@lmhmm Also, check the dataUrl that you have. I changed it to the one in the module Github and then it worked fine.

@lmhmm - My apologies for the delay in responding. I’ve been out of the country for the past couple of weeks. I’ll get to your issue this weekend.

Hmm. It appears that the BirdNET website is down at the present time. There’s not much I can do about that. Which is weird, as it was definitely working yesterday and earlier today.

As soon as it comes up, I’ll troubleshoot the config that @lmhmm posted.

So maybe I’ve got the wrong url? Can you advise the correct one? I thought I’d copied it direct? The code is my phone’s interpretation from a picture. There are no config errors as my mirror runs okays. It seems it’s maybe the url.

Please advise,

Thank you, I really appreciate your help,

@lmhmm - The good news is that BirdNET appears to be back up. The better news is that if you do not include the dataUrl parameter, the default value should just make it work without issue. For example, here is my config that I am currently using for testing:

{
	module: "MMM-BirdNET",
	position: "bottom_left",
	config: {
		popInterval: 15 * 1000,
		popDelay: 2 * 1000,
		markerColor: 'IndianRed',
	}
},

I looked at the config snippet you posted and the immediate thing I noticed is that you do not appear to have a comma after the URL you specified for the dataUrl parameter. If that is the case, then all sorts of weird things could happen.

I suggest that you copy & paste the config.js snippet I included above into your config.js and work from there. The lat & lon parameters you included in your post look good. You should be able to include those without issue. You’re pretty close to having it work the way you want. We should be able to get you up & running with little hassle.

@bhepler Hello Brian,

After installing the latest version and removing the data url it now works! I just need to limit it to the area I particularly want rather than all Britain.

Many thanks, it’s a joy,

Lorraine
