    Hello all,
    I have the problem, when I insert the MMM Wallpaper module from kolbyjack I have only a black screen with a mouse courser. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong.

            {
                   module: "MMM-Wallpaper",
                   position: "fullscreen_below",
                   config: {
                            // See "Configuration options" for more information.
                           source: "bing",
                           slideInterval: 5 * 60 * 1000, // Change slides every minute
                    }
            },

        I do not get it. I checked the config.js with npm run config:check. No syntax error. Deleted the module and tried MMM-nasaastropic instead. The same result. A black screen, I see only the courser. Config.js checked, no synatx error

            This is my MMM-Wallpaper and use Reddit instead of bing.

            Just replace source: “/r/MoviePosterPorn”, TO source: “bing”,

            {
            module: “MMM-Wallpaper”,
            position: “fullscreen_below”,
            classes: ‘scheduler’,
            config: {
            module_schedule: {from: ‘0 6 * * *’, to: ‘0 23 * * *’ },
            source: “/r/MoviePosterPorn”,
            maximumEntries:100,
            slideInterval: 30 * 1000,
            updateInterval: “90000”,
            filter: “grayscale(0.5) brightness(0.5)”,
            shuffle: true,
            size: “contain”, // cover,contain,auto
            }
            },

              You can delete these rows, they are used for MMM-Scheduler:

              classes: ‘scheduler’,
              and
              module_schedule: {from: ‘06 ***’, to: ‘0 23 ***’},

                @sdetweil I have now tried your script, but the screen is still black.
                Can you maybe do something with that?
