Hi Ian,
Below is the relevant output of the log (error log is empty). Note that now (Monday at 3 PM) all modules are dimmed though they should not be…

Hi @anatius (Christian)
Okay, I think I see the problem, and a fix is in the works, its just going to take a little time until I can finish it.
I’ve created an issue on github which contains more details on why this is happening.
Until the fix is in place, you have two (understandably sub-optimal) options
- leave the mirror running and it should self-correct after the next 8pm and/or 7/8am depending on when it is started :(
- temporarily use the same expression for all days of the week, e.g.
global_schedule: [ {from: '0 7 * * *', to: '0 20 * * *', dimLevel: '30'} ]

Hi Ian,
Thanks for the support. You are right indeed, the error corrects itself the first time the scheduler sets the module to undimmed. It is just that the starting conditions are not correct, but this is no big deal for me. It is just that I was too impatient to wait for the scheduler to change status for the first time…
Many thanks for your support!

Firstly, thanks for making such an awesome module!
However, I can get it to work with all of my modules except one… I can’t get it to work with MMM-Instagram. I have it set up just like all of my other modules, but this one just ignores the scheduler script and always runs, never following the code. Here is the module code in config.js:
{ module: 'MMM-Instagram', position: 'top_right', classes: 'scheduler', config: { module_schedule: [ {from: '0 5 * * 1-5', to: '0 9 * * 1-5'}, {from: '0 17 * * 1-5', to: '0 22 * * 1-5'}, {from: '0 6 * * 6-7', to: '0 24 * * 6-7'} ], access_token: '//ACCESS_TOKEN//', count: 200, min_timestamp: 0, animationSpeed: 2500, updateInterval: 12000 } },
any thoughts? here’s a picture of what it looks like when the scheduler is active: https://goo.gl/photos/K3S6HA7m61j5iSEe8

@lucallmon Honestly I’m a bit lost on this one… I’m going to defer to @ianperrin for this one…

https://goo.gl/photos/dFMRL8JkvE5XWvaN7This is what I get when I wake up and the monitor was supposed to go off at night and then turns back on in the morning. This happens every morning. Essentially, the monitor signal cuts but it never actually turns off or enters a low power state as it does when I actually shut down the Pi. This only happens when it’s overnight. When I do a trial off for a few minutes, it doesn’t do it. I think it might be the crappy old monitor, but I don’t know. Any thoughts?

I have found that this white screen that happens every day essentially freezes the entire Magic Mirror and I have to press CRTL+Q to restart. It doesn’t actually freeze the entire RPi.

Hi there!
Thank you for this excellent module! :)
I would like to use the scheduler together with “Profile Switcher”.Scenario:
- Let’s say normally I always show “Clock”, “Monthly calendar” and “Wounderground Weather” (local weather).
- Then on Mondays and Wednesdays at 05:30 to 07:30 I would like to also show “Weather” and “weather forecast” (in my case for another location).
- Then I would like to have a “profile” called “Snille” who (when activated) shows all of the above plus also “System Status” and “Bitcoin” (for example).
I have tried this, but it seams that when a module is scheduled, it get’s “locked” by the scheduler and therefore the “Profile Switcher” can not show it…
Getting this in the console (when selecting the profile):
Will not show currentweather. LockStrings active: module_0_MMM-ModuleScheduler
Will not show weatherforecast. LockStrings active: module_0_MMM-ModuleScheduler
If I “force” to unlock (using my Modlulebar to show and hide) the module it can be showed with the “Profile Switcher”.
I’m thinking… Do you have to “lock” the modules with the scheduler? :)

@ianperrin I have sent a PR to you adding an option to solve the problem. :)
