    @sdetweil Hi Sam,
    Thank you for the response, but I am not sure what you are asking me to do. Ctl + Shift+i on the Pi4 or on my Mac (where I am writing this)? Also, I don’t know what palancing is, or the last 4 words of your post. Sorry…
    Actually, just figured out the last 4… in the filter field (duh)… but which filter field?
    Oh and I tried Ctl Shift i on both Pi and Mac, neither one did something. Again sorry about the ignorance…

      @fsne04 pi of course, where MM is, all keys at the same time
      and the ‘filter’ field is the field labeled ‘filter’ in the debug screen

          This is my first time in a forum like this and I don’t actually know how to start a new topic…
          I tried ctl+shft+i on the Raspbian desktop, in the MM config file, in the File Manager and in Chromium, all without any response. I can’t get to the place you have in your screenshot.

                    Ok, in Console. There is an “Electron” Security Warning in yellow about using insecure protocols, could that be it?

                      @fsne04 ignore the warning. put ‘cast’ in the filter field (no quotes)
                      the error may not be in the browser side of the module, but this is how you find out…

                      otherwise, u need to look in the console where u started MM, either npm start, or if using pm2, then pm2 logs --lines=??? where ??? is a number, default 15
