      Hi all,
      I am a complete beginner at everything. Only been coding for a few months and it hasn;t even been in JS or HTML!
      Couldn;t resist trying to get a MagicMirror and with the help of a proficient mate here I am.

      So here is my problem…(see attached image)… I am not sure where it is other than it relates to the MMM-MyTraktSeries module, which shows ‘loading…’ when displayed on my mirror.

      Was wondering if someone could explain the issue to me (and possibly a solution?) so that I have better understanding on how to deal with this in the future!

      Many thanks from me!

          This is the error that the log spat. The module (MyTraktSeries) loads on the screen but then is stuck in a constant state of ‘Loading’ (literally what it says on screen). The rest of the modules come up fine and work as normal. I ran the log to see if anything was happening behind the screens.

            @erycken press ctrl-shift-i (lower case letter i) to open the debug console and select the console tab, you may have to scroll back to see if the module reported an error here

              @sdetweil I am sorry, but where/how am I supposed to do this? I have disabled keyboard/mouse access to my pi and SSH in due to its location.

              Edit : I have no idea how it was disabled as a mate did it.

                @erycken bummer, u need keyboard access to the MM screen to do the ctrl-shift-i…

                you could restart the mm in dev mode to do the same thing, but u will need keyboard access to select the console tab

                  @sdetweil Well… i just did the updates and it has given me a black screen… I think I may be able to get around the keyboard thing once I get back up and running!

                    Ok so my mirror is completely messed up since the update (might be partially my fault though I have no idea) so I am going to try and rebuild my mirror from scratch over the next few days…
                    I’ll update you all on if the rebuild helps the error I am currently experiencing or if it is still present. Thanks…

                      Completely remade my mirror (without doing updates this time) and still getting the loading issue… Just a little FYI.
                      @sdetweil I did as you suggested and I didn’t see anything stand out to me other than this :

                      Suggestion?

                        can u scroll back up in the debug log, to the top…
                        and also

                        minimize the mirror screen, alt-spacebar, n
                        to be able to see the console window

                        i just installed 2.4.1 on my new pi… and its working fine…
