I disabled the wifi power saving. I will setup the script in crontab to check the connection as you suggested. Thank you. Best regards, Noro

Exactly, but it still won´t work…

Hey, up to now my MagicMirror was only in test mode and accessed via browser. Now I wanted to install it with a monitor on my mirror. If the RPi is not connected to HDMI, it works great. But as soon as I connect it and reboot it does not work. I can see the bootup of the RPi and a splash screen of MagicMirror saying “booting up”, but after that only a period of time a black cross and than the desktop. I also can not connect via browser, so MM is definetly not running. I will append the ~/MagicMirror/npm-debug.log pm2 is listing MagicMirror as running. When I disconnect the HDMI and reboot it works again from my browser. Can anyone please help? 0 info it worked if it ends with ok 1 verbose cli [ '/usr/bin/node', '/usr/bin/npm', 'start' ] 2 info using npm@3.10.10 3 info using node@v6.13.0 4 verbose run-script [ 'prestart', 'start', 'poststart' ] 5 info lifecycle magicmirror@2.2.2~prestart: magicmirror@2.2.2 6 silly lifecycle magicmirror@2.2.2~prestart: no script for prestart, continuing 7 info lifecycle magicmirror@2.2.2~start: magicmirror@2.2.2 8 verbose lifecycle magicmirror@2.2.2~start: unsafe-perm in lifecycle true 9 verbose lifecycle magicmirror@2.2.2~start: PATH: /usr/lib/node_modules/npm/bin/node-gyp-bin:/home/pi/Magic$ 10 verbose lifecycle magicmirror@2.2.2~start: CWD: /home/pi/MagicMirror 11 silly lifecycle magicmirror@2.2.2~start: Args: [ '-c', 'sh run-start.sh' ] 12 silly lifecycle magicmirror@2.2.2~start: Returned: code: 1 signal: null 13 info lifecycle magicmirror@2.2.2~start: Failed to exec start script 14 verbose stack Error: magicmirror@2.2.2 start: `sh run-start.sh` 14 verbose stack Exit status 1 14 verbose stack at EventEmitter.

I was trying to install opencv with brew from the terminal but when I try to run the mirror I get the following error message: “homebrew/science was deprecated. This tap is now empty as all its formulae were migrated.” Thanks in advance for your help @mykle1

@yawns Thanks…I tried changing the resolution but it didn’t take…tried it a second time and its ok now.

Thanks @mykle1! This is pure magic! hahah

@E3V3A the next release should be on 1st of april

@RoboDoc said in TypeError: Cannot read property ‘hash’ of null: at /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/default/updatenotification/node_helper.js:68:31 line 68 in the node_helper of the update notification seems to check all modules on GitHub for updates, if i understand that correctly… So there are two options: Your mirror lost it’s wifi/internet connection. Maybe u could check on your router if the device had logged off from the wifi. Or check the strength of the connection. Maybe take a look at the wifi_rebooter, as the wifi on the RPi 3 is not the best. So i installed an automatically wifi_rebooter here. U could try that as well: http://alexba.in/blog/2015/01/14/automatically-reconnecting-wifi-on-a-raspberrypi/ in my case my Pi pings my router address every 3 minutes and when it cannot reach it, it reboots it’s wifi itself. Some of the 3rd party modules has errors. But i don’t think so. To check it u could just run the default modules for a while

So you use the camera module i posted? unfortunately i don’t use this module, so i am maybe the wrong person to ask… But i took a look at the webcam.js of the module and in line 46/47 the width and hight is defined. Maybe u should play around with that… https://github.com/alexyak/camera/blob/master/webcam.js nano MagicMirror/modules/camera/webcam.js also check the camera.js at line 62/63… nano MagicMirror/modules/camera/camera.js I don’t know if it would be necessary to set the resolution of the cam within raspbian… ? To start the cam with a button u can even use the MMM-Buttons module. This should work, if i understand the camera-module correct ^^ { module: 'MMM-Buttons', config: { maxShortPressTime: 1000, buttons: [ { pin: 15, name: "camera", shortPress: { notification: "SHOW_CAMERA", } }, longPress: { notification: "HIDE_CAMERA", }, }, ] } },

Hi, everybody I have a little problem, I have put my mirror in French language but i can’t see the accents, I see “?” in diamond. Can you help me please (Sorry for my horrible English =D)

Now I control PLAY and PAUSE through voice commands in the youtube module, instead of with MMM-Remote-Control. I would like to send data like http://localhost:8080 /youtube?Id=XXXXXXX, also with voice, but I can not find the form. The idea is to have a list of videos to play, automated by voice. Any idea? It could become a very interesting module…

Thanks @ninjabreadman, that seems to do the trick for now :)

i would use pm2 for that. sudo nano /etc/crontab # /etc/crontab: system-wide crontab # Unlike any other crontab you don't have to run the `crontab' # command to install the new version when you edit this file # and files in /etc/cron.d. These files also have username fields, # that none of the other crontabs do. SHELL=/bin/sh PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin # m h dom mon dow user command 17 * * * * root cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly 25 6 * * * root test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily ) 47 6 * * 7 root test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.weekly ) 52 6 1 * * root test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.monthly ) 59 23 * * * pi pm2 restart mm # should work…

Thanks, I will heatsinks a try and see if they can keep it cool enough. Alexa-pi is part of the mirror, but just for asking questions, no further integration. Keeping the frame open would be nice, but then I need to have some safety around the screen electronics. Need to have a look. Thanks you.

I should know this … But you are right. Thank you

I am having following errors while installing MM Cloning MagicMirror Done! Installing dependencies ... npm WARN prefer global coffeescript@1.10.0 should be installed with -g npm WARN prefer global jsonlint@1.6.2 should be installed with -g > uws@0.14.5 install /home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/uws > node-gyp rebuild > build_log.txt 2>&1 || exit 0 Unable to install dependencies! pi@raspberrypi:~ $

Got it solved, but not sure what exactly fixed it. I changed my config lines: address: "0.0.0.0", ipWhitelist: [], And then rebooted. Didn’t fix it. Rebooted again later, and then it was fixed. Very odd - but fixed is fixed!

Hi folks. I have installed MMM-MyNotes, and it is reporting that it is authorised but when running, the module just constantly shows “loading”. Any ideas why?
