@Snoevit I did try it, but I probly made something wrong cause now it’s working. Thanks alot! :)

I did it for you. For future reference, you will have to set the topic as a question first, then you can change it later to solved. On the bottom right of the posts, there are three dots in a vertical line. Click on that to change the topic to a question (which will mark it 'Unsolved'), then when you’re ready to change it, click on the three dots again and you’ll have an option to set it to 'Solved'.

FIXED
the issue was in the node packet. By downloading out of the installer i solved the issue

With mine, as the temperature started to get higher and higher, the HDMI started dropping out. It would cause the monitor to blank out momentarily. It would stop late in the evening and be fine, but then during the day I would start seeing it again. Boosting the HDMI signal on the rpi didn’t help (in fact it made the temperature go up a bit higher even), but whenever I just blew across the rpi’s CPU, it would stop. That’s how I realized it was just getting too hot, even at the default speed. Now that I put it in a case with a fan, I haven’t had any issues.

Likely a bug recently discovered. Follow the instructions in the first post here to try the 'develop' branch:

Try the 'pm2 logs' and see if that sheds any light.

I’m joining the club in having the same issue with weather not updating. In my mirror it’s only the weather forecast that is updating. The current temperature is stale and have been so since I last restarted the mirror app.

I don’t have a PIR sensor to fiddle with … however, why are you setting pin 3 HIGH, and as an OUTPUT? If it’s to power the PIR sensor board, don’t, use either pin 1 or 17, those have a constant 3v3 on them (or if you know your sensor can tolerate 5V, use pins 2 or 4). If it’s to read from the PIR sensor, it needs to be set as an INPUT pin so it can detect when the sensor triggers it.

@KirAsh4 I’ve gotten it running in kiosk mode, but the calendar might not work on it. If it doesn’t I’ll just get rid of it.

I solved the problem on my own. I needed a Browser API

Hi guys,

I solved the problem. I had the wrong API Key. Somethings are easy afterwards…

Hello guys,
thank you for your help. I thought I have always to run npm install.

Now I´m a little bit smarter. Only run npm install when the author it´s write.

@amanzimdwini Thank you ! I will try ASAP !

@KirAsh4 Yes, you have right ! I just tried to install in ‘root’, thinking it could possibly solve the problem ;)

Since we get a lot of recurring questions on this forum, and on GitHub, it might be a good idea to create a FAQ in the wiki on GitHub. This FAQ should answer questions like: “Which PIs are supported”, “How to update”, “How to install modules”, etc …

Of course, this is a lot of work, so it would be awesome if someone could make a start … :)

Suggestions for good FAQ questions are also welcome!

Sleep? Is there a definition for that? :)

To note: the npm process starts up Electron in kiosk mode on the rpi. Electron is simply a browser, which then loads the localhost address to MM². So if you know your rpi’s address on your network, you can load it up anywhere through a browser.

In case you haven’t seen it, I posted how my (development) setup is, and it hints at doing just that with a remote browser:
https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/265/my-setup-or-how-crazy-i-am

Right. If you had followed the guide, you would’ve noticed that nowhere does it talk about using a client to connect and perform the various commands. You need to access it with a keyboard attached anyway to do the initial configuration before you can connect remotely, so rather than introduce another variable (having someone install something else), I opted not to do that.

That said, I’ll make a note in the guide. When connecting remotely, you must run the command as:

@mbalfour said in iCal parsing bug?:

The main difference is that I want the ical events to show up on the monthly calendar view, and it looks like you’re displaying an “empty” calendar, right?

Correct. That was the request made, a plain and simple calendar without any bells and whistles.

My new first priority is to finish off a module that lets us text message the display to display a notification to the family (“Went out to buy groceries be back in an hour”). :) The base concept is that it shows the summary of the latest gmail message an account receives, since you can text gmail accounts. Guess it’s possible other people might find other reasons to want that too…

Make sure you make it that only allowed numbers can text that e-mail, otherwise you may end up with spam messages.

I updated this module page with a step-by-step’ish guide on how to install and configure the module. Let me know if you run into any issues.

Since the module pulls lat/long data in JSON format from a file, you could just manually edit that file to update your location. This is in case you don’t want to use the GPS tracker on your phone.
What this means is that if you want to tweak the code, you could just have a file on your raspberry pi, or somewhere else on your home network that the lat/long is pulled from instead of setting up a website.

Hi everyone,

I have recently build a MM and I’m very happy with it, thank you all.
Everything works fine except that I have an issue with my first one RSS feed. it doesn’t want to load. I know it doesn’t load because it’s not a XML file but how can I solve this problem ?
