      @feigi Yes, as @sdetweil said, I’m not using a “node_helper” at all. It’s not needed for the player. It looks like it’s loading as it should. If you don’t see the video, try putting it in another region just to see if it plays. I have only tested the player on my mirror (Ubuntu server with XFCE desktop on a Intel NUC machine) and on a Ubuntu server (running in a container (LXC) then accessing the mirror from a Windows 10 machine in Chrome). And both of them are working… But I can imagine that the RPi may struggle…

      If you cant find it, make it and share it!

        @Snille Yes, i use your Version. The content of my cloned folder on the rPI is identical to your folder on github. So i am using the same Version.
        Why its showing that its trying to load a node_helper, i have no idea. I dont even know what that is :) I just started the MM without any other modules than yours and did not see an Error and just wanted to show that.

        But its ok if this is not possible to play on a rPI. Was worth a try!

        Thanks anyway for your support and the great work! :)

          the system ALWAYS tries and reports… nothing worrisome…

            One minor note - in your readme on github, there’s no install instructions. I’d add that…

            Seems to be good otherwise.

                    @elitecybernet Hi! Yes, default is “no sound”, because if you set it to yes, it will not “autoplay”. But you can just change the option: muted to false.

                    {
                      module: 'MMM-Videoplayer',
                      position: 'middle_center',
                      config: {
                        muted: false,
                      }
                    },
                    

                    Like so… :)
