    • Getting Loss of Signal fault on large monitor.

      I have a monitor in bedroom that is not being used so decided to build another display for bedroom.
      This new build will run for a while then the monitor will go to a default No Signal screensaver built in to monitor.
      I dug around and found some MagicMirror tutorial that seemed to address that problem. Ran through tutorial which seemed like it was somewhat out of date as it was dated 2016. I had already set up the MM to start automatically via pm2 prior to this and all was fine. but on that first reboot after doing the tutorial for screen blanking/screensaver the MM didn’t start and got a fullscreen terminal window with the text in a crazy small size/screen resolution.

      Re-Commented out line item “x-server-command=X .s O .dpms” in .conf file and everything seemed to return to normal including the loss of signal fault which never was resolved.

      Is there a more current rendition of tutorial to fix this problem?
      This tutorial was by KirAsh4 dated June 15th, 2016
      Like on step 3 or so it says it is addressing screensaver and screen blanking

    • Symbolic Link fault Question

      I’m trying to copy my MM from existing Pi4 setup to another Pi4
      The process is mostly working but I’m getting some "cannot create symbolic link messages in iFrame node modules and node modules in a Vendor folder and others as it copies to SD card.

      Is there a way to copy MM from one Pi to another without incurring these faults. Physically, I’m copying the ~/MagicMirror and all its contents to an SD card which I will put in usb port and then copy to ~ on second Pi

      I’m not a programmer but can fumble my way through basic file manipulation but this is a problem and it is slow as molasses.

    • RE: Adafruit IO Module

      Any chance you could post your config.js file minus private stuff? Or just the mqtt portion? I tried to do but went different path. Tried using iframe and that didn’t work at all.

    • How to create border around MMM-iFrame displaying YouTube stream

      I want to put a border around the YouTube feed I am displaying via the MMM-iFrame module. I’m not a programmer but have tried setting a border via the module CSS multiple ways with no success. When I copy the embed code I see there is a border property but the module author, alberttwong, has me stripping out everything except the url and autoplay.

      https://www.youtube.com/embed/tHKvusCEic4?autoplay=1

      This is embed code from the YouTube share option minus the iframe start/stop because it was preventing me from pasting in YouTube code.

      width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/tHKvusCEic4" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen

      I’ve tried various ways of plugging that option back in, to no avail. I also see that the YouTube player has some border options also but I’m stumped. Anyone have any suggestions?
      I hope I placed the code blocks correctly in this queston.
