Hello,

I’m trying to get this two modules working. Both are installed an the following code are in my config.js:

        {
        module: 'MMM-Button',
        config: {
            // See 'Configuration options' for more information.
        }
    	},
    	{
        module: 'MMM-Podcast',
        position: 'middle_center',	
        config: {
            feedurl: 'http://www.tagesschau.de/export/video-podcast/webxl/tagesschau-in-100-sekunden/'
            
        }
    	},

I connected my button like this:
https://developer.microsoft.com/de-de/windows/iot/win10/samples/PushButton.htm

The problem is, I only see on my MagicMirror in the middle center “MMM-Podcast - module 9 MMM-Podcat”. After pressing the button,
nothing happens.

Could anybody show me his config.js for example?

Best regards

Its working, my fault, I connected the button wrong

But how to hide the text “MMM-Podcast - module 9 MMM-Podcat”?

EDIT: Also solved. I dont have to set a position for the podcast module.

Same here

EDIT:

Okay in my case …

omxplayer --win 0,0,640,480 /opt/vc/src/hello_pi/hello_video/test.h264

… does not open the omxplayer on my Mirror.

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ omxplayer --win 0,0,640,480 /opt/vc/src/hello_pi/hello_video/test.h264

@sdetweil thats it. Thank you!

dicker182

same here, I just did an

git stash
git pull

in the Magicmirrir directory

I have the same problem. Also did everything from this thread.

@All, sry for the lait answer, I followed all your guides, but I can´t solve the problem. I have to use another power circuit.

@cruunnerr, same here, you have to restart your pi. After the video starts for the first time, the bug is there. You can only reload mm when the video never starts in the same session.

dicker182

Yes it seems it is on the same circuit. The button is pressed when the light goes on and when the light goes off… unbelievable

dicker182

Okay thanks, the script now starting as user pi.
Other question, has my button.py script to run in a loop?

EDIT: Okay the message “button pressed” are coming when I turn the floor lights on 0o?

dicker182

Okay, now I have a script button.py which starts with rc.local after boot.

import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
import time

GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)
GPIO.setup(9, GPIO.IN, pull_up_down=GPIO.PUD_DOWN)
GPIO.cleanup()           # clean up GPIO on normal exit

But it´s also not working. Did I miss something?
