How to display the mirror remotely?
-
@bibi just use ctrl m to minimise MM then you can do what you want. Oh missed that let’s see your config file as that is probably what it is
-
@dazza120 look like you are a step forward :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat:
1st im trying to display MM on the remote screen. or at least find a way to do so…
but i keep your shortcut for a later stage ;-) -
@bibi lol through up your config file, I use VNC on my phone to talk to and do stuff on the magic mirror, install MMM-Remote-Control and MMM-Remote-Control-Repositories this will make it easy for you to update your modules one click 😉
-
@dazza120 will check these modules! thx
-
@bibi should just be the main config file, through up the file so we can see if you have missed anything, I take it that this isn’t showing via HDMI either?
-
@dazza120 well the aim was not to use another module as MMM-remote-control to be able to display the mirror on the phone for instance but i’ll give it a try when possible.
-
@bibi the repository control needs that module to work this is mearly to update the modules use VNC to do everything else, but as said does it display the MM via Hdmi?
-
@dazza120 yes via hdmi it working perfectly fine. i just wanted to avoid switching on / off my monitor each time i do a change either in a module or custom.css. i wanted to have a easy way to refresh MM after a change was done and to see the results of those changes.
-
@bibi yeah VNC is what you need, then a pm2 reastart mm in terminal from the VNC viewer
-
@dazza120 :relieved_face: but neither the restart or the start cmd will display the mirror as i expected… i have tightvncserver installed but maybe x11vnc is needed? idk this
