Yeah, I know this is fluffy.
There is an integration into Home Assistant that uses the Remote Control API.
If I activate the ScreenCast module, the integration doesn't work.
I'm posting it here, but I will of course also post it in the Home Assistant Integration.
Maybe you can explain me how this might happen, so I can explain it to the developer of the integration?

@fribse Hmm my intial guess would be a port collision or something similar. Do you have any logs of this? and what exactly are you using for Home Assistant and Remote Control? I might have some time to dig into this.

Odd, Remote control uses port 8080, where can I find some extra log files?

I just tested some more together with the @sindrebroch that does the Home Assistant Integration.
Weird results.

I then send requests to RemoteControl API:
/api/test:
{"success":true}
/api/mmUpdateAvailable
{"success":true,"query":{"data":"mmUpdateAvailable"},"result":false}
/api/monitor/status
{"success":true,"monitor":"off"}
/api/brightness
{"success":true,"query":{"data":"brightness"},"result":100}

RemoteControl API:
/api/test:
"success":false,"status":"error","reason":"unknown","info":"Not initialized, have you opened or refreshed your browser since the last time you started MagicMirror?"}
/api/mmUpdateAvailable
{"success":true,"query":{"data":"mmUpdateAvailable"},"result":false}
/api/monitor/status
{"success":true,"monitor":"on"}
/api/brightness
{"success":false,"status":"error","reason":"unknown","info":"Not initialized, have you opened or refreshed your browser since the last time you started MagicMirror?"}

Hmmm? So both the module scheduler and the remote-control is somehow affected.
I've done a reinstall of MagicMirror, so the only thing left is the Raspberry OS I guess.

I just did a complete reinstall on a new SD card. Raspbian Buster, monitor in portrait mode (display_rotate=1).
I've tried to install MagicMirror with both sdetwell's script, and manually, the same thing happens.
I did a basic MagicMirror install, added the RemoteControl module with API key.
As soon as I added ScreenCast it lost the ability to do proper API commands.
I tried adding a specific port statement as well to the ScreenCast, just to make sure nothing was coliding, still no joy.
