@Sean Hi. After installing the module. When I start the MagicMirror I get this error

@juantata
Sorry, there was my mistake. I left my experimental codes on config example. I fixed the README. Back to the page and copy again (Just remove disabled:disabled["MMM-Youtube"], line.)

[juantata]

@Sean I say: YouTube Michael Jackson Thriller. And the answer is

[juantata]

@sdetweil {
module: “MMM-YouTube”,
position: “top_center”,
config: {
verbose:true,
defaultQuality: “default”,
disableCC: true,
showPlayingOnly: true,
defaultLoop: false,
defaultShuffle: false,
defaultAutoplay: true,
onStartPlay: null,
playerVars: {
controls: 0,
hl: “en”,
enablejsapi: 1,
showinfo: 0,
rel: 0,
cc_load_policy: 0,
},
outNotifications: {
“-1”: “UNSTARTED”,
“0”: “ENDED”,
“1”: “PLAYING”,
“2”: “PAUSED”,
“3”: “BUFFERING”,
“5”: “VIDEO CUED”,
}
}
},

@juantata it seems not allowed. some clips are limited by right owner not to be played out of youtube

[sdetweil]

@juantata forgot the 3 backticks before and after

[juantata]

@sdetweil said in MMM-YouTube:

backticks

Sorry but I’m a newbie. What do you mean with the three backticks?

[sdetweil]

@juantata on the US keyboard, shifted key left of the number 1 ` (like single quote, but leaning to the left) . the non shifted symbol is tidle ~

Code and Syntax Highlighting

[mumblebaj]

@sdetweil I thought it was the other way around? Tilda (~) was shifted and back tick (`) non shifted? :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_smiling_eyes:

[sdetweil]

@mumblebaj maybe, my keyboard has them labeled backwards

[juantata]

@sdetweil
Hi. I don’t know where it could be wrong. I have copied it the same.

[A Former User]

@juantata
I don’t know Spanish at all, Anyway “El video no esta disvonible” looks like “The video is not available”
The reason would be various.

• The clip is removed (sometimes it is searchable but not playable)
• The clip is not allowed to be played outside of YouTube websites by it’s right owner. (I don’t know why owners restrict their clip, but some did)

Anyway, that is not the issue of module itself.

[juantata]

@Sean Hi. It asks me to update. How is it done?

[A Former User]

@juantata ???

[juantata]

@Sean An update is available for the MM-Youtube module.
Your current installation is 1 commint changes behind the master branch.

[juantata]

@juantata Go to MMM-YouTube directory then do the command git pull, but the update was not so important so you can ignore it.

[juantata]

@Sean Hi. I’m sorry to give you the can so much.
To call the youtube module I say:
Ok google + singer’s name + song title, and the result is this

The result is the same with any video I request.
