Newsfeeder is going way to fast when showing news
-
Like this:
?pi@bathmirror:~ $ npm --version
7.6.3 -
@fribse yes, thanks… so its got the right number for interval.
-
@sdetweil Currently it shows the news in a proper speed, not sure what starts the problem?
-
i got exact the same strange behavior. one day after my last post, the newsfeed worked like expected for 2 weeks. today the updateInterval seems to be ignored.
After a pm2 restart everything is fine again.Now i wrote a cron to restart the Mirror every Night at 2am. will see if this will help.
-
I can confirm this error. Same on my MagicMirror:
It worked for weeks and then out of a sudden the speed changed to turbo-mode during runtime -
Same here. This behaviour started about 2 weeks ago. Some times the feeds cycle as expected, but then all of a sudden they rush through.
-
Yup, I saw it again this morning, odd.
-
@sdetweil Ok, I finally got it tested again.
If I go to my computer and open the webpage via remote it shows the right interval (this was what I did earlier), and the news cycles slowly as it should.
But on the raspberry pi, it still races through the news.
I haven’t restarted the Rpi just to keep the problem, but for me it’s not an easy test on the RPi itself, as the RPi is of course behind the mirror and headless. -
I assume that for some reason some intervals are going crazy during runtime. The problem is gone, if you refresh the page, but it may come again after an uncertain time.
-
As a workaround, till a solution is found
crontab -e
@daily sudo rebootthis will reboot the pi every night at 00:00 am.
-
@sdetweil I opened a Github issue for that: https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/issues/2638
-
I got the same issue since 2.16.
I have one image from 2.15 - no problem so far!The strange thing… first after boot. It working some time like i should… Later… you see the news flashing… so the mirror is mostly black then.
Im using also MM-Pages tho flip to another page every minute.
-
updated to develop version from GitHub
https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/tree/developeverything is fine now, Newsfeeder runs like expected since 1 Week
-
@sek_is_back How do I do that?

No need to reboot the whole pie
0 */5 * * * pm2 restart MagicMirror -
We found the reason for that issue. A fix is merged into the develop branch.
