MagicMirror stutters and doesn't run smoothly

drx1984

@sdetweil yes certainly more than a Raspi 4 or 5.
then are the script and path correct?
I don’t notice any difference and it still stutters.

sdetweil

@drx1984 yes, looks OK.

I would try to run one module at a time

to disable the other, add

disabled: true,

after the module: line
so you don’t have to redo config.js

we don’t officially support Windows, so I don’t know if you have to do something else to enable gpu for electron.

you could try running under edge, at

http://localhost:8080

@sdetweil yes, I have already tried the exact same configuration under Linux. > unfortunately it stutters there too.
That’s why I thought I’d try it on Windows level.
I will probably install Ubuntu on the Intelnuc again >because Windwos is not official, as you say.

But I don’t think it will stutter anymore, unfortunately.

sdetweil

@drx1984 well, you tried before enabling the GPU on linux so I still think the best approach is to test with one module at a time… globe alone, rain alone. see what they do

then enable the other…

the IntelNuc is powerful enough, right?

I don’t think so. It’s the MMM-Globe module. It’s pure javascript and doesn’t make use of the graphics hardware at all. You might get away with turning off the MMM-Rain and running just the globe module. Might.

I really should get around to rewriting it.

@bhepler
Good morning, I have now deactivated MMM Rain. The Globle module is still shaking/stuttering a bit.

I have already set the parameter “export ELECTRON_ENABLE_GPU=1” in the mm.sh file.
But yes then the Globle module should also have GPU support.
Can you fix that?

bhepler

@drx1984 - Yeah, I can. It’s on the list of projects. I don’t know when I’ll get to it. For you I’ll bump it up the priority list a bit. But I don’t have an estimate.

Good morning,
aha ok, thank you very much, yes that would be very good.
