MMM-EasyPix problem... missing a step?

unless the files or folder have the wrong permissions…

In which case, it wouldn’t be the module that is at fault. Just keeping it simple!

i copied the config info from the mm-easypix readme, and pasted into the config.js modules section, and restarted the mirror… no other changes

Interesting. I changed nothing other than the name of the picture I wanted to test with. I’ll dig back into it, thank you for your responses.
My apologies for delayed response, I haven’t had much time for personal projects lately.

I had a similar issue. I added a comma to the end of the line “sounds:”

            {
                    module: "MMM-EasyPix",
                    position: "middle_center",
                    config: {
                            picName: "DSC01423.JPG",             // Enter the picture file name.
                            maxWidth: "75%",                     // Size picture precisely. Retains aspect ratio.
                            sounds: ["1.mp3", "me2.mp3"],         // mp3 sound file names in quotes seperated by commas for Hello-Lucy
                            updateInterval: 30 * 60 * 1000,      // updates display
                            animationSpeed: 3000,
                    }
            },

Hope this helps

Would love to know how to have a slide show without having to create a list in the config.js file.

Good catch! Thanks for bringing that to my attention, mate. :thumbsup: I’ve updated the readme example.

Again, this module was really only meant to be an accessory to Hello-Lucy so there was no need for the slideshow. However, this module

does an excellent job of run a slideshow of your pictures.

@Stoffbeuteluwe

There are no mp4 files in use by MMM-EasyPix. Are you talking about the animated face (face.gif)?

@Stoffbeuteluwe autoplay is a new restriction in the browsers… you have to click on something… dumb for a mirror with no mouse!!

fix

edit the smart-mirror/main.js
find the line

let mainWindow

and change it so it looks like this

let mainWindow;

function createWindow() {
    app.commandLine.appendSwitch('autoplay-policy', 'no-user-gesture-required');  //< -------- added

then save and restart MM
