MM keeps freezing
-
@Fozi Oooh, good call. Strong power is good power. Part of the reason I upgraded to Pi4’s for most everything, honestly. Got tired of the weak power supplies on the old USB spec, so…
-
Okay, I’ll try this. Did also not know that the bolt signal is no longer available with current Raspbian.
Oh, the controller does not enter standby, I have it running 24/7.
Ordered a power supply with 3A to be sure. I’ll report back. -
FYI. the bolt is still active, fresh copy of the OS downloaded from their website, on RPI3b+. whipped it together so to test for mirror frame placement.
-
@BKeyport - Good to know, thanks.
-
So, both mirrors are now running on an external 3A power supply.
Unfortunately, the still keep freezing. I fear that I have to setup from scratch, step by step, to see what is causing this. :-( -
Yeah, that would be a good idea, who knows what got screwed up on the old SD cards with the freezing.
-
Installed to both fresh SD cards as well as USB stick before, fresh setup! Only thing that was copied over was the config.js and main.css
-
I think I figured out:
As soon as I use the MMM-News module, MagicMirror will freeze at some point. Uninstalled it - no issues.
