@bachoo786 hi mate I’ve got a cronjob running at 0400 and 1600 to stop it locking up I’ve just noticed the new one2.7.1 starting to eat the memory as I’ve disabled the cronjob to check out the latest down to 9% after 10hours. So it needs the restarts. Terminal Type. Crontab -e Put times below the line below m h dom mon dow command 0 4 * * * pm2 reload mm 0 16 * * * pm2 reload mm Link here https://thepihut.com/blogs/raspberry-pi-tutorials/34930820-running-things-regularly-cron

@fredo55 also this post by jstewart-amd is very helpful

@sdetweil said in Blank screen after updating tonight...: git stash Thanks for your quick reply and your tipp that worked for me. After git stash I updated MM to 2.7.1 and then I cd 'ed into every installed module and did npm install. Excuse my bad English and sorry to bug you and thanks again fpr your time! Noob from Germany

Hey guys I’ve build a Magic Mirror according to a youtubetutorial and according to the explanation provided by glancr. So I’ve installed “mirrOS”, the official Operating System of glancr on an SD card and put the card into a raspberry pi 3. The mirror is shown correctly but now I want to add a motion detector. I allready connected the PIR Sensor to the Pi but now I have problems to add python scripts to the pi. The python scripts shall control the motion detector. Basically it’s not that hard there are a lot of python scripts online but I don’t know how to add them without Raspbian on the Pi (so on the SD card). Is there a way to add python scripts to my pi so that the motion detector can be controlled while having mirrOS installed as Operating System? The other way would be to put raspbian on the pi. So I could add my scripts but when I’m right I can’t use glancrs software mirrOS at the same time… Thanks Janosch

@Sean Thanks Sean no only one folder, so think we are sorted thank you.

I ordered a new LCD cable. I deattached the old cable from the controller board and put on the new one. With the new cable the display was just white. I connected the old cable and I’m quite sure that the display went yellow again. Today I tried connecting the old and the new cable again and with both cables the display is just and only white. Can anybody help me? And is there a way to say for sure wether the failure is on the controller board or at the display? Thanks in advance Janosch

@dazza120 could u mark your issues solved… thx

@siddhartha could u mark your issues solved… thx

@sdetweil @sonicgoose Ok thank you, I will do it

@rabbit83ka don’t see the log info…

@coloradokb Yes with the new API key you get current weather data and also forecast. However, most variables have changed their name and you have to adjust the code of “MMM-WunderGround.js” and “node_helper.js”. Examples: apiBase old: “http://api.wunderground.com/api/” apiBase new: “https://api.weather.com/” forecast old: “http://api.wunderground.com/api/yourApiKey/conditions/hourly/forecast10day/astronomy/alerts/lang:DL/q/pws:ISAFENWI13.json” forecast new: "https://api.weather.com/v3/wx/forecast/daily/5day?postalKey=81657:US&units=e&language=en-US&format=json&apiKey=yourApiKey " Variables: old: wind_mph new: windspeed old: relative_humidity new: relativeHumidity The effort to rewrite the existing code is very large, unfortunately I’m not a programmer :( greetings from Switzerland Peter (translated with Google)

@Mykle1 And I do, I am slowly getting the various bits in place ie Google photos, Weather Etc Once I have it all, as I want it, I will look at all the options for the various api’s

@dxfan227 you’ve got it! You can use almost any word for the titleClass providing you use the same value in the custom.css file. e.g. titleClass: "word" and div.module.calendar td.word - it is possible to include uppercase and lowercase letters (a-z or A-Z) in the word as well as numbers (0-9) or even hyphens (-) and underscores (_), but avoid punctuation and other such characters. There are many recommendations for css class naming conventions, but that’s for another day. I’d say just be clear and descriptive. The color is defines by the hex value (e.g. #0e66b3) . Here is an overview if you’re not already familiar - https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_colors.asp It’s worth noting the css is defined in the custom.css file. You may find some suggest changing the files within the module directory. Avoid this where ever possible as such changes will make updating modules more difficult. Remember this customisation is only required because it can’t currently be achieved using the calendar modules configuration options. It’s possible (but less likely) that future changes to the module may break these customisations so watch out if upgrading the mirror. As you learn you may wish to push changes to the modules code so they become supported configuration options for others to use. Take it slowly, and enjoy the mirror.

Re: mmm-google-route help? Okay I have a new issue I need some help with. I’ll post it here to not clutter up the main page hopefully someone sees it. I have two of these modules one next to each other. One for me and one for wife. For some reason it wants to take my wife rout via toll road…this is OK however it offers two options one with the toll road…and then another via a side street then the toll road where what I would like is one via the toll road and the other via a different free way. I am okay not seeing any toll road options is that’s the easy way to get rid of it but when I added the avoidTolls:‘true’ To the module it now doesn’t load her side at all! ( just a white map)

So I answered my own question. It seems I was missing a comma from the end of my module. Listing my orgin and destination in plain text did did work so I am leaving this here for future people to find if that’s ok?

ok guys, some news my rpi works fine, modules seems OK i just buy wood for the frame, i need to cut, and glue that before painting the glass is ready i will try to put my picam behind the glass and i will try to have facial recognition just for fun i choose to put off my mirror every night with crontab fonction ( poweroff) and i decided to install a switch on RUN contact to put my mirror on the old TV is now ready too, plastik are away, i still dont know if i keep speakers or not, here is a view of it : http://zupimages.net/viewer.php?id=19/13/wivu.jpg

I had to rebuild my entire MM that the SD was broken. Now there is the following problem: Whenever the picture in the module MMM-GooglePhotos changes, the whole screen is black for a short time and then rebuilt. This was not the case with my first installation. There the picture changed without the screen renewing itself. How can I fix it?

@rcsmith2011 - It looks like your installation got corrupted somehow. I would back up my config.js file and then wipe the MagicMirror folder. Clone from the git repository, run the npm install command from the MagicMirror folder, restore your config.js file and then reinstall your modules.

@MrDondoT Re: [after reboot](not start with pm2 but ok with npm start) I have make a new clean install, and after 1 reboot : Same situation… i have juste install raspbian and empty of modules MM session…
