I need help with mmm-weatherchart:

https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/12204/black-screen-when-insert-https-github-com-paphko-mmm-weatherchart/3

Yes I do! But unfortunately I’m not very familiar with linux. I’ll give it a try. Thank you
EDIT: npm install del doesn’t work for both modules.

EDIT2: after the installation of “del”, the MM² come up again. But there is still no weatherchart.

EDIT3: cd ~/MagicMIrror && npm start dev
console issued the following text --> { [Error: EACCES: permission denied, open ‘/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/mmm-weatherchart/cache/map-1581788960498.png’]
errno: -13,
code: ‘EACCES’,
syscall: ‘open’,
path: ‘/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/mmm-weatherchart/cache/map-1581788960498.png’ }

I tried ‘sudo chmod -R 777 .’ inside the mmm-weatherchart module directory. But this also dosn’t help.

Hey folks,

I have updated my whole MM-SD-Card to a new “Raspbian Buster with desktop and recommended software” and also up to MM². I got everything to work except the weatherchart of paphko (https://github.com/paphko/mmm-weatherchart). If I put the module inside config.js the MM will not come up again. the monitor stays completely black (irrelevant to mention that I tried also the default module “code” ). By the way, its possible to kill the pm2 prcoess with CTRL+Q.

Then I tried the fork of that weatherchart-module from szech (https://github.com/szech/mmm-weatherchart). So I decided to rename the paphko-weatherchart-module-folder and to install the szech one at the correct location (/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/mmm-weatherchart/). First I tried the default module-code and (a little success ) the MM² came up again!

But without any weatherchart . So I decided to alter the module-config to my own settings, but nothing changed. Then I have tried some different locations for the weatherchart module, but nothing worked. The MM² shows all modules but not the desired weatherchart.

However, one thing was noticed, as I set the same location as the newsfeed module (region = bottom_bar) the newsfeed appeared two inches higher than before . So I guess something took that space below the newsfeed. I suspect that is the szech mmm-weatherchart, but a kind of invisible.

Thx in advance, I appreciate your help.

@mross22 Do you sell only this size (12"*24") ?
Are the edges polished ?

IMHO a visible transmittance of 11% is a little bit too less.
I got my mirror from myspiegel.de with a transmittance of 20%, so for all customers in Europe myspiegel.de will be the right choice if the weight doesn’t matter. Because these mirrors have a thickness of 8mm.
I bought there a mirror for 75€ at a size of 650x430mm.

@Atheose Oh sorry, I missed some posts too xD
I made the hole with a special driller for wood (I don’t know the english word, in german it’s called “Forstnerbohrer”)

These days I´m trying to solve the “HDMI-signal lost” problem of my monitor.

Each time, the RasPi disables his HDMI output after 60 seconds of no motion detection, the monitor shows up a big blue screen with “HDMI Signal lost” on it. Maybe it’s not a bug, it’s a feature of the monitor. Nethertheless it’s still a big bug of my MagicMirror.

What I’m looking for is a workaround to dim the brightness of the monitor or rather of the HDMI output.

Cool, thank you guys (PaulB & Jopyth) !

Hey PaulB, your Screen looks great, but I have a question about the news ticker.

Es sieht so aus als hättest du 2 verschiedene News-Feeds eingebunden, und das auch noch mit einer Überschrift.
Wie hast du das gemacht?

It seems you have implemented 2 different news feeds. How did you do this?

Kind regards from Lake Constance

Nice Mirror Bangee, where did you baught it? What is the thickness of these mirrors?

Kind regards from Germany

@MrH I’m sorry for the late reply. There’s a funny story behind xD I tried to switch off the whole mirror with a timeclock, but after I’ve seen that it needs only a negligible amount of power if the raspi turned off the HDMI, I used the backcover of the timeclock to build a case for the PIR sensor xD
