      @axled thanks got the remote module working, but then when I send the commands (succesfully confirmed by the web page) I see no streaming going on in MM.

      By the way I choosed to install the dev branch of your module.

        Can you show me the MMM-Dreambox Part of your config and some logs?

        Playing does not work, is selecting DB-SERVICE-NEXT (PREV) working?

          @axled this is the config part:

          		{
          			module: 'MMM-Dreambox',
          			header: 'Vu+ Duo²',
          			position: 'bottom_left',
          			disabled: false,
          			config: {
          				apiBase: 'http://*.*.*.*:****',
          				omxargs: ' --win 320,180,1600,900  -o both ',
          				refreshInterval: 1000 * 30, //refresh every 30 seconds
          				apiabout: '/web/about',
          				apiservices: '/web/getallservices',
          				apiepgnow: '/web/epgnow?bRef=1%3A7%3A1%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3AFROM%20BOUQUET%20%22userbouquet.favourites.tv%22%20ORDER%20BY%20bouquet',
          				apizap: '/web/zap?sRef=',
          				apiTimerlist: '/web/timerlist',
          				apiServicelistplayable: '/web/servicelistplayable?sRef=1%3A7%3A1%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3AFROM%20BOUQUET%20%22userbouquet.favourites.tv%22%20ORDER%20BY%20bouquet'
          				}
          		},
          

          I wanted then to paste here the logs and what was happening when sendings commands, but all I get now is

          status	"error"
          reason	"unknown_command"
          info	"original input: {\"action\":\"NOTIFICATION \",\" notification\":\"DB-PLAY\"}"
          

          I feel like I am missing something? :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat:

          This is btw the MMM-Remote-Control config part:

          		{
          			module: 'MMM-Remote-Control',
          			// uncomment the following line to show the URL of the remote control on the mirror
          			position: 'bottom_left'
          			// you can hide this module afterwards from the remote control itself
          		},

            it is not easy to give support, with this less informations.
            As you send me .xml files some days ago, i saw some minor errors in your config.js

            1. apibouquet and listmax is missing, so module use defaults (apibouquet: 0, listmax: 15)
            2. apiepgnow and apiServicelistplayable are wrong, to match to your receiver/xml file you send me the should look as follows:
            • apiepgnow: ‘/web/epgnow?bRef=1%3A7%3A1%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3AFROM%20BOUQUET%20%22userbouquet.TerrestrialTv.tv%22%20ORDER%20BY%20bouquet’,
            • apiServicelistplayable: ‘/web/servicelistplayable?sRef=1%3A7%3A1%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3AFROM%20BOUQUET%20%22userbouquet.TerrestrialTv.tv%22%20ORDER%20BY%20bouquet’,

            Can you please also answer my question:
            Playing does not work, is selecting DB-SERVICE-NEXT (PREV) working?

            To help you further i need some screenshots of the module on your mirror and some logs (pm2 or from the browser by using F12).

              @axled sorry for the late reply. :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat:

              I’ve installed your module from scratch and now every MMM-Remote-Control command (but streaming) is working.

              Honestly I can’t understand what is wrong because before going to use my decoder with your module all Dreambox-like applications worked like a charm.

              What if it depends on using a different WebIf port (I am not using the default 80/8080 port)?
              And even if why not?
              So far every Android Dreambox app (ie. DreamDroid) or Windows channel editor program for Dreambox that I’ve used worked perfectly.

                Some ideas:
                Start streaming takes up to 15 seconds, did you wait long enough?
                Are you streaming SD or HD channels? HD needs mpg license.
                Is the play symbol (triangle) shown after sending the command DB-PLAY?

                        Okay, now I understand your request better.
                        Unchecked it, should be working now.

                          Looks like it does not work VU+ boxes.
                          I used the latest master branch (installed the complete module new).
                          All api paths have been checked and return xml data.

                          Dreambox DM7020HD:

                          $ pm2 restart mm

                            @evroom that’s EXACTLY what happens on my mirror as an owner of a Vu+ product.

                            @AxLed can you please look into this? :)

                              Can you please post your config for MMM-Dreambox (as i guess there are two problems):

                              1. at least one of your links are wrong or VU+ uses different syntax (for the xml links)
                              2. i think node_helper.js line 129 is wrong in my code, i cant correct it without testing (error.code is null and my code expects an value)
                              apiBase: 
                              omxargs:
                              refreshInterval: 
                              apiabout: 
                              apiservices: 
                              apiepgnow:
                              apizap:
                              apiTimerlist: 
                              apiServicelistplayable:
                              apibouquet: 0, //bouquet, if there is more than one under apiservices (/web/getallservices), important apiepgnow and apiServicelistplayable have to match to the selected bouquet
                              listmax:

                                Hi AxLed,

                                Here is my VU+ config:

                                {
                                module: 'MMM-Dreambox',

                                position:"top_left",
                                header: 'Dreambox',

                                To be honest, I do not see any difference between a Dreambox and a VU Plus, in fact the bRef and sRef are exactly the same and even the same as in the README.
                                But if you say there is a difference …

                                If the line 129 needs modifying, I can do so by hand.
                                Perhaps will save you some time.

                                And could you tell us if you tested on a VU+ or on a Dreambox (or both) ?

                                  To answer your questions:

                                  • i tested on a dreambox (dm800se) with a single dvb-c tuner
                                  • modifying line 129 could help, i need the output of ‘error’ and ‘response’, as i only check for ‘error’ (true/false) and only for response.Statuscode 200 and 404.

                                  I have some questions too:

                                  • if you enter http://192.168.178.47:80/web/servicelistplayable?sRef=1%3A7%3A1%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3AFROM BOUQUET "userbouquet.favourites.tv" ORDER BY bouquet in you browser, is there xml showing up?
                                  • if not, what else is shown?
                                  • the xml files you send me on 29th of december, where they from your dreambox or from VU+?
                                  • if the were from the dreambox, can you please send me the following file from your VU+ by email ak10zeichen-xy@yahoo.de :
                                  • http://192.168.178.47:80/web/getallservices

                                  So i can check what is going wrong.

                                    Yes, now I remember that you used a dm800se.
                                    And then it was you who explained me how to post xml data in this forum (which I forgot again).

                                    The xml files from December were from a Dreambox.
                                    Perhaps you mean that the syntax of the xml data is different, not the syntax in the config file.
                                    Then I understand.

                                    The servicelistplayable URL return xml data, as do all /web/ calls.

                                    The getallservices xml data will arrive by mail in a minute.

                                      Thanks for the files, i tested with your files, but i am getting a different error:
                                      Your error (some topics above): Problem at servicelistplayable
                                      My error (with your VU xml files): Problem in MMM-Dreambox.js at line 387, where the timerlist expects a value. I can fix this error, somehow my code expects at least one timer.

                                      Can you please tell me, at which point/line of code you get an error?
                                      If your error is in MMM-Dreambox.js at line 387 can you try to add one timer in the future an test again?

                                        Sent you a timer list.

                                        The last time I checked, the error pointed to line 129.

                                        Unfortunately my DLAN adaptor died where my MagicMirror and other devices are connected.
                                        When it works again, I can answer the other questions.

                                          So i can fix the handling of an “empty” timerlist meanwhile, but this will take until the end of the week.

                                          I am looking forward to hear from you if your DLAN adoptor is back online.

                                            Just sent you pm2 logs output.
                                            There is a lot more than I initialy placed on the forum.
                                            I thought all errors were the same, but the node_helper.js line differ.
