Re: MMM-MotionEye - surveillance video stream on your mirror!

I’m trying to get the MotionEye modul to work, my installation is on two PI’s. I can see the MotionEye stream in the browser of the MM-Pi but on the MM itself I just see a “broken” picture icon.

This is part of my config:

	        {
		        module: 'MMM-MotionEye',
			position: 'bottom_right',
			config: {
				url: "http://192.168.0.150:8081",
				forcedRefreshInterval: 60000,
				width: "400px",
				debug: true,
			}
		},

this is the stream info of my MotionEye PI
(

this is from the pm2 log:

[25.03.2023 19:23.37.714] [LOG]   Module helper loaded: MMM-MoonPhase
[25.03.2023 19:23.37.715] [LOG]   No helper found for module: MMM-bernwordclock.

[25.03.2023 19:23.37.995] [LOG]   Initializing new module helper ...

Any suggestion what I’m doing wrong?

@sdetweil thanks for the suggestion, I’ve putted the line in my config and for now every thing looks fine

After a while the log file (mm-out.log) of pm2 gets to big (>22Gb) and uses all the space of my sd card. I just delete the file and everything runs fine again. I would like to know if I have to turn of the log or is there something wrong and filling my log?

I get a calender fetcher event every few seconds

Calendar-Fetcher: Broadcasting 12 events.

Is that normal?

Re: Problem with calender
I managed to display my calender from the provider mailbox.org. To increase security I would link to use the option of my provider to protect the link with a password but I don’t know which auth method to use in MM-Calender config, any suggestions?

In the settings of the provider I can choose a password but no user.

npm install electron@latest

I ran into troubles when updating to 2.6.0, before on 2.5.0 everything worked fine.

I get errors when update with git pull && npm install, below the npm debug_log

15 error npm -v 1.4.21
16 error code ELIFECYCLE

when I manually try to start via npm start it states that

run-start.sh: 4: run-start.sh: electron: not found

so I tried to install/update electon but had no luck

what am I missing?

I have a problem with my .ics file for the standard calendar module. The exeptions “exdate” of an event are stored in the wrong format, it look like this:

but they should look like this:

Since these are wrong, none of the calendar elements are shown. Any suggestions how to change that?

I’m changing from gmail to mailbox.org and I’d like to add my calender like I did with gmail. Unfortunately from my new calender provicer mailbox.org I can’t get a .ics share, the only thing I get is a link looking like this https://share.mailbox.org/ajax/share/… or the CalDAV link looking like this https://dav.mailbox.org/caldav/… Is there a way to feed my MMM-Calender (or maybe a different module)?
