did you guys install the omxplayer correctly?
check it like this:
cd MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Podcastomxplayer -o hdmi video.mp4this 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:0However it does not quit. There is no “have a nice day” but it still shows nothing.

So after a couple of days I gave it a new try.
You were close to the solution. I did not install the dependencies right.For all with the same issue, you have to read the instructions better than I did:
- Navigate into your MagicMirror’s modules folder and execute git clone https://github.com/ptrbld/MMM-Podcast.git. A new folder will appear navigate into it. --> which means navigate into MMM-Podcast.
- Execute npm install to install the node dependencies. --> in the folder MMM-Podcast, install the omx-manager and omxdirector (see dependencies).
3. Install omxplayer. --> However, I already had the newest version installed.
Now it works fine. And it is pretty awesome.
Thanks for helping me.
