Re: MMM-Pir bugsounet doesn't switch the screen off!

Hello,

My screen sometimes stays black after the PIR detected motion. The backlight of the screen is on but no content is shown. I have to restart the mirror to get it back to working. How can I solve this?

@sdetweil Sir, you did it once again. I tried editing the alpha channel from “0.2” to “0,5” and all worked out.

Thank you very much for all the support and your patience since the beginning of my MM journey! :)

@sdetweil i now reinstalled the whole mirror and still cannot get it to work on the mirror. The Dev tools on the mirror are exactly the same as on the windows laptop.

@sdetweil I am currently out of ideas.
My time zone settings are correct, the displayed time is correct.
With the help of ChatGPT I tried al kind of things like adding classes to the module js file. but to no avail. I am currently on a fresh installed module and where your first tip got it working it is now not working at all. (Only works on my laptop on localhost:8080)

@sdetweil

This is what I see when I check at my desktop browser.
Would it be any different on the raspberry?

@sdetweil my raspberry 3 a+ is a bit too slow to navigate through the dev screen. That’s why I checked via my laptop’s chrome browser. But there is the background of today highlighted as expected.

Side question: If I replace my rb 3a+ with a rb 4. Can I get everything working as it is now by just changing the sd card?

@sdetweil i tried that multiple times

@sdetweil today I noticed that I do see the highlighted background when I open Magic Mirror on my phone’s web browser, but not on the mirror itself. A bit strange isn’t it?

@mumblebaj YES! Got it working! Thank you very very much

@sdetweil I did so and it worked the first day(s) but today and Yesterday the background was gone. I checked the custom css and all lines are still present. Did I do something wrong? Or does it have to do something with the weekend days?

@sdetweil i did so but no response yet

@sdetweil Thank you for your help so far

@sdetweil how can I resolve that?

@sdetweil That gives me this:

xavier@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-FastNotes $ python3 FastNotes.py --host 192.168.178.30 --port 5000 --debug

@sdetweil Yes that works to see the MM on my desktop web browser.
Only the FastNotes WebUI does not load

@sdetweil This is what I get

@sdetweil

So I try to access the Web UI with: 192.168.178.30:5000

@sdetweil I have

host: “192.168.78.30”, // address of raspberry pi in local network, need for access to WEB UI
port: 5000, // port on host where UI will be accessible via web browser

Where “192.168.178.30” is the ip adress of my raspberry

@sdetweil Yes, current setup in config is

"address": "0.0.0.0",
"ipWhitelist": [],
"locale": "en-US",
"logLevel": [
	"INFO",
	"LOG",
	"WARN",
	"ERROR"
],
