I am struggling since 4 hours getting this module to work. 😩

When I say ‘Alexa’ the module seems to wake up, but then after ie a question nothing happens.

There’s no evidence of errors when running MM by npm start.

All the setup went fine so I am out of ideas now…

@Sean wow that’s a BIG change in the module! 😲

Can’t wait to start trying it out mate to use all the good stuff you are adding in it.

Thanks for letting us know and have a nice Sunday. 😁

@Sean can you tell us please anything about what’s coming with versione 3? :smiling_face_with_halo:

@frogywill very well done there!

I too found sooo many things I could do (better) with my smart mirror, but unfortunately once it is done it is done… :persevering_face:

@Sean working now!

For some reason previous installation generated a token without .JSON at the end (I know because I made a backup on the Desktop) while this time it was generated properly!

Thanks for your support anyway. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

@Sean OK so to be 100% sure everything is set properly I start installing the module from scratch again generating once more the JSON file and the token.

@Sean said in MMM-Spotify:

The only thing I suspect is that you are using different account on MMM-Spotify and your real spotify player.

Even if wasn’t the token OK at MM loading log?

@Sean tried this config

		{
			module: "MMM-Spotify",
			position: "top_left",
			disabled: false,
			config: {
				// onStart: null, // disable onStart feature with `null`
				// allowDevices: ["Cr4z33 Mirror"],
				control: "hidden", //"default", "hidden" available
				}
		},

and the white big Spotify logo came up at MM loading and then disappeared.

Isn’t it enough to // onStart line to let the module show all the time? :thinking_face:

@Sean OK here is the console log output of default config with above module entry.
Please note that I also launched Spotify playing (after launching MM).

@Sean oh OK. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

I ran npm start, but unfortunately no error came up.

Same thing for PM2 logs.

At the end I tried to delete and reinstall MMM-Spotify, but the issue is still happening.

By the way this is my current config entry:

		{
			module: "MMM-Spotify",
			position: "top_left",
			disabled: false,
			config: {
				onStart: null, // disable onStart feature with `null`
				// allowDevices: ["Cr4z33 Mirror"],
				control: "hidden", //"default", "hidden" available
				}
		},

@Sean I’ve switched Spotify account so I went to the MMM-Spotify folder, deleted the old token, update Client ID and Secret ID into spotify.config.json and created again (succesfully) the new token.

The problem is that now the module doesn’t come up when I want to play music from the smart mirror, BUT I still can hear the music (because of Raspotify I suppose).

Can you think about anything I am missing perhaps? :thinking_face:

PS: did you remove by chance your Telegram account? I am sending you private chat messages from time to time, but they never get a reply or show to be seen…

@costascontis give a look here.

I use these commands everyday with my Samsung TV. :)

@Sean OK thanks.

@Sean said in MMM-Spotify:

@mmmmh
Add this into your css/custom.css

#SPOTIFY.pausing {
display:none;
}

I stopped and quit the Windows 10 Spotify app, but the artwork keeps showing.

@Sean thank you.

The steps (suggested by @Sean) to fix the black screen issue after latest MagicMirror update are:

cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-AssistantMk2
npm install --save-dev electron-rebuild
./node_modules/.bin/electron-rebuild

and if you use MMM-Hotword too

cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Hotword/node_modules/snowboy
npm install --save-dev electron-rebuild
npm install nan
./node_modules/.bin/electron-rebuild

@Sean please check Telegram as I sent you a message with the error I am getting after MM latest update. ;)

@bolish forgot to say that you can contact your country Pilkington office and ask for free glass samples.

I personally asked for the MirroView 50/50 and the normal version to find out which one is the best.

@bolish well unfortunately I noticed the issue only once I already applied the glue so it was too late.

Therefore in my experience what has to be done is to apply some matte coating (ie. a black cotton fabric) on all the LCD frame.
Apart from that if you will still notice it there’s nothing else that can be done. :unamused_face:

@bolish I used the normal one because the 50/50 looked too dark to me once applied over the screen. ;)

@ejay-ibm lol for my mirror and thanks for the suggestion. :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_closed_eyes:

@icripps please note that to be able to use Raspotify a Spotify Premium account is MANDATORY. ;)
