    • RE: Rpi 4 and two monitors

      @sdetweil thanks.

      I found it had to get cheaper monitors that are both slim and gave small bezel. Not sure how will look with about 3-4cm of bezel in the middle.

    • Rpi 4 and two monitors

      Has anyone tried building a MM with an rpi4 and attaching two monitors?

      I wanted two hook up to 21.5 inch monitors as it would be cheaper than getting a slim 30+ inch monitor.

    • RE: updated installer script available for testing

      Thanks @sdetweil , after a couple of reboots this is now working as expected. Not sure what the issue was, I will have to keep an eye on it. Thanks for the link on swap space, I will also look in that direction if I have any more of the same issues.

    • RE: updated installer script available for testing

      Hey sam (@sdetweil ),

      Thanks for this, made my life a lot easier.

      So, I just did a new build with Buster on a RPI Zero W. All looked good and I have configured mm2 to start on reboot of the Pi. I am start/stop/restart and check the status of mm2 and is looks to be working, the mm2 logs are also good with no error logs.

      The problem I am facing is that the magicMirror page via chromium seems to try and load (white screen which changes to a pure black screen) however seems to fail/crash and go back to the Raspbian desktop.

      This happens when I reboot the pi and also when I manually try to start/restart the mm2 service.

      Anything you think I am missing?

      Thanks

    • RE: MMM-GooglePhotos

      Hey @Sean ,

      Thank you for your quite reply, you are correct the token.josn file was missing. Looks like I needed to run ‘node auth_and_test’ as sudo for this file to be created. Once I did this the photos started to appear :) just need to configure the size and position now.

      Thank you again.

      Regards

      Nathan

    • RE: MMM-GooglePhotos

      Hi Sean,

      Firstly thank you for this, it has great potential and is something that has been missing for such a long time compared to the alternative dakboard that I was forced to use to get photos displayed.

      I have an issue though, I believe I have been through the steps correctly but can not get it to work. When I reboot my RPI2 it looks like the ‘auth_and_test.js’ is ran and this brings up the browser with googlin login and if I follow this through it gives me the code which is the same experience I have when running ‘auth_and_test.js’ in order to get the album id.

      This then repeats itself every 5mins or so…

      I have added the album id in the config.js but it does not seem to matter if I put a correct or incorrect one in here the same happens. It does not look like it trys to put images on the desktop so I don’t think the module is getting that far.

      Any idea what I have done wrong?

      Thanks

      Nathan

    • RE: Wunderlist, blank screen when Wunderlist module is added to config.js

      @Kimzer Thanks for your quick replies. I deleted the Wunderlist and the enhanced Wunderlist folders/modules. Then created the Wunderlist folder again, then did npm install and this seems to have resolved the issue, must of been a problem with the Module.

      @Kimzer Hmmmm, maybe. From the times I have missed/messed up config if normally comes up with something like …missing config.js

    • Wunderlist, blank screen when Wunderlist module is added to config.js

      Hey,

      I am having issues with the ‘MMM-Wunderlist’ and the enhanced version, when I add this in as a modules, then reboot the rpi. All I get is a blank screen? When I ssh in and then remove the module from the config.js, reboot then everything is back again. It does not seem to matter what I add the module config I get the same results.

      Thanks

      Nathan
