It seems that you need to specify an IPv4 “address” in config, like this:

var config = {
   ipWhitelist:  [],
   address: "0.0.0.0",
}

Worked for me…

@LincolnClay The error indicates the port 8080 is in use. Did you install pm2? If so then Magic Mirror is already started when you run npm start. Just restart it with pm2 restart mm

Building the thing is not that difficult. Get the approval is… ;-)

My wife wasn’t that convinced when I built it, But after after a day with no internet connection at home, and hence no updated trip info on my Ruter module, she had to admit it was nice with a magig mirror in the hallway.

Think I found the “bug” (oversight from my end). New version is now available.

I assume too that the behaviour is different between TV’s. On my LG the screen turns blue with a big message of lost signal on HDMI after 10 seconds after the screen turns off. Not so nice - but then again, nobody should be in the room anyway…? ;-)

@KirAsh4 Isn’t it confusing to have multiple announcements about the same module?

Maybe it is because I threat the Modules/ShowCase thread as a “Yellow Pages” for modules – as I guess many do. And now I feel the entry for “my” module is incorrect because I’ve changed name (or need to update something else).

Adding a new entry just adds confusion for the readers…

But - I’m just a user of this fantastic forum so I’ll add a new post. A bit reluctant though… ;-)

Depending on where the weight of the monitor will go, I don’t think it should be a problem.

What I did was to use carpenter’s squares to fasten the two left/right frames to the top. On this picture the top is the one with ventilation holes:

What you don’t see is that I’ve screewed to top frame to the left/right frame.

The weight of the monitor is on two pieces of wood that is screewed to the sides. Those pieces of wood keeps the monitor from falling back too. On this picture it looks like the weight go to the bottom frame, but that is not true:

@open_book Seems you are missing a comma between the stops.

Nice! Now I just need to get an touch mirror… 😊

Hi

A couple of moth’s ago I started to get this message. No doubt the popularity of MM and it’s forum must have increased substantially!

The question is: what would it take to make room for the increased traffic? Ad’s to paying for more capasity or a way to donate?

Keep up the good work!
