@witschi87 it should indeed be correct as it is right now since you are overwriting a function adding self should break that especially since self is not even defined at that point.

If you meant setTimeout(function(){socketNotificationReceived(notification, payload)},2000); on the other hand, this should not work at all! What is this supposed to do?

[witschi87]

@paviro Yes, I mean setTimeout(function(){socketNotificationReceived(notification, payload)},2000);. This is an even call to wait the download is finished. The downloadVideo-Function has a callback to set the this.loaded = true and after that the socketNotificationReceived-Function runs the omx.play()-Command. But at this point nothings happens…

ok I see I will change that…
Well if you never run into the ‘setTimeout’ call it works as expected :angel:

But the video should be played. Can you tell me what podcast you are using and if the video is downloaded properly (can you play it from your directory)?

[witschi87]

I’m using the 100 seconds Tagesschau podcast. The video is downloaded properly and I can play it from directory. I have also checked, that the omx.play()-Command is reached with a console.log. But nothing happens - no error message and no video is playing :(
While we are at it: what is the best way to develop a module? Do I need to restart the application (pm2 restart/reload mm) every time I am changing a node_helper?

[PtrBld]

Yes. That is the way i am doing it

[PtrBld]

Have you tried playing the video using the omxplayer?

[witschi87]

via ssh-console? How can I do that?
