@abuislam Do you have a link to MMM-TextEffect, i cant find the module anywhere on Github or mentioned anywhere else on this forum?

Thanks!

@Niggich The readme tells you how to do this:
https://github.com/Isaac-the-Man/MMM-nixie-clock

option | description | default
size | ‘mini’, ‘small’, ‘medium’, or ‘large’. | ‘large’

Just to update - dont know whats changed but the module is working ok now! Thanks!

Ok, thanks very much for helping out.

One final thing that i thought of was that i’m using the wired ethernet interface on the Pi, not the WiFi. Not sure if this matters, just thought it a bit odd that i did not get any data displayed in the Network tab?

i dont see any entries in the network tab at all, i have stopped and restarted the record and hit the button on the doorbell but nothing apears in the log.

@DustinBryant yes i did, a few times and still the same. The video files are still appearing after the log says stream has ended

its still the same im afraid:

These are the files in the public folder once the doorbell is pressed. Note these files only appear once the log shows “Front door video stram has ended”

-rw-r–r-- 1 pi pi 0 Oct 31 20:10 stream0.ts
-rw-r–r-- 1 pi pi 117 Oct 31 20:10 stream.m3u8

Regardless of the time set for “ringMinutesToStreamVideo” the log always shows a run of less than 30 seconds:

MMM-Ring at (10/31/2019, 8:09:42 PM): Front Door had its doorbell rung! Preparing video stream.
MMM-Ring at (10/31/2019, 8:10:03 PM): Front Door video stream has ended
timeout hit

Hi, i have tried what you have suggested and a .ts file does get dropped in, I have tried to play it but it does not play, the file size is only 117 bytes.

I have tried this on a complete fresh system, running Raspbian Buster, with the current MM build, also this is the only module i have active in the config file. No video at all is shown on the mirror! help!

@DustinBryant Thanks for all of the suggestions, I have followed this and now do not get any errors but i see no video on the mirror!

Anything else i can check?

@DustinBryant This is what the mm log shows:

MMM-Ring at (10/10/2019, 20:59:55): Found 1 location(s) with 1 camera(s).
MMM-Ring at (10/10/2019, 20:59:55): Location Home has the following 1 camera(s):

MMM-Ring at (10/10/2019, 20:59:55): Actively listening for doorbell presses

Then i press the doorbell:

MMM-Ring at (10/10/2019, 21:00:04): Front Door had its doorbell rung! Preparing video stream.
MMM-Ring at (10/10/2019, 21:00:26): Front Door video stream has ended

If you think this really is an issue, please open an issue on GitHub: https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/issues

No video is displayed on the MagicMirror.

Also I have specificed a 2 minute stream time in the config.js but as shown above, the video only shows it runs for 30 seconds…

config.js:

            {
                    module: "MMM-Ring",
                    position: "top_left",
                    config: {
                            ringEmail: "EMAIL",
                            ringPwd: "PASSWORD",
                            ringMinutesToStreamVideo: "2", //default is 2 mins
                            ringVideoWidth: "600" //default is 600px
                    }
            },

@DustinBryant Thanks, i have installed but still not working. I get the files in the public folder but still no video

Hi I cant get the module to work - it comes up with the following error in the logs, can you advise?

@cowboysdude This is the one I used:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Car-Dash-Flush-Mount-Dual-USB-1m-Male-to-Female-Extension-Cable-Lead-Panel-MA950-/272413643903?hash=item3f6d1e547f:g:rUkAAOSwDmBY4CTs

@strawberry-3.141 Thanks for replying…

I tried npm install in the MMM-WunderGround directory but it failed (I don’t think there are any dependencies that require installing?)
I checked the path and the directory was there however it was named ‘MMM-Wunderground’ and in the config.js I call ‘MMM-WunderGround’. I changed the directory name to ‘MMM-WunderGround’ and the module now loads!

Funnily enough before this I tried changing the config.js file to match the directory name and this did not work, I had to change the directory name to add the capital letter to the U.

Thanks all for your help, finally sorted!

Hi Thanks for the reply - I have tried your config and am still having the same result, the module does not show up at all.
I am not seeing any error either regarding the config.js file…
This leads me to believe it must be something to do with the api key. Are you able to talk through exactly what to do to set the key up? I think I have done it right (see screenshot in first post) but may be missing something… How many characters is your api key?

I was hoping someone could help me…
I have been trying to setup MMM-WunderGround on my mirror but have been unsuccessful so far.

Here is my config:

{
	module: 'MMM-WunderGround', // Just for forecast w/css entry
	position: 'top_right',
	config: {
		apikey: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx', // apikey from weatherunderground
		pws: 'pws:IPORTSMO30', // location
		currentweather: 0,
		coloricon: true,
		hourly: '1',
		fctext: '1',
		fcdaycount: "10",
		fcdaystart: "0",
		hourlyinterval: "2",
		hourlycount: "1",
		animationSpeed: 5000,
		alerttime: 10000,
		alerttruncatestring: "english:",
		roundTmpDecs: 0,
		UseCardinals: 1,
		layout: "vertical",
		windunits: "mph",
		sysstat: "0"
		}
},

Everything else in my config file is booting properly and working fine.
Regarding the API key - from the weather underground page I have subscribed to the anvil plan and have got my ‘API Key’ which is a 16 alphanumerical code and this is what I am using, is this correct? See screenshot below:

When booting the logs show no errors and do not refer to the MMM-WunderGround module at all. The only other thing I can think of is I am still using the default ‘current weather’ and ‘weather forecast’ modules in my config.js - could it be that these are conflicting with the MMM-WunderGround module? EDIT: I have commented out these two modules and tried again - still the same so I don’t think these are the problem.

I have tried everything previously mentioned in the recent weather underground post (https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/2292/problem-with-weather-underground-forecast/18).

Can anyone assist please? I have run out of ideas.

This has fixed my problem - thanks very much!

So since the update I have had nothing but problems, first the black screen on boot (I managed to get rid of this somehow by running ‘git pull && npm install’ for a second time…

Now however when I boot MM all of the modules load except the Calendar (default module).

When I boot MM the following log is shown:

I have downloaded the master file from git and replaced the modules/default on the pi with these but no change.

I know the calendar url is fine as when I access via web browser it downloads the .ics

Can anyone help at all?
