Never mind. The images suddenly started loading. That’s very odd.

I fixed it “Magically” :-)

It is somewhat likely that the data the module is fetching was unavailable for a while. I’m glad it is working for you once again. You’re using two instances? That makes me twice as happy. I hope you’re enjoying it. :thumbsup:

All I know is that with the new MM update that came out on the 1st of October, this is the only way I have been able to get some modules to work, including after the MM update. Was suggested to me by Michael Teeuw when I first updated to v2.5.0.

@striiker - In the future, you may be able to get away with merely restarting the MagicMirror process. If you’re using pm2 with a default installation, it’s just pm2 restart MagicMirror.

Hi! Thank you for the suggestion however I have a cron job which restarts MagicMirror every 5 hours. I do this because of the persistent issue of having something in Magic Mirror crashing, causing it to stop refreshing and leaving me at a black screen. The only way to solve it is to manually reload or restart Magic Mirror. So, while I was experiencing this issue, the system had restarted MagicMirror several times. As mentioned by @justjim1220 , the solution was to reboot.

You’re welcome, mate! :thumbsup:

It looks like the issue is around what I was attempting to use to record audio. I was using a Logitech Webcam 9000 Pro, intending to use just the microphone for the project. I ran out and bought a cheap desktop microphone to test and my voice recording now plays back normally. I assume there may be some kind of global sample rate which needs to be set for the microphone in the webcam (or drivers). I decided to just buy a Sony Playstation Eye from Amazon as I have read several stories of success with it. I will close this as solved since the cause has been identified even if the solution was not. Thank you for your help!

Well, I determined the cause of the issue I think. I decided to remove everything prior to the line with “playback_handler” and pasted it from the template. I then manually entered the values under sound but this time, included two leading spaces to match the original config under sound where "input_device: “” had the spaces…
My config now looks like:

# See https://github.com/alexa-pi/AlexaPi/wiki/Audio-setup-&-debugging # to get a better idea of how to set things in here # Level of log output # default: INFO # set to DEBUG for verbose logging logging: INFO sound: # Name of your microphone device in PortAudio # leave empty for default input_device: "pulse" output: "pulse" output_device: "" playback_handler: "vlc"

Now I have new issues related to ALSA I think as there are errors related to this in the logs.

Hello again,
i still have the same problem with goggle calendar fullday entries.
For example an entry for 2 fulldays (01/19-01/20) will be:
ics data from the google calendar link:
…
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20190119
DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20190121

So the module shows
0_1547387176634_cfe1d622-ea2e-4194-aaf1-f781ddc5a45d-grafik.png

So i check all timezone / language etc. settings, in MM, modules section and raspi settings with no success.
Calendar views in google calendar webpage, android calendar apps and also outlook 365 are correct (2 days not 3).

my config

module: 'calendar', header: 'Familienkalender', position: 'bottom_left', config: { maximumEntries: 13, displaySymbol: false, maxTitleLength: 24, fade: true, fadePoint: 0.7, fullDayEventDateFormat: 'Do MM k:mm', timeFormat: 'absolute', dateFormat: 'Do MMM k:mm', urgency: 0, colored: false, coloredSymbolOnly: true, calendars: [ { url: 'https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/.../basic.ics' }, ], }

Thanks for any hint

I had a blank screen for the first time when I got home today. System had been running for a couple of weeks without an issue.

I’ve now added a cron job to restart every sunday…

Did you ever figure out how to use Spotify commands with Alexa on the Magic Mirror like the guy does in the video you are referencing?
