      Hello all,
      I have the problem, when I insert the MMM Wallpaper module from kolbyjack I have only a black screen with a mouse courser. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong.

              {
                     module: "MMM-Wallpaper",
                     position: "fullscreen_below",
                     config: {
                              // See "Configuration options" for more information.
                             source: "bing",
                             slideInterval: 5 * 60 * 1000, // Change slides every minute
                      }
              },

          I do not get it. I checked the config.js with npm run config:check. No syntax error. Deleted the module and tried MMM-nasaastropic instead. The same result. A black screen, I see only the courser. Config.js checked, no synatx error

              This is my MMM-Wallpaper and use Reddit instead of bing.

              Just replace source: “/r/MoviePosterPorn”, TO source: “bing”,

              {
              module: “MMM-Wallpaper”,
              position: “fullscreen_below”,
              classes: ‘scheduler’,
              config: {
              module_schedule: {from: ‘0 6 * * *’, to: ‘0 23 * * *’ },
              source: “/r/MoviePosterPorn”,
              maximumEntries:100,
              slideInterval: 30 * 1000,
              updateInterval: “90000”,
              filter: “grayscale(0.5) brightness(0.5)”,
              shuffle: true,
              size: “contain”, // cover,contain,auto
              }
              },

                You can delete these rows, they are used for MMM-Scheduler:

                classes: ‘scheduler’,
                and
                module_schedule: {from: ‘06 ***’, to: ‘0 23 ***’},

                  @sdetweil I have now tried your script, but the screen is still black.
                  Can you maybe do something with that?
