looks like the provider changed their API. so the module will have to be changed

Hi @sdetweil
I understand. Do you know if the developer still maintains the module?

Thanks

[sdetweil]

@Egnos no idea, go look at the GitHub site, post an issue.

I tried to do the recommended fix but nothing has changed.
https://github.com/jclarke0000/MMM-MyScoreboard/pull/61

I opened a problem on GitHub as you advised me, I await an answer.

If someone had solved … give a whistle ;-)

@Egnos but that PR fixes the wrong provider… the espn provider is broken

the error u posted

data for provider ESPN: Error: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND site.api.espn.com

that module is 5 years old… these providers change things every year…

@sdetweil ESPN sneezes and the data format changes. Not a reliable source.

Hi @BKeyport do you know a valid alternative?
Thanks

@Egnos sadly, no, i don’t. Gave up on scores on my mirror long ago.

Sorry folks that I haven’t been around to fix this. There URL for the ticker changed for the SportsNet provider. I’ll be publishing a fix in the cominn g days, but if you want to address it now, make a change in the file providers/SNET.js.

Change line #122 from

    var url = "https://d290qmen6zswb.cloudfront.net/ticker?day=" + this.gameDate.format("YYYY-MM-DD");

to

   var url = "https://mobile-statsv2.sportsnet.ca/ticker?day=" + this.gameDate.format("YYYY-MM-DD");

This should get you back up and running until I publish the official fix.

Thanks @j-e-f-f we look forward to the official release!:thumbs_up:

From my standpoint, the only thing that stopped working for me were any of the feeds that used the Sportsnet provider. But I am seeing some anecdotal reports of the ESPN provider also not working? Could anyone provide some examples of this? ESPN is working for me as-is.

[j.e.f.f]

New update released. This is a big one. Addresses the following:

• Correction of SNET provider ticker URL
• Change of ESPN provider URL to HTTPS
• Replacement of deprecated library Request with Axios
• Addition of WNBA and NCAAW womens’ basketball leagues
• Team logo updates for North American leagues
• Correction of NCAA team shortcode for Wisconsin Badgers from WIS to WISC

As this has a replacement of a module, you’ll need to run npm install after doing a git pull in the MMM-MyScoreBoard directory

A note on ESPN’s feed. I have seen a number of posts reporting that the it sporadically stops working. As of right now the ESPN feed works properly for me, but I did notice over the course of the last couple of day’s testing that sometimes the request out to ESPN is not answered in a timely manner. Eventually ESPN will update, but sometimes it is slow. I have made a change so that the request is made over HTTPS instead of HTTP, and my testing since then has shown the feed to be more reliable. Of course, this could just be a complete coincidence, and it’s equally as likely that we’ll continue to see issues with ESPN-sourced scoreboard data.

Once again, sorry for the LOOOOOOONG delay in addressing this. My mirror has sat unattended to for quite some time, and I only recently got around to rebuilding things. A number of my modules had stopped working, not just this one. Hopefully, this gets everyone back up and running.

@j-e-f-f This can definitely be a future improvement but is there a way to get support for some of the relatively recent expansion MLS teams or if I use their codes, would it just work without additional code (especially with the ESPN update)?

The recent update already includes all current 28 MLS teams. However any future additional teams will work provided you know the shortcode. MLS is provided by SportsNet, not ESPN, and if you can figure out the shortcode SportsNet uses for any new team, you can follow that team specifically. Otherwise, if you just follow the league, the new team will appear as it comes through the feed without any intervention on your part. I also changed MLS to pull the team logo images from the data feed, so there won’t be any missing logos either.

Hi Jeff,

My MM Scoreboard shows the times of the coming matches wrong,

They are displayed as to air 1 hour early,
Is this because your API calls from ESPN in America when i am in the UK?

could you help with getting this changed to local time,

The clock on my MM is correct and i would assume the date and times are pulled from the same part

[BKeyport]

Noctis: that looks like a daylight savings issue. We’re still in DST until 2nd Sun of November, I don’t know your status.

[Noctis25]

@BKeyport
Hi BKeyport,

That makes sense,
We are in daylight savings for another 20 days,

i will see if that changes after the change,

thank you

[BKeyport]

@Noctis25 One thing you could double check as you’re in England. Are you using the right clock locale (Europe/London versus GMT)? Is your clock observing DST correctly?

Daylight savings is a horrible thing, as is timezones.

@j-e-f-f Thanks for fixing the module! ;-)
I have tried your module and I believe that all the most popular football rankings do not work.

I tried with:

• ITA_SERIES_A

• ESP_LALIGA

• GER_BUNDESLIGA

but nothing is shown.

For example NHL League works …

Could you help me?

Thanks.

Working great with today’s games for NHL, Eng Premier & League 1; however when I set a value for rolloverHours this switches to only showing the previous days scores and doesn’t display anything for today? Assuming my formatting is correct? Just:
rolloverHours: 12,

Updated my mirror and now the module is stuck with the message “Loading…”

I’ve updated the module since a new version came out but I still have the same problem.

I’ve also tried deleting the MMM-MyScoreboard directory and did a new pull and install but still no success.

In the console I get a MESA-LOADER: failed to retrieve device information. My GoogleFu failed to produce success.
