@j-e-f-f It works on P0. My bad, had an extra space in the api key. Thank you.

@j-e-f-f Thanks for sharing.

Does it work on Pi Zero? In my case it doesn’t load. I just see FORCAST and then “Loading…” forever :astonished_face:
Using defaults, no changes made.

@sceetch I came to a conclusion to not use any modules which do not show any info on the screen. So, in this case, I use a python script at boot which monitors a PIR and executes an HDMI on/off cmd ;)

@sceetch I’ve, more or less, the same setup but the sh files stored in the MagicMirror folder.

@sdetweil making progress by tweaking a bit the line shown above to

chromium-browser --autoplay-policy=no-user-gesture-required --noerrdialogs --incognito --kiosk -start_maximized  --disable-features=AudioServiceSandbox --disable-infobars --app=...

However, streaming video on a P0 is not the best way to go so, I decided to just stream audio with this link http://stream-uk1.radioparadise.com/mp3-192. It’s much easer on buffering ;)

@sdetweil you mean in line 78?

chromium-browser -noerrdialogs -kiosk -start_maximized  --disable-features=AudioServiceSandbox --disable-infobars --app=...

the other way I get an error:

pi@magicmirror:~/MagicMirror $ chromium-browser --disable-features=AudioServiceSandbox
[1974:1974:0216/221501.872136:ERROR:browser_main_loop.cc(1432)] Unable to open X display.

@sdetweil Yes, I set swap to 1024. It’s slow but it works.
Thanks again!!

Hi,

I’m streaming video/music from a web but, for some reason, the audio doesn’t go through on a P0 it does on a P4 using the same config, however,

Youtube and audio tests pass on both pies.

Is there any reason for that?
TIA

@sdetweil Thank you! Finally got it going. I had to change the SD card.

Now I can finally replace my P4 with the P0. The P4, along with the display, are causing heat related problems so, P0 to the rescue.

Just FYI, I cannot hide the cursor and sudo apt-get install unclutter didn’t help.

@sdetweil I agree but which OS should I use? The lite one?
