    • RE: module unable to play mp3 file using omxplayer

      @myfingersarecold
      @evroom
      Do you use MMM-MPlayer with MMM-Carousel by chance?
      When I put this in my config.js MMM-MPlayer runs out of turn over all the others and does not stop. Even when, I remove MMM-MPlayer from the MMM-Carousel list of modules. Any Idea what I did wrong? I remove mplayer and MMM-MPlayer to get it to stop.

      		{
      			module: "MMM-MPlayer",
      				disabled: false,
      				position: "top_left",
      				header: "MPlayer",
      			config: {
      			  useTwoWindows: false,
      			  layout: "row",
      			  monitorAspect: 0,
      			  rotate: -1,
      			  windowSize: { width: 1900, height: 980 },
      			  windowPosition: { x: 5, y: 225 },
      			  streamInterval: 30000,
      				  streams: {
      						window1: [
      								"rtsp://admin:admin@192.168.1.32:554/live",
      						],
      						window2: [
      								"rtsp://admin:admin@192.168.1.35:554/live",
      						],
      				}
      			}
      		},

      @CharlesBarden
      That is some expensive free stuff. 48 bucks a month. Not something this community wants to know about I would guess. Spy ware is not always clean it usually has some kind of virus or key logger to steal your information for the person providing the spyware.

      Glad it works for you.
      I have no Idea where it came from. I would guess from someone on this forum.

    • Undefined / Loading

      MMM-DailyQuote I am getting Undefined
      MMM-quote-of-the-day stays at LOADING
      even after a removeing and reinstalling each of them, and doing the npm install, for each module. This started after update to 2.30 MM.
      I also installed request for all the modules having problems.
      I had to do the calendar fix also. All the other 20+ modules are working fine.
      I would appreciate any help or suggestions.
      Just noticed both are Quote modules, could they get their information from the same place? I am not smart enough to figure that out on my own…

      Ok mine doesn’t wait. I usually do a list of changes I have researched.
      So the complete restart of MM is ok for me.
      Right now trying to figure out a couple of modules that are not loading…

      @wswenson

      could I possibly get your full config for the MMM-Fuel module ???
      I had it running for a few years and then all the sudden it quit working.
      Mainly what are you using for provider: “${MMM_FUEL_PROVIDER}”,
      ???

      //*********************************************
      // Fuel prices module
      // Pages: 5
      // Location: https://github.com/fewieden/MMM-Fuel
      //*********************************************/
      {
      module: “MMM-Fuel”,
      position: “bottom_bar”,
      config: {
      provider: “${MMM_FUEL_PROVIDER}”,
      zip: “${ZIP_CODE}”,
      types: [“regular”, “midgrade”, “premium”],
      open: true,
      showDistance: false,
      showBrand: true,
      }
      },

             {
                  "name":"mm",
                  "script":"./mm.sh",
                  "cwd":"/home/pi",
                  "watch":[
                      "//home/pi/MagicMirror/css/custom.css",
                      "/home/pi/MagicMirror/config/config.js"
                  ],
      }
      
      

      I use a file called mm.json ,don’t remember where I got this info, but it still works great. I have it and a copy of the mm.sh in the /home/pi/ folder… the one your setup goes to when you do cd then enter.
      this is the code inside it.
      pm2 delete all that have to do with MagicMirror startup.
      Then do a pm2 start mm.json then pm2 save and PM2 saves it as mm.
      Now anytime I change something in config.js MagicMirror restarts.
      I wish I was smart enough with code to figure out how to get it to restart when I modify the custom.css too.

    • RE: Stop and Start MM on a schedule

      @sdetweil
      Not sure why but unclutter was not installed.
      It is now and the mouse pointer went away with a reboot.
      This is all a fresh install in December when I loaded bookworm and 2.29 Then reloaded all the modules using your backup/restore scripts… Sure makes things easier, for sure.
      Maybe you can add a check for unclutter in your script ???
      I thought it was on your script page with pm2 repair and the update scripts.
      But did not find it there, tonight. Could have been there, I have not been nearly as on my game since my son passed the end of October. 11 days after his 42nd Birthday. I am still a little in denial 69 days later… It will be strange driving 10 hrs to see my Grand kids and my Daughter in law without him there to talk to ect…
      Sorry for the rambling. Kind of my thing right now . Plus my dang Computer went down and took a week to get back up. I now have a working backup for it also…
      Time for me to get to bed. We are expecting 6" to a foot of snow over the next 24 hrs… Fun Fun Fun.

      I think adding the user pi /home/pi/pm2 stop all
      worked but I am using your update script right now.
      So not sure which one stopped MagicMirror.
      The dang mouse arrow is on the screen, so I will have to find that command to hide it now…

      @mumblebaj
      Not wanting to turn off the screen, simply because it is a pain to reach the power button to turn it back on, and no remote to get into setup of the TV it was a $40 used tv I bought. it works but I just leave it on and stop MM with a black screen and and the bar in black with bright green letters. It is very very dim. I am going to add the
      user pi and the path home/pi to the cron job and see what happens.

      Thanks for the links
      All of you.

      @sdetweil
      not sure yet if pm2 is working in cron?
      hoping the change will work.

    • Stop and Start MM on a schedule

      How do I get MM to Start and Stop on a schedule?
      I am running Bookworm 64bit and MM v2.29
      This is what used to work in buster 32bit and MM v2.15
      in my crontab -e

      # Turn off display Sunday - Thursday at 21h45
      15 21 * * 0-4 pm2 stop all
      # Turn off display Friday - Saturday at 23h45
      45 21 * * 5,6 pm2 stop all
      # Turn on screen Monday - Friday at 7h00
      00 07 * * 1-5 pm2 start mm
      # Turn on screen Saturday - Sunday at 8h00
      00 08 * * 6,0 pm2 start mm

      Crap on a Cracker,
      I was forgetting to put the login information in the url.
      DUH, thanks for the help it works great now…
      So if I want to show say 3 cameras 1 at a time I just add them to the window 1

                          "rtsp://xxxxx:xxxxx@192.168.1.40:554/stream1",
                          "rtsp://xxxxx:xxxxx@192.168.1.35:554/live",
                          "rtsp://xxxxx:xxxxx@192.168.1.32:554/live",
      

      and now it actually works great.
      Thank you so much for the module.
      I have been looking for this for a long time.
      I am so happy I can veiw my cameras again.
      RTSPStream went byb bye due to no one wanting to work with it anymore…
      Thank you again for this great moduel.
