        Interesting. I changed nothing other than the name of the picture I wanted to test with. I’ll dig back into it, thank you for your responses.
        My apologies for delayed response, I haven’t had much time for personal projects lately.

          I had a similar issue. I added a comma to the end of the line “sounds:”

                      {
                              module: "MMM-EasyPix",
                              position: "middle_center",
                              config: {
                                      picName: "DSC01423.JPG",             // Enter the picture file name.
                                      maxWidth: "75%",                     // Size picture precisely. Retains aspect ratio.
                                      sounds: ["1.mp3", "me2.mp3"],         // mp3 sound file names in quotes seperated by commas for Hello-Lucy
                                      updateInterval: 30 * 60 * 1000,      // updates display
                                      animationSpeed: 3000,
                              }
                      },
          

          Hope this helps

          Would love to know how to have a slide show without having to create a list in the config.js file.

            Good catch! Thanks for bringing that to my attention, mate. :thumbsup: I’ve updated the readme example.

            Again, this module was really only meant to be an accessory to Hello-Lucy so there was no need for the slideshow. However, this module

            https://github.com/AdamMoses-GitHub/MMM-ImageSlideshow

            does an excellent job of run a slideshow of your pictures.

                There are no mp4 files in use by MMM-EasyPix. Are you talking about the animated face (face.gif)?

                  @Stoffbeuteluwe autoplay is a new restriction in the browsers… you have to click on something… dumb for a mirror with no mouse!!

                  fix

                  edit the smart-mirror/main.js
                  find the line

                  let mainWindow
                  

                  and change it so it looks like this

                  let mainWindow;
                  
                  function createWindow() {
                      app.commandLine.appendSwitch('autoplay-policy', 'no-user-gesture-required');  //< -------- added
                  

                  then save and restart MM
