    • RE: Security bug - Wifi vs Wired on RPI

      @captsi
      Can you reconfigure the new router to the same settings you had in the old one.
      or update the pi to the new wifi?

    • RE: Made a birthday module

      @sdetweil
      I got it to work on another pi4 with only 4 mb ram.
      On the exact same setup
      Bookworm
      MM 2.30
      fully updated.
      It seems it has to be the only module besides some of the default ones.
      Which it covers up completely like the MPlayer does…
      Good thing I have an extra pi, I guess. The wifey likes it alot…
      I thought it would be cool add-on for my main mirror that is in the living room right above the TV. Gives us something to focus on during commercial’s…
      Updated your MMM-Config. LOOKING better every update…

      I tried your idea, I renamed my config.js to config.js2
      copied the config.js.sample to config.js
      added this to the new config.js

      /* Config Sample

       *
       * You can use environment variables using a `config.js.template` file instead of `config.js`
       * which will be converted to `config.js` while starting. For more information

      Still does not work.
      I removed and reinstalled
      Still nothing. Maybe it only works on MINT?

      @cgillinger
      Well I tried your idea about putting MMM-Birthday in the “fixed” area in Pages.
      I guess I can try your idea of using it without MMM-Pages, but it would be better if you could fix your module per sdetweil’s suggestion.

      Amazon shipping tracking would be a cool module. So you know when they are shipped and when to expect them. My “Alexa show” shows us every morning when a shipment is expected.

      I installed your module, it does nothing when its turn comes up in MMM-pages.
      I am running Bookworm, MM 2.30 on a Pi 4 8gb. How do I pick the messages?
      Not quite enough information to run this module.
      Please help with the setup…

      Wonder what he is using for his x and y start position in MMM-MPlayer.

      windowPosition: { x: 5, y: 5 },
      
      

      If I remember correctly.

    • RE: New module installer

      @sdetweil
      I removed it with rm -rf MMM-Config
      Then rebooted Pi
      Then reinstalled with:
      cd ~/MagicMirror/modules
      git clone https://github.com/sdetweil/MMM-Config
      cd MMM-Config
      npm install
      THAT DID NOT WORK.
      threw all kinds of errors in shift+ctrl+i
      So I went back to the
      cd MMM_Config module and ran
      git pull
      git checkout with_installer
      npm install
      rebooted the Pi
      Now it works.
      Why I do not know.
      But it does. I am going to try it out with MMM-MPlayer.
      Thanks for the great work…

      should i do the

      git checkout with_installer
      npm install

      did that and it says everything is up to date.
      I really hoped that would get it running.

    • RE: module unable to play mp3 file using omxplayer

      @sdetweil
      So, I run 20+ modules using MMM-Carousel, they all work well together.
      I added MMM-MPlayer and it took over, over rode carousel completely taking over MM. It would load about 10 seconds after pm2 restart mm.
      Then it just stayed up, full screen, looking like it was the only module running. I figured out that the other modules where being run behind MMM-MPlayer by making it only a 1/4 of the screen size.
      Does that make sense?

      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",
