That is because just parsing of other calendars is not finished before the first drawing of current loaded events. Just wait, in the next turn remains will be displayed.
Or set enough time of firstDrawingDelay to wait for all the parsing be completed.

is there a way to set priority of loading? If the trumba calendar referenced (Seahawks) is causing issues, I’d rather my main calendar loads first (Hold display until loaded), then the “trash” calendar, then the Trumba calendar. If not, feature request.

Thanks again, Love being able to make this exactly the way I want.

It would be over spec I think. Because;

This symptom would be improved by delayFirstDrawing to some degree. I think a few seconds would be enough to complete all parsing. If some calendar would take over 10 seconds, it would be the connection issue not parsing issue.
This symptom would be issued on short time only when MM starts. Usually, after the first cycle of refreshing, this issue would be gone away.
None the less assigning priority, there would be no guarantee for the specific calendar completing to parse first. The main reason for this delay lays in the network connection quality between your RPI and the calendar server.

Anyway thanks for the suggestion. I’ll research more.

@Sean I think I have it figured out now. If looks like putting the calendar scanInterval in the default section (look at the code I posted above) doesn’t apply it to all the calendars. Instead it looks like they are using a default value of 30 minutes. Does that make sense?

Hmmm. without real ical data, I can’t say anything about your case. Configuration itself seems nothing wrong.
When I changed your updateInterval to 1000*30, it refreshes per 30 seconds.
If you don’t mind, send me your configuration with real ical URL. my email is eouia0819@gmail.com

Wait a sec. I think found something.

You have a mistyping in defaultSet. Not calendars, Fix it to calendar

@Sean You can also do it through PM2 directly.

In a second session run “pm2 logs” – it’ll live update the logs on that session’s screen.

@Sean That did the trick. You used Calendars (with an S) for the main code section but the default section only used calendar (without the s). I didn’t notice the syntax difference. Thanks for the help.

@cskenney
Because calendar of defaultSet would be applied to each calendar of calendars:[]. But anyway, my English is not so good so there could be confusing.

cskenney

@Sean No, it’s fine. I just didn’t notice the syntax difference when I created the default section.

Thanks again for your help.
