@Mykle1 Two excellent modules.
Your work is greatly appreciated.
And I wholeheartedly agree

When my MagicMirror starts, the ISS module appears, but I have to click a play button on it, to start the app. Is this as should be, or is there a way to get the live stream, when the mirror starts without any interaction.
Great module though

It absolutely should start without clicking a play button. When did you clone the repo? My initial upload to the repo required you to click a play button but a later upload/update included the fix for that.

Have you modified anything?

Line 38 of the MMM-ISS-Live.js file should look like this:

iframe.src="https://www.ustream.tv/embed/9408562?html5ui?autoplay=1";

If it does not you should do a git pull in the MMM-ISS-Live directory

[TamP]

@Mykle1 line 38 is correct but I did a git pull anyway but to no avail

starting with one of the newer electron builds, (and chrome, and mozilla) they have implemented a new ’ no autoplay’ policy.
they require a user to click on the web page somewhere to enable autoplay…

there is a workaround

edit mm/js/electron.js
and change the code like this

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

then restart MM… autoplay will work now

[TamP]

Thanks for that, It does as you say and starts without the playbutton

I did not know this. Thank you, Sam. :thumbsup:

@Mykle1
hi Mykle1
Thanks for this great module
I am receiving the following message:

Do you have an idea?
Thanks a lot
Best Regards

Hi @Vauxdvihl,
I had the same problem with another module. You can find what worked for me here: https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/11185/electron-browser-outdated
Good luck!

@rudibarani i submitted a change request to upgrade to 6.0.12 on the next update

Hi @Mykle1,
After lunartic I also installed these two modules: MMM-ISS Live and MMM-Earth Live. I’m your fan …:grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

I have the problem mentioned by @Vauxdvihl and @rudibarani, but for the ISS Live module I was able to close the message with the mouse, for the Earth Live module it is not possible … the pointer has no effect!
Could you help me?

Thanks for your interesting modules.

@Mykle1 PS: do you like my “Astronomy” page? :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat:

I do. I like all things related to the cosmos. :thumbsup:

I just loaded up both modules and was able to close both warning messages. The modules are both working as expected, as you can see from the screenshot. Can you please try again?

Do I have to enable the mouse pointer or do I have to be on t the module?

I used the mouse to click the close box on the message windows

[Egnos]

@Mykle1
The problem is in the location of the form.
If the module is positioned in the “upper_third” region it is not possible to interact with the mouse.
To close the message I had to:

• temporarily change the position to the MM-Earth Live module,

• close the message,

• and finally reposition it in its original position.

Now it’s okay.

Could you also check if it is not possible to interact with the module in the “upper_third” region?

Thanks.

I moved mine to the upper third position (both modules) and they both respond to mouse clicks

Hi all I have just installed this module on my MM and when I run it I have the following message on the screen “Your browser is out of date” how do i update this?

Cheers

Pete.

[sdetweil]

@Peter-Leemon what type hardware are u running on? pi 0?

on one system here *pi 0" I got ‘could not update chrome’ but there was a button

normally one would apply updates

open a terminal or ssh window , do

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

[Mykle1]

@Peter-Leemon

In the meantime, if you have the ability to click the close box that is also present, you can close the message and the module will work as expected until you restart MM again. That message does not always reappear after restart but it can.
