    • RE: mmm remote control

      @tommyk sorry. Dang if I know. Maybe just examples of how it could be.

      127.0.0.1 is the address for localhost
      192.168. Is a typical default network address setup

      I leave it empty, cause I don’t want to force my devices to fixed addresses (dont want the mgmt job)

    • RE: electronSwitches in config.js — am I reading the code wrong, or does it not actually work?

      @rkorell don’t touch your old card. Backup, Make new,
      Install MagicMirror, restore, test. Fallback to old card if you need to

      As safe as it gets

    • RE: Electron Error

      @nobbie35 scripts are here, mentioned in MagicMirror install doc
      https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts

      Backup/restore should work if you can run it from the nas command line (it’s all bash) and if git is there you could push to a repo of yours

      https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror-backup-restore

      This takes optional parm’s for the folder name of MagicMirror and the place to put the backup

      @rkorell

      its already 2.36 now… we put out a sep release to fix a bunch of things.
      2.37 is july 1

      copy the MM folder to save so you don’t lose anything

      use my upgrade script

      my backup/restore will move things too

      no functional 3rd party module content changed,
      modules didn’t move location
      just location of default modules (you shouldn’t care)
      and USER files, config.js, custom.css now in ONE folder instead of 2

      I have to fix my MMM-Config for the electronSwitches structure change(before july 1), already fixed for css move and default modules move.

      must you may ALSO need new OS to support new nodejs and electron…

      my backup/restore will help put the old config on new system after new MM install

      backup existing, store on github., versioned too, not only copy on sd card.
      make new sd card
      boot
      install MM, make sure it runs
      restore (from github) (it reinstalls modules, this is NOT a binary backup, just text very small)
      restart MM

    • RE: electronSwitches in config.js — am I reading the code wrong, or does it not actually work?

      @rkorell so much fun!!! you can code it to maybe fix your problem.

      net, the new electronSwitches is still an array , but now contains an object for the key:value pair, or just a string for those switches that are just single value

      [ 
         "string"
         { "id":"value"].,
         ...
      ]
      

      and the
      appendSwitch can be either single string

      commandLine.appendSwitch(sw);
      

      or two part,

      commandLine.appendSwitch(name, String(value));
      

      code here in a sep function

    • RE: mmm remote control

      @tommyk by default, MM does not allow anything outside to connect…
      this is from the address , and ipWhitelist settings in config.js

      to allow outside access(phone, tablet, laptop) , change those values to these, and restart MM

      address:"0.0.0.0",
      ipWhitelist:[],
      

      later you can tune the ipWhitelist to only allow your phone if you need to limit access from your local network.

      the 0.0.0.0 for address means, if you have ethernet and wifi, listen on ALL adapters for incoming traffic…
      you could use ONE of them by specifying the exact network adapter address instead of 0.0.0.0 , but usually this leads to unexpected confusion later… (I know I changed from localhost, it why cant I connect from X…)

    • RE: Electron Error

      @nobbie35 if you have an older system, even if it’s not running completely you can use my backup/restore
      Install new MagicMirror w my script
      Run restore to put back modules , config and css if it was in custom.css

      Best thing to do for things in main.css

      Do a git diff main.css

      It will show you all the changes and adds

    • RE: Electron Error

      @nobbie35 main.css is ours, we will write over it every release. All user css goes in custom.css
      Now located in the config folder

      If you used my backup restore it can help you move versions and systems, backup here restore there

      My installer creates custom.css if it doesn’t exist
      My updater would have moved things around for you

    • RE: MMM-Reddit 403 error

      @kasperb generally, this link of error requires the module developer to make a fix, if possible.
      So you need to open an issue on the module GitHub page yo engage the author

    • RE: MMM-RTSPStream no longer working

      @dangerousden well that’s some good news. Amazing how many times we have to get used to rebooting something these days

      I’m in the 50 year IT range from mainframes to microprocessors and everything in between.

      Sadly I know nothing about RTSP other than other people also having trouble with the latest os releases.

    • RE: Electron Error

      @nobbie35 said: node 22, awesome
      hmmm this says wayland

       ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep -i -e xway -e labwc 
      

      can you show its output

      note we moved (user controlled files) like css to the config folder
      IF you used my installer script, it would have moved everything other than the MM owned css contents

      please don’t edit main.css

      all USER css goes in custom.css
      that way when we install updates, we dont overwrite your stuff…
