@ruffneck2 SO clearly something went wrong with the auth request. There is no detail in the screenshot you provided.
in node_helper.js can you uncomment this line to get the error body? should be line no 193. You may want to add it after the else as well.
If this forum is unable to assist then you may want to open an issue in the Gitlab page for the module.

Thank you for your suggestion. I will give it another try at the weekend. I have already tried it on Github, with similar success ;)

Hi,
I have had my MM mounted on the wall since 2018.
I use an RPi 2B+ on which Raspian Stretch is installed.
Because I had significant problems after an update, I stopped at version 2.5.0 and have not updated since then. That’s ok for me.
Now, in January, I installed the MMM-Remote-Control module and noticed that my mirror always freezes after a certain time.
The instructions on github say something generic about the optional Realtek 8192 WiFi dongle as well as something about “For RPi 3 (Raspbian Stretch)”, but for RPi 3.
Could someone please help me and tell me which command is valid for me now? Either only the part for the dongle or the part for the RPi 3? Unfortunately, nothing is working at the moment due to misconfiguration and I have to take the mirror off the wall again, so I’d rather ask in advance.

@sdetweil
I removed the MMM-Remote-Control folder with newest Release version and downloaded and installed an older Release version (1.1.5) and this one is working on my old mirror which is totally fine for me :)
I’m happy now, so thank you for your efforts and support on this topic. :flexed_biceps_light_skin_tone:

Hello dear fellow MagicMirror builders, after lots of trials and errors, I have finally finished my MagicMirror.

I wanted to build a simple mirror that blends harmoniously into our interior and is also accepted by my family.
The mirror should therefore have a certain size, but but should not protrude too far into the room.
That’s why I have choosen a reasonably UltraSlim TV and a slim metal frame.
I´m using a Samsung Smart TV and a Raspberry Pi 2 Model B assembled onto a metal frame.
On the Pi the Operating system Raspberry Stretch from April 2019 and MagicMirror 2.7.1 is installed.
Additionally I have installed an On/Off switch to the metal frame.
The whole assy of frame and TV I have mounted to the wall via mounting rails and has a total depth of 52 mm and a weight of 25 kilogram.

The cost of the whole build (including frame, glass and electronics) was a little more than EUR 200.

Mirror Glass – MIRROPANE CHROME SPY 80cm L x 60cm W @ 4mm thickness = EUR 90

Since I have a 4-fold multiple socket integrated, of course the mirror can still be extended.
Maybe in the future even LED light and face recognition will be added, but at the moment I would like to admire my little project for a while.

So finally of course I would like to thank Michael Teeuw, the creator of the MagicMirror, the different developers of the various modules and of course this community, who made this project possible.

@ruffneck2 i don’t know if this change will make it in. I just see that someone submitted the change to be considered.
