Hi, there is a new Alexa Module

pumpy266

Yes of course.
First of all, does your mirror program actually start?
If so, please run it.

Now ask Alexa to discover new devices.

Does it find anything?

If it does, ask Alexa to “Turn on Page 1”
What happens?

In the meantime I will check my config against yours.

Please post back the results of the above.

@pumpy266 when I have MMM-AlexaControl in my config the screen stays black

pumpy266

Yes, I understand that.
Can Alexa find any devices?

Stoffbeuteluwe

@pumpy266 no device’s found

OK, try this please. Edit your config.js file to look like this:

modules: [

            {
            module: 'MMM-pages',
            config: {
            modules:
                [[ "weatherforecast", "newsfeed"],
                 [ "calendar", "compliments"]],
            fixed: ["MMM-page-indicator"],
            rotationTime:"0",
            }
            },
            {
            module: 'MMM-AlexaControl',
            position: 'middle_center',
            config:{
            image: true,
            pm2ProcessName: "mm",
            vcgencmd: true,
            pages:'2',
            }
            },

Then put your WeatherForecast, newsfeed, calendar and compliments modules as per usual underneath this lot.
Save the config, start MagicMirror (correcting any typos from the above) and ask Alexa to discover new devices.

Hooray! :-) :-)

You may want to change the rotation time in the MMM-pages module, depending on what you want.

Great it’s worked for you.
