      So I did a direct copy paste of MMM-NewsFeedTicker from a MM where it works flawlessly over to big screen MM where it doesn’t work flawlessly.

      If I comment out the NewsFeedTicker in config.js everything is good. Put back in service and it just pops up a black screen that I assume is some alternative terminal, Electron.
      The only difference is that the MM that works is running older version of MM as I have not updated it.

        @ankonaskiff17 so you may have to run npm install again in the module folder. and check the console for missing modules…

          @sdetweil That wa the ticket. Ran npm install on that module, said it installed 2 components which I took as a positive sign. Un-commented the module in config.js and running well.
