Hello,
i have the same problem.

my config.js looks like

{
       			module: 'MMM-Button',
        		config: {
				//https://github.com/PtrBld/MMM-Button
				//https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/iot/samples/pushbutton
				//pin GIPO 5 und Ground
				buttonPIN: '5'
			}
		},

{
      			module: 'MMM-Podcast',
       			position: 'middle_center',
        		config: {
          			feedurl: 'http://www.tagesschau.de/export/video-podcast/webm/tagesschau-in-100-sekunden/'
       		 	}
		},

My button.js looks like

/* global Module */

/* Magic Mirror
 * Module: MMM-Button
 *
 * MIT Licensed.
 */

Module.register('MMM-Button',{	
	requiresVersion: "2.1.0",
	defaults: {
		buttonPIN: 5,
		//time in miliseconds before another button click is recognized
		clickDelay: 500,		
	},	
	// Override socket notification handler.
	socketNotificationReceived: function(notification, payload) {
		if (notification === "BUTTON_PRESSED"){
			this.sendNotification(notification, payload)
		}
	},	
	start: function() {
		this.sendSocketNotification('BUTTON_CONFIG', this.config);
		Log.info('Starting module: ' + this.name);
	}
});

@alex84 Thank You,
Now i have no mor Black Screen, but the Button dont work.
I have a Pyton Script, this works.

#Tagesschau.py
import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
import os
import sys
from subprocess import Popen

GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)

GPIO.setup(5, GPIO.IN, pull_up_down=GPIO.PUD_UP)

movie1 = (“http://media.tagesschau.de/video/100s/2017/0504/TV-100s-1840.webm.h264.mp4”)

last_state1 = True
last_state2 = True

input_state1 = True
input_state2 = True
quit_video = True

player = False

while True:
#Read states of inputs
input_state1 = GPIO.input(5)

#If GPIO(5) is shorted to Ground
if input_state1 != last_state1:
    if (player and not input_state1):
        os.system('killall omxplayer')
        omxc = Popen(['omxplayer', movie1])
        player = True
    elif not input_state1:
        omxc = Popen(['omxplayer', movie1])
        player = True

#If omxplayer is running and GIOP(5) are not shorted to Ground
elif (player and input_state1 and input_state2):
    os.system('killall omxplayer')
    player = False

#Set last_input states
last_state1 = input_state1

Has anybody a working config and button config that he can post?
