how I was able to do this before and cannot now, but I did find a fix for windows

                            https://www.reddit.com/r/reolink/comments/yzhlxp/found_a_solution_for_rtsp_blackno_video_in_vlc/#:~:text=In VLC%2C under the Tools,video stream in VLC player.

                            In case that link is ever deleted, I will paste the instructions here
                            "In VLC, under the Tools menu, go to Preferences (or Ctrl+p), open the Input/Codecs tab, and at the bottom in the Network area, the selection for "live555 stream transport" should be moved from "HTTP (default)" to "RTP over RTSP (TCP)". This worked, I can now view the video stream in VLC player."

                            This resolves the RTSP stream for windows. Those config options are not available in the linux version of VLC but I did see some config options you can build VLC with. I did not venture too far down that path

                              @Rawdha-R Do you have this same issue if you try to stream over just wifi with no vpn?

                              The issue still persists for me. Do you think my setup could be causing the problem? I have an M1 Mac processor, and I'm using a virtual machine with UTM(Visualizer). Could that be causing any limitations? Should I try a different setup, and do you have any recommendations?

                                P.S. I am currently working with the Drone Sentinel VOXL 2 and the drone is connected via LTE but without Wi-Fi, because there is no wifi dongle.
