@mykle1

LOL!!! I seen your answer, I was trying to re-iterate! Like agreeing with you!

@mykle1

Haha, I need to pay closer attention…:smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

very cool.
question… can you get this to work using touch screen?
like the buttons you show on the screen, control them using touch instead of mouse pointer or keyboard?

@albinolan

You might also look at these modules:

https://github.com/Txukie/MMM-LCDControl

https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/735/remote-control-shutdown-configure-and-update-your-magicmirror/231

Sounds like they may have the LCD control you are possibly looking for…

@albinolan

I’d think there should be a way to control the dimming of the display. kind of like using night mode on a smartphone. Not sure how one would get it to work off the top of my head, but I would think it would be the cheapest and probably easiest way to go about it.

@maxbachmann

Sorry, still kinda new with this, that is beyond my scope!

@mykle1
@lavolp3

Control + R is much faster than restart mm

@maxbachmann

If you look in your css folder you will find the main.css file. Open it and you will find all the regions. Compare them to where you have you modules set and it should help you figure it out.

@awephuk said in MM not loading on startup or manually:

cd /home/pi/MagicMirror
DISPLAY=:0 npm start

try this

cd MagicMirror
DISPLAY=: npm start

@mykle1

Weird, I didn’t see your answer until after I submitted mine!

@brenj said in Modules again.....:

timeFormat: int 60

Missing comma at the end of this line…

can someone please tell me what this error means and possibly how to fix it???

Any help is MUCH APPRECIATED!!!

@cowboysdude

yeah, I have that as well.

My playlist has close to 1600 videos in it.
To link it to the mirror or anywhere else other than playing on YT itself… There is a stack limit of 200 videos, AND, there isn’t a shuffle or randomizer available with the YouTube API documentation.

I was able to get one to work in HTML, My trouble from here on is getting to convert into a working MM module…

@mykle1 Thanks, but the PM was regarding a completely different task, One that I’m trying actually create.

A playlist shuffle and random for YouTube … :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

I have been working with this for 3 hours! I can’t get it to marquee using any type of code, I’ve tried several!!!

@cyberphox kind of what I was getting at…that user authentication isn’t terribly necessary…:smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

@albertlwj liquid nails… not only waterproof, but a great sealer and will hold just about anything if you let it cure long enough. I always double or triple what the directions say… ie: if says to allow to cure for 24 hours, I would most likely give it 72 hours. Also a good seal has no gaps in the glue strip. And most likely, the heat of the monitor will keep the mirror from fogging over.

not yet, but was getting ready to…:smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

you could probably add a marquee script to the current newsfeed code…
