I can't get mmm-screencast to work

jste84

@JerryP so tried unplugging the shield when I hit the cast button it says no devices found.

module: 'MMM-Screencast',
		position: 'bottom_right', 
		config: {
			position: 'center', 
			castName: 'Mirror',
			height: 300,
			width: 500,
		}},

@jste84 did u check to see if there are any errors, pm2 logs or dev window. sounds like the listen for incoming requests is not setup

u will have to have adresss:“0.0.0.0”, and ipWhitelist:[]

to allow machines (phone table laptop…) to connect to the mm server running the module

@sdetweil how do I check for those?

The address and ipWhitelist are both set this way.

I’m thinking that you want something that’s not possible. Or I’m confused.
The Shield is a different device. so unplug the power of it.
Than take a phone whits is on the seem wifi network as the mirror
Then use your phone en pick a movie on YouTube.com
and hit the cast button.

Your config looks oke.
The pull is als don
so I don’t know why it’s not working

In the picture you can see my 2 mirrors.
“Huiskamer”
“Spiegeltje”

@jste84

var config = {
	address: "0.0.0.0"
	port: 8080,
	ipWhitelist: ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1"],
	useHttps: false, 		
	httpsPrivateKey: "", 
	httpsCertificate: "", 

	language: "nl",
	timeFormat: 24,
	units: "metric",

@JerryP your whitelist says only apps inside mirror can connect

use

ipWhitelist:[],

JerryP

@sdetweil i removed the ip adres of the laptop an tv.
But for the mmm-screencast module is That no problem

sdetweil

@JerryP why cant u start allowing everything, and tighten it up later.

@JerryP the only difference between your config and mine is ipWhitelist for me is [] and language is English.

I unplugged the shield as that is what you asked me to try.

I then used my phone to try and cast… But had no joy. It didn’t find any devices. I rebooted the mirror and it still didn’t find it
