Okay here is the thing, I missed an hint in the readme of the module, which says it works only on

address: "localhost",

i had it set to:

address: "0.0.0.0",

to be able to use MMM-Remote-Control. Does anyone have an idea for me use both in parallel?

Edit:
Found the issue of the cam not working, but it disables MMM-Remote-Control.
Anyone an idea about that? Details in post #2.

Hi Guys,
i am a bit puzzled.
I have a RPi camera here, it works fine testing it with:

"raspistill -o image.jpg"

I installed the module MMM-MotionDetector and as described I did:

- Open /etc/modules-load.d/modules.conf
- Add bcm2835-v4l2 to the end of the file and save it.
- Reboot.

What I see is the following:

• The debug output on the screen is never updated.
• the display doesn’t go off.

My entry in the config.js:

           {
            module: "MMM-MotionDetector",
            position: "top_left",   // Optional. This can be any of the regions. Displays debug informations.
            config: {
                    captureIntervalTime: 1000,
                    scoreThreshold: 20,
                    timeout: 6000 // timeout in ms
                    }
            },

HW:
RPi 3B+ and the RPi Camera 1 Rev. 1.3

Any ideas or hints?

@sdetweil
morning,
well i didn’t do it in every single subfolder where a package.json is placed, since i didn’t expect this to be necessary.

I did:

• git pull
• in the module folder “npm install”
• npm install electron-rebuild
• ./node_modules/.bin/electron-rebuild

the result is the above.
Currently i solved it with external scripts running in system.d, but if you tell me i need to run “npm install” in each folder with a package.json, i would give it a try, just to report back.

I did the recommended above, but it’s still just nothing happening. Any further ideas?

I have a RCWL-0516 connected right now and a small python script which shows me it’s activity. but the module won’t shutdown the screen after minutes without motion (delay set to 10 secs).

Edit:
Maybe i should add:
I tried this with MMM-PIR -> interface not starting, error:

And MMM-PIR-Sensor is not reacting at all.

@Sean
Interesting, then I did a mistake somewhere else.
I will try this evening again. I guess i tried only quickly since the other plugins were not working already and I didn’t expect any success anymore

@Sean
is it?
when i tried it didn’t show me any european once. Maybe I did smth wrong I will try again.
Where do you get the symbols from, to have the correct once?

I tried for example “BMW.DE”

This is still limited to US stocks right?
Any chance to extend it to see also European stocks?
