@sdetweil Thank you! This solved the issue!

Hey guys!

I’m using MMM-Spotify module, and mostly it works fine.
The problem starts to appear after some time I had listened to spotify,
the information on the screen stops updating.

In the middle of some song it just ‘frezzes’ and dont update information anymore.
I see the same previous songs information , even the time the song played stops at the time it froze. When I dont listen spotify on any device, it still shows the same information and doenst go back to Spotify logo.

Anyone else had this isse, or maybe has solution/points where to look at?

Only way currently to make it work again is restarting MM.

Thanks for any input in advance :)

Hello everyone!

Anyone else having problems with this module after updating?

I get this error when starting up MagicMirror:

Maybe module is working fine for others after update?

Any ideas or help would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance.

Hey @jamesarm !
Did you look at debug mode? Maybe it has some information if module starts/stops?
Did you add classes to modules ?

@sdetweil
Thank you very much!
Exactly what I needed :)

@sdetweil thank you for response!
Maybe I didn’t write the problem clearly enough. I understand the main function of this module and it’s working fine. The thing is, there is a a notification which says “hello, ‘some_name’” . And I would like to map ‘šōmē_nāmē’ to show instead of ‘some_name’.

This is one of this modules configuration field with its comment :

// Dictionary for person name mapping in welcome message
// Allows for displaying name with complex character sets in welcome message 
 //e.g. jerome => Jérôme, hideyuki => 英之
usernameDisplayMapping: null,

The thing is , I don’t full understand how and where I need to insert those names.
Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone!
My problem probably is just because of my low knowledge of programming.

In this module there is a property called usernameDisplayMapping and I haven’t been able to figure it out how to use it/ type in it to get it to work.

Maybe someone can help me how would this parameter should look if I would insert some random name mapping like : jerome -> Jérôme, John -> Jōhn, Caytlin -> Cāytlīņ or anything like that?
