        @evroom there are two instances of

        exec('omxplayer '
        

        one at line 40 and one at line 45.

        What shall I do?

          After both lines you need to put the console.log line, one with (1) and one with (2), see my post:

          Locate:
          
          exec('omxplayer '
          
          Append this line:
          
          console.log('DB-PLAY(1): omxplayer '+self.config.omxargs+self.trimPort(self.config.apiBase)+':8001/'+payload[0]);
          
          
          Locate next:
          
          exec('omxplayer '
          
          Append this line:
          
          console.log('DB-PLAY(2): omxplayer '+self.config.omxargs+self.trimPort(self.config.apiBase)+':8001/'+payload[0]);

            In my case I see DB-PLAY(2).

            If you see nothing then it is back to the drawing board.
            Need to see what works and what not and where in the code.

            Nothing reported into PM2 logs. :persevering_face:

              That explains the missing stream.
              You are not getting to the DB-PLAY routine.

              To me it looks like you have an issue with MMM-Remote-Control.
              For example, I almost always get success, provide the IP is right, but the notification can be wrong

              {"status":"success"}
              

              Can you try this:

              $ cd /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Remote-Control
              $ git pull
              $ git status
              $ npm install
              

              And then restart mm and try again.

              You can also put a debug line in the DB-STOP call and do

              http://< MM_IP >:8080/remote?action=NOTIFICATION&notification=DB-STOP
              
              $ vi node_helper.js
              :
              :
                              if (notification === "DB-STOP") {
              console.log('DB-STOP: stop the stream');
                                      exec('pkill omxplayer', null);
                              }
              :
              :
              

              If you do not see this in the pm2 logs, then MMM-Remote-Control seems to be the culprit or the communication between the 2 modules.
              But as it works for both AxLed and me …

                @evroom oh wait what version of MMM-Remote-Control are you using? 🤔

                The original developer (cannot remember the name sorry) one or the new one made by shbatm?

                  @Cr4z33 and @evroom
                  You were pretty busy in debugging so far, somehow i had a similar idea as evroom.

                  You can do an git pull in your MMM-Dreambox folder for the dev branch, i added some debugging informations.

                  $ cd /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Dreambox
                  $ git pull
                  

                  Maybe “zap” or the “zap” Url isnt working.

                  @Cr4z33 can you please update and post the logs, the should look like

                  Debug MMM-Dreambox: omxplayer  --win 320,180,1600,900  -o both http://dm800se.fritz.box:8001/1:0:19:2B5C:41B:1:FFFF014A:0:0:0:
                  Debug MMM-Dreambox: zapstate:zap
                  

                  or

                  Debug MMM-Dreambox: omxplayer  --win 320,180,1600,900  -o both http://dm800se.fritz.box:8001/1:0:1:CBB2:2710:F001:FFFF0000:0:0:0:
                  Debug MMM-Dreambox: zapstate:
                  

                  You can also try to reduce the arguments like mine above to --win 320,180,1600,900 -o both.
                  I use MMM-Remote-Control of Jopyth.

                    I think this one
                    https://github.com/Jopyth/MMM-Remote-Control
                    Cannot find the one from shbatm…

                      By coincidence there was a new post regarding the new module:
                      https://github.com/shbatm/MMM-Remote-Control
                      I do not use this one.
                      Neither does AxLed, so we can be on to something.

                        @evroom yeah definitely a possible reason why I was getting no streams considering that I was using shbatm version!

                        Right now I am not at home, but I will surely try (also what @AxLed said) tomorrow. 👍🏼
