@Dysantic Thank you for this fix @Dysantic! Works like a charm!

@wirdman Yeah, I will dig around a bit to see what I can come up with. At least mine is controlling my smart devices, so that works for now. Please let me know if you figure it out, and I will do the same.

@wirdman It doesn’t play videos either. It just gives a snippet of what I ask for, but no video.

@wirdman Hey, sorry, been a very busy couple of days. I can use it to change lighting, turning off devices in smart home, but when I ask to play Spotify, it just gives me info about a video, but doesn’t play.

@wirdman Yep, all good. I just needed to do npm rebuild in the MMM-GoogleAssistant folder. I was doing it in the MagicMirror folder. Thanks again!

@wirdman You are the man sir! Much appreciated wirdman!

This morning I noticed that my MMM-GoogleAssistant needed an update, so I updated the module, and now get the black electron screen instead of the Magic Mirror screen. If I removed the module from the config, the Mirror comes up correctly, but when I add my config back, it goes black again. I have tried everything, from removing, then reinstalling, npm rebuild, electron rebuild, and nada. Was working fine until then. Any help would be greatly appreciated. See errors below:

@sdetweil so I had both MMM-GoogleAsistant, and the Mk2 one opened, and got myself confused. I appreciate the wakeup call sdetweil. The assistant is running along great now, thanks to you.

@sdetweil I’m going to start over, and let you know. Thanks for the fast response.

@sdetweil Yeah, sorry, been one of those days.
