    ok… i am dumb :(

    i realized that the video only was downloaded a few times, cause my Mirror restarts all the time. The watchdog module recognized a few Heartbeat timeouts and restarts every time.

    So maybe i need to do some troubleshooting first ^^

        Hi,

        I am not sure if I should open a new topic, but somehow it fits here as well.
        My MMM-Podcast does not show any video at all.
        I use the default feedURL like shown above.

        Is it correct that the modul does not show anything on startup or is there a picture of the linked video shown?
        I do not have MMM-Button installed, but it should work with “http://IP:8080/remote?action=NOTIFICATION& notification=BUTTON_PRESSED” as well.
        Sending the command my browser says “success” but nothing happens. It always shows nothing.

        Can anyone help?

        Thank you.

        Mr.Coffee

            No. Unfortunately not.
            I don´t know what the issue is. The area were the module should be, is just black.
            Nothing happens.

                Thats interessting. I just realized your screenshot above.
                In my case it does not show anything.
                Can you please post the part of your config?

                Where do I find the error.log?

                Thanks

                  did you guys install the omxplayer correctly?

                  check it like this:

                  cd MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Podcast

                  omxplayer -o hdmi video.mp4

                  this should play the video.

                  I am not using a header, so my module isn’t shown on the MM, too. I think that is correct.

                    Thanks for helping us.
                    I tried the code. The player doesn´t show a video but says “have a nice day” in the command line.
                    I reinstalled it with

                    • sudo apt-get purge omxplayer
                    • sudo apt-get install omxplayer

                    Unfortunately it does not help. It is still “have a nice day”.
                    Any further ideas?

                      I just tried another video just to be sure: omxplayer /opt/vc/src/hello_pi/hello_video/test.h264
                      This time it does show some text, but still no video.
                      The text is:
                      Video codec omx-h264 width 1920 height 1080 profile 77 fps 25.000000
                      Subtitle count: 0, state: off, index: 1, delay:0

                      However it does not quit. There is no “have a nice day” but it still shows nothing.
