I posted this in another thread too. Hi, For beginners, the catchphrase is “JSON syntax”. There are many articles to be found, both short and lengthy. A small article would be: https://restfulapi.net/json-syntax/ The main things to look for in your config.js file are: does every [ have a matching ] are all arrays separated by a , (the last array does not need a ,) does every { have a matching } are all objects separated by a , (the last object does not need a ,) is every name value pair separated by a , The syntax checker will try to find out if this syntax is correct and tries to predict where the error could be. So, when it says it saw a [ and it cannot find a matching ] it tells you what was expected and what it saw. Try to format you config.js to make it more visible. For example this: [{},{}],[{},{[]}] is better written like this: [ {}, {} ], [ { }, { [ ] } ] Pairs of [ ]and { } are better visible like this. Good luck :-)

Hello everyone. First of all thank you all for the work done and those who take their time reading this thread. I installed the following module: MMM-DHT-Sensor But I can not make it work. I installed both dependencies. I typed “npm install rpi-dht-sensor” command in my MagicMirror folder and even in the module folder. But I still have no data going back. I have the module that appears in my MagicMirror but instead of the values ​​I just “…”. An idea? Thank you all.

Hi, @Maxxlin, I recommend you try this instructions: https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/9386/installing-on-a-pi-zero I’ve recently installed it and found 0 problems. It works fine!

Hi my Calendar tital text is to long how do i wrap the text using the configuration options im just not sure how to add then Thanks { module: "calendar", header: "US Holidays", position: "top_left", config: { calendars: [ { symbol: "calendar-check", url: "https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxbasic.ics" } ] } },

I’m aware there’s too many commas by ‘traditional thinking’ - but I kept getting config errors without it. This was the default config, modified for testing.

suffered the same problem and found this: https://wiki.debian.org/SSH#SSH_hangs it solved my extreme unstable SSH connection problem

Hello builders. I recently installed mycroft in the same rpi which i have installed magic mirror. Everything went ok. The problem is that mycroft doesn’t show/hide all modules. For example i have MMM-Horoscope and MMM-Coctails which both are included in the availiablemodules.js file. Is there something more that I have to do? Thank you in advance.

Oh my god. What a stupid error. I installed the module in den /MagicMirror folder. Again a Layer 8 problem. Excuse me for wasting your time. But I’m so thankful to you. :-)

Update. When the pi$ prompt is displayed I can enter startx and the desktop comes up then MM starts. Why am I having to enter startx? Never had to before.

Hi, Anybody know a way to put MMM-voice on hold? Reason is to stop listening on MIC when a command is passed to a different module which also uses mic (I’m activating AssistantMk2, but Voice is occupying the mic at all time). Hotword support this feature, but Snowboy doesn’t support newer versions of OS on other platforms than Stretch on Pi/ATB. Thanks, TheStigh

Calendar Monthly module is not updating when month changes eg. from 31th Jan to 1st Feb. I find this issue has been previously discussed at: https://github.com/KirAsh4/calendar_monthly/issues/2 However, it’s unclear for me if the problem has been fixed or not - when and how?

@sdetweil Yes one time start the python and it will run.

@rts58 That worked. Thank you very much.

You could us MMM-MyVideoPlayer… Just the touch or click of a button changes the video. https://github.com/justjim1220/MMM-MyVideoPlayer

@cotxwx When you start the MM and it hangs try to access the webpage through another computer/phone. Go to <:8080 (I believe it was). If you are able to see the MM then it correctly starts (this is my assumption). If it doesn’t work can you try to just run npm start without the DISPLAY=:0.

I had a blank screen for the first time when I got home today. System had been running for a couple of weeks without an issue. I’ve now added a cron job to restart every sunday…

@warmyster Can you expand or link the conversation with Sean… Have been strugling with this for hours now. Thanks

Re: MONITORON on does not work in schedule So for the last two days, this has been working correctly. I think it may be a combination of @dazza120 fix to my config, not messing with the pi for a full 2 days to let it fully run through it’s schedule, and removing openGL.
