@Gunwoody I gave up on it too. The git is not user friendly and there’s no step by step guide. Pit that together and I’ll come back.

This is what I get when I wake up and the monitor was supposed to go off at night and then turns back on in the morning. This happens every morning. Essentially, the monitor signal cuts but it never actually turns off or enters a low power state as it does when I actually shut down the Pi. This only happens when it’s overnight. When I do a trial off for a few minutes, it doesn’t do it. I think it might be the crappy old monitor, but I don’t know. Any thoughts?

Firstly, thanks for making such an awesome module!

However, I can get it to work with all of my modules except one… I can’t get it to work with MMM-Instagram. I have it set up just like all of my other modules, but this one just ignores the scheduler script and always runs, never following the code. Here is the module code in config.js:

		{
		      	module: 'MMM-Instagram',
		        position: 'top_right',
			classes: 'scheduler',
		        config: {
				module_schedule: [
					{from: '0 5 * * 1-5', to: '0 9 * * 1-5'},
					{from: '0 17 * * 1-5', to: '0 22 * * 1-5'},
					{from: '0 6 * * 6-7', to: '0 24 * * 6-7'}
				],
		                access_token: '//ACCESS_TOKEN//',
		                count: 200,
		                min_timestamp: 0,
		                animationSpeed: 2500,
                		updateInterval: 12000
			}
		},

any thoughts? here’s a picture of what it looks like when the scheduler is active: https://goo.gl/photos/K3S6HA7m61j5iSEe8

Is there a way to link the music directory to a thumb drive instead of having it in the modules folder on the SD card?

Could you please write a more detailed Readme file on how to install and how to make adjustments to MMM-Remote-Control? I’d like to do this for a display in my kitchen as well but I’m a NOOB and some of the stuff you mention just doesn’t make sense to me. Thanks.

@cowboysdude thanks for the help. This is actually what worked for me:

 body {
	cursor: help
 }
 
 .region.top.left {
	width: 375px
}

@cowboysdude could you post a copy of your custom.css file so I can see what you are talking about? Right now, my ‘body’ in the file is blank.

Ok. So, I’ve decided to give up on this. The Readme files are not user-friendly. There is no step-by-step guide for install. I originally got very excited about this and if I could see it working, I might still again. However, I’m no programmer; I’m just the end user. So, good luck and let me know if you ever put out a video demo of it working and create a more user-friendly step-by-step install guide.

Setting up the AWS IoT service… what support plan to choose? Basic is free right? I’m not paying $30 for developer. Is this even required?
