Fixed! Turns out (at least for me) “MMM-YT-SubCount” is broken. I noticed sub counts were not updating on this plugin, only updated on a MM restart. I swapped it out for MMM-YouTubeChannelStats which works perfectly, and Carousel started working normally after that. Hope this helps someone

@ianperrin Thank you for this!! I was going crazy with my MM, and swapping in your YouTube plugin fixed all kinds of problems I was having, that I have now figured out were because the older “MMM-YT-Stats” plugin is apparently broken.

@sdetweil Thanks for the quick response! I dont see any errors in the npm start sequence:

… and the browser developer console logs are free of errors as well. I see all the modules as Registered. hmmm.
For what it’s worth, I have tried both flavors of the MMM-Carousel plugin:
Original
Forked

Hey all, I’ve been a long-time MM user, and recently built a new Mirror using the “MagicMirror OS” image, on a RasPi 4 with the official 7" touchscreen. Works well!
I can’t figure out why “MMM-Carousel” doesn’t seem to be working for me any longer, and was wondering if maybe it is deprecated now? In the past, I’ve used it just for the “positional” mode, to move some things around on-screen from time to time, to prevent burn-in. My understanding is, once set up properly, any modules that are in the same position field are rotated through… so for example, duplicating my “clock” and “weather” modules, and in the second instance just switching their position, they will rotate through, via Carousel. Doesn’t seem to be working any longer, and I just have a duplicated, jumbled mess on my Mirror. Here’s my config, let me know if I’ve missed something, or if there’s detailed logging I’m overlooking that would point me in the right direction. Thanks! Slight redactions for privacy here:

I think what @potts-mike is implying is he got it to work with the prebuilt docker package, but not the newer version. If that’s correct, could you share your build version on the older docker image? Maybe we have an issue in the newer version preventing some browsers from working.

Hey all,
I’m new to MM, and loving it! I’m a heavy home automation enthusiast, so I quickly integrated this in to OpenHAB, and am running MM off a VM as a “server only” node, whitelisting my /24 network, and viewing the MM interface via full screen browser on some devices, tablets; works fantastic! My next step was to throw it on the built-in browser of my TV. It’s a new LG OLED, running WebOS, and it’s built-in browser is a Chrome variant. When trying to load my MM web interface, I see the title in the browser tab, “MagicMirror”, but the page itself never loads. I also notice back on my MM server, I don’t see the usual lines in the SSH session I see when other browsers connect to it.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for logs to evaluate for possible clues? I’d love to be able to use MM natively on my TV without even needing to stand up a rPi physically attached as a client, although I will likely end up that route if this proves impossible.

Thanks!
Joe
