MMM-AssistantMk2 doesn't play videos

[arjunalwe]

In fact, it doesn't do anything other than show me a link.

I'm using the default config file and that's it. I've also added the words with-MMM-Youtube.js to the recipe section of the MMM-AssistantMk2 part in the config file. Here they are:

      module: "MMM-AssistantMk2",
      position: "fullscreen_above",
      config: {
        ui: "Fullscreen",
        assistantConfig: {
          latitude: 43.770978,
          longitude: -79.344643,
        },
        micConfig: { // put there configuration generated by auto-installer
          recorder: "arecord",
          device: "plughw:1",
        },
        recipes: [ "with-MMM-Hotword.js", "with-MMM-YouTube.js"],
        profiles: {
          "default": {
        profileFile: "default.json",
        lang: "en-US"
        }
          },
       },
    },

    {
      module: "MMM-YouTube",
      position: "top_right",
    },

I've also monitored both the terminal and the npm start dev stream and nothing seems to be out of the ordinary

So, tell me what you did and what you expected and what you got.

From my understanding, when I asked my Google Assistant to play something on YouTube, it was supposed to play the thing I asked it to. I asked it to play something by saying "Play x on YouTube" or "YouTube play x". However, neither variation worked and the Google Assistant simply froze until it timed out and deactivated

[arjunalwe]

Sorry I took so long to respond btw

[eouia]

On SDK level YouTube feature is not supported. Instead, We've added some trick. When you search some terms like "Michael Jackson Thriller", and the search result(screenOutput response) has a link of youtube, The link will be transferred to MMM-YouTube module than will be played if playable.

[arjunalwe]

Ok it shows me the link now but MMM-YouTube doesn't play it

[eouia]

There could be some reason which could not be playable. Most cases will be Error:150, Not allowed to play outside of Youtube. Anyway, you'd better show me the backend and frontend log to know what happened.

This is the terminal output after I said "Thriller":

The output for this was a link to the video, however, nothing played.

The window that opens after you type npm start dev showed nothing remotely related to MMM-YouTube either

Set debug:true on AMK2. It will show more detailed log.

[eouia]

And Front log will be needed. I think your issue lies on Front end not back end.

[arjunalwe]

How do I access that?

[arjunalwe]

Nvm it works

[arjunalwe]

It was just a stupid typo in the recipe config

[arjunalwe]

Sorry I wasted your time
