Guys can somebody help me…
i tried installing this module into my magic mirror and i have been following the step by step process and i am already in the part were i already received the full config with refreshToken. However, when i tried to encode it in the config and restarts the magic mirror it only shows black/blank screen. please somebody help me what to do next…

@rguardaya2008 look in the console window were u start magic mirror , npm start or pm2,
if pm2, use the pm2 logs --lines=??? command (??? is 15 by default)also, open the developers window, ctrl-shift-i,
and select the console tab and scroll up…I made a script of the steps for the install , and there as a missing piece, which the scrip corrects
u can download it, make it executable, and it will do the whole install steps… (but not the auth step u just did, so keep that)https://www.dropbox.com/s/omrx3vztjp738hf/do-install.sh?dl=0

rec FAIL formats: can’t open input `default’: snd_pcm_open error: No such file or directory” when i record… -
@rguardaya2008 arecord -l

speak some words
ctrl-c to end record
aplay test.wav, do you hear your words?but if the mic is bad, nothing software can do to fix it…

@sdetweil thank you for guiding me so far… i was able to record and play using the codes you gave me, the mic seems to be fine. however, still i cannot open alexa on my MM. what did i miss?
-
@rguardaya2008 sorry. I do not know.

So i’m at the point in the set pu where it’s saying “Getting response from Amazon…”, but it’s been going for like 30 mins. Any ideas on how long this should take, or did i probably make a mistake above?

@stalker401 should be fairly instant.
