here is the list of MagicMirror module positions
https://docs.magicmirror.builders/modules/configuration.html

i changed the showWidth and showHeight but while they make the picture smaller, the quality seems to be reduce?
i have also added #GPHOTO in CSS with width and height at 50% but it still feel like its showing full screen…

in the existing module folder do

git fetch origin pull/#/head:local_branch_name

replace # w 146
and pick a name for branch name

the when that completes (no message)
do
git checkout whatever name u used

now your photos module is using the pull request version

then the normal instructions should work

edit : shows what u get for not checking and trusting some ‘now old’ post on the internet!

https://github.com/aneaville/MMM-GooglePhotos/issues/145

edit the node_helper.js

and add

       debug:true,

between these two lines

module.exports = NodeHelper.create({
  start: function() 

then stop mm, pm2 stop all if using pm2

then

cd ~/MagicMirror
npm start >somefile.txt

wait til u see the error
then ctrl-c on the mm terminal window
(alt-spacebar, n to.minimize mm screen if you didn’t use ssh)

I was about the do a clean install but then I thought I will just remove the unused folders first! I guess its from pocketshhinx or sphinxbase, I had installed some of those voice assistant modules! I removed those two folders and looks like now the data usage is back to normal. Will monitor for a day, if this doesnt help, will need to do a clean install

how big are the pictures? and how many are there?

at 1 mb each for 960 pics, it could be 1gb in a day

I don’t know why I’m seeing this vs. the other error all of a sudden. I still think it’s hard to blame the network exclusively. I have other modules too that all run fine at the exact same time.

I’ve tried to figure out how to catch the error but I don’t think I can. From what I can tell it’s making the async call and then while waiting for a response it loses the connection for some reason. I’m not skilled enough to re-write try the async queue method referenced in the github post I linked to previously. I’m just hopeful someone who has the same problem might have the skills to fix it or at least catch it better so that the module doesn’t fail completely. (Meanwhile I’ll keep trying to identify what the problem is).

getaddrinfo EAI_AGAIN

that means your network failed… are u using a pihole for connection security?

seen lots of failures thru pihole…

Popping up at this line (I have a log entry directly before that shows up, and one after that doesn’t)

            		var response = await this.request(token, 'mediaItems:search', 'post', null, data)
