Hi @C-son thanks very much for your update! I’ve updated my installation of the module and given it another try, and it’s definitely better: my mirror now shows the picture from MMM-BackgroundSlideshow ok (instead of just the black background with no picture under my other modules that I was getting before when MMM-MagicMover was enabled) watching carefully I can see my displayed modules (e.g. default Clock, weather modules) getting shifted slightly in the mirror display every now and again but my module at position: bottom_centernow gets displayed shifted to the right of the mirror. I have MMM-WeatherOrNot displayed at this position, configured to show a 7-day forecast as a horizontal row of icons, and the last 3 or so icons (perhaps 40% of the whole row) is shifted off the right hand side of the screen (if that helps give you an idea of how much it’s been moved across). I do have a module configured to display above that (at position: lower_third) and below that too (at position: bottom_bar) and they both appear displayed on the mirror normally (i.e. centred like I’d expect) I still have MMM-MagicMover configured at position: top_bar, just in case that makes a difference. Let me know if there’s any more info I can help with anyway, happy to try it out.

MMM- REMOTE CONTROL ISSUE I’m having issue with getting a remote setup so I can control my smart web display and other modules. can anyway share there config .is

Have you tried temporarily hooking up the Pi to a computer monitor? Verify that the Pi is outputting a signal, then try a different HDMI input on your TV. I have also found that connecting everything and setting the input to the appropriate plug and then turning on the Pi is helpful. You’ll get to see the Pi boot sequence which eliminates any issue with the Magic Mirror interface/electron not displaying content.

@Bugsounet Thanks. That seems to have done the trick. I didn’t notice the square brackets when reading the instructions.

A couple basic questions: Were you ever able to connect to your Raspberry Pi through a VNC connection? Can you ping your Raspberry Pi successfully? Can you SSH into your Raspberry Pi?

@raymondjspigot Thanks! That fixed it!

@Bugsounet Thank you for the response. Unfortunately, I am still not getting any sound from the sample Alexa app and Youtube.

@Karl-Muffel ‘no helper found’ is just a notice that this module doesn’t use a helper file (node_helper.js), it is an optional module component

@RIKKO14 eaddrinuse means something is already using that port? did u reboot and then try pm2 start again pm2 status will show u what is defined and running

I would like and am trying to display the web video of a Hikvision IP Camera. Has anyone tried this on the mirror and been successful? The plugin for the Hikvision camera is flaky at the best of times, but wanted to see if anyone has tried and been successful?

figured it out with a little help. if anyone else is running into the same problem the answer can be found here: https://github.com/Bee-Mar/mmpm/issues/41

@WillBuden there is a bug. fixed in the develop branch how did you install? if npm install then do cd ~/MagicMirror git checkout develop git pull if you used the install script, then do cd ~/MagicMirror git fetch origin develop:develop git checkout develop then restart mm

Thnks I’ll look at it

@sdetweil Thanks! I must have lost that file somewhere. Ill get that added and see if I still have that problem.

it’s crazy, after several reboot it works …

hey, so I did what you said to do and got the error parsing app.json could you leave a direct link to the compressed file, it would help a lot Thanks!

@dyard please, just edit the css/custom.css, don’t change the module code unless u are fixing a bug or adding function (and then don’t tell anyone about it, release a new updated module) https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/6808/css-101-getting-started-with-css-and-understanding-how-css-works?_=1597692865011

@Genosphere the script adds the empty custom.css, and fixes misc problems on different platforms pm2 --help will show you all the commands, you can use the name of the pm2 setup, or the number pm2 restart MagicMirror or pm2 restart 0 is there anything else… ?? no. the objective is to get you up and running, ready for all the rest of the things to work … read this https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/4231/how-to-add-modules-for-absolute-beginners?_=1597692865004

Ok thanks all, will try :) Sorry for being clueless :man_facepalming_light_skin_tone:

@sdetweil yeah, ok cheers ill give it a try.
