and scroll up to see any info, or errors…
u can also filter for just messages from a single module by putting part of the module name in the filter entryfieldSure, I can do that, but is there a way to do that through the console? To physically access the pi I have to climb a ladder. I’m going to do that now but it would be awesome if I don’t have to next time.
-
@Darkmx-6 not that I have found
-
Humm… ctrl shift i doesn’t seem to work. may be it is just slow, I’m rebooting now and am going to try again. I’m using a raspberry pi zero.
-
yeah, it does nothing… is there a way to access it with the mouse?
My Keyboard is connected and working because I can quit magic mirror with the keyboard.
-
@Darkmx-6 all three keys together, ctrl-shift and the letter i (as in Initial)
-
yep, like if I’m hitting ctrl + alt + delete correct?
instead it’s ctrl shift i
-
@Darkmx-6 correct
-
Yeah I can’t get it to come up.
I’m not sure what else I can do.
-
@Darkmx-6 if u can change the startup, npm start dev opens the developers window
-
I am trying a clean install now
-
is this the start file you are talking about?
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ ls chromium_start.sh mmstart.sh package-lock.json MagicMirror node-v10.16.0-linux-armv6l pi@raspberrypi:~ $pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo nano mmstart.sh GNU nano 3.2 mmstart.sh #!/bin/bash cd ~/MagicMirror node serveronly & sleep 30 xinit /home/pi/chromium_start.sh npm start devIs that where it goes?
Man doing this project makes me feel so dumb I need to learn more, any suggestions?
-
Oh an just to update with the clean install I had the same issue.
-
I am also now using a Raspberry Pi 3 B+
-
Well I ended up going to a static picture because I can’t think of what else to do.
-
@Darkmx-6 i don’t know where mmstart.sh came from… it is not part of the base MagicMirror solution.
the MagicMirror start script is ~/MagicMirror/installers/mm.sh
it does not run serveronly… it assumes you are running the mirror user experience ON the same machine.
i don’t know if EasyBack works on the remote client of serveronly… THAT browser would have to enable autoplay… our fix was for the electron browser running ON the same machine
edit:
ok, i see what you are doing… using chromium for the browser for some reason…so u have to disable the autoplay blocker there , from
https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2017/09/autoplay-policy-changesYou can decide to disable entirely the autoplay policy by setting the Chrome flag "Autoplay Policy" to "No user gesture is required" at chrome://flags/#autoplay-policy. This allows you to test your website as if user were strongly engaged with your site and playback autoplay would be always allowed. -
Ah I see! It works THANK YOU!
Must be because of the pre-made image I installed MagicMirror with.Here is the link:
http://emmanuelcontreras.com/how-to/how-to-create-a-magic-mirror-2-with-pi-zero-w/
Here is the fix:
I edited the file chromium_start.sh found here:
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ ls chromium_start.sh MagicMirror mmstart.sh node-v10.16.0-linux-armv6l package-lock.jsonand added
--autoplay-policy=no-user-gesture-requiredExample:
GNU nano 3.2 chromium_start.sh #!/bin/sh unclutter & xset -dpms # disable DPMS (Energy Star) features. xset s off # disable screen saver xset s noblank # don’t blank the video device matchbox-window-manager & #midori -e Fullscreen -a http://localhost:8080 chromium-browser --autoplay-policy=no-user-gesture-required --incognito --kiosk http://localhost:8080/ -
@Darkmx-6 cool!.. great feedback, thanks we missed that this was a pi0, and that you were running split mode…

what is split mode? If I am I didn’t mean to, I have it directly connected to a TV that I am using as a Bulletin board.
-
@Darkmx-6 there are two ways to run Magic Mirror
all in one(all in one application) , uses electron, npm start.
we’ve solved the pi 0 problem… my installer handles itsplit mode (two applications)
start serverOnly
then view with some other browser (chrome, firefox, ie, …) either locally or from another machine/phone… -

I added your fix for Chromium to the readme. Many thanks, Mate. :thumbsup:
