I created a 3rd party module called MMM-Ring. It is for MM owners who have a ring device that whenever the doorbell is activated the video is streamed to the mirror. This works on my end with no issues. However, I have at least one person stating they get either no video or the video is frozen almost as if its just a snapshot. I had them check to make sure the stream data is being saved (.m3u8 and .ts files) and it is. I’m thinking this is a latency related issue tied to internet connectivity. I thought by making the -preset option on ffmpeg to ultra fast perhaps we could reduce down the size of the files generated for stream, but it only showed minor improvement on the end users side. Hoping someone with more experience in streaming could potentially add some guidance/assistance. https://github.com/DustinBryant/MMM-Ring/issues/1 Thanks in advance!

@sdetweil hi did you make a table then? where did you put your java code? i.e. which file?

@strawberry-3-141 and that uses a larger wrapper of python scripts called PythonShell

Hello, I’m trying to make this project ( https://www.instructables.com/id/Raspberry-Pi-Based-Living-Portrait-Player-Intro/ ) into a Module. The difficulty I have is that I’m using Simple-Swiper module to switch the pages of my mirror. Here is what I’m trying to do : the user can navigate on the different pages. when he reaches the last page , omx player is displayed with the video but doesn’t play the video. It just display the first image. This is what is done in the Living-Portrait-Player. if a move is detected, the video plays. if the user switch the page, omx is killed and disappears. I’m asking for your help because I have already started something but I can’t manage to make it work. I’m getting inspiration from multiple modules for this project. MMM-PIR which is the one I’m using as a main module and I’m modifying the code of that module. MMM-Podcast MMM-pages to find out what is the current page MMM-RTSPStream for methods related to omxplayer I wonder if I can use the callback method in MMM-PIR to run the script when the user arrives on the page. I haven’t tried that yet. And also, how to kill omx when the user changes the page. I’m also having difficulties to get the current page in the MM-PIR modules. I’m using this.sendNotification(“QUERY_PAGE_NUMBER”); in the MMM-PIR.js but seems like MMM-pages doesn’t receive the notification. I would be so thankful if someone could help me working on this.

@sdetweil Yes, you’re right. it was just an example. Anyway, it can be done like this; parseContent: function(text) { this.lastPatched = JSON.parse(text) this.updateDom() }, getDom: function() { var dom = document.createElement("div") dom.id = "TEST" if (this.lastPatched) { ... // draw patched data... } return dom }

@SirVer Data returned is definitely in a different format.

Hi to all my MagicMirror mates. :-) Is there a “Notification” type module that will let you display notices from my own website database? So objectively, to have something similar to the “Alert” module but customise it for my own alert that I want to place on the screen from my own website database?

Thanks, I’ll take a look.

@veejae I used MMM-Alexa

Newbie: How do i configure the code to hello world to display multiple lines of text?

@sdetweil omg… I’m so screwed up My ignorantness makes me cry…'ㅠ I don’t know why there was a mistake Thank you @sdetweil You’re awesome!

@Sean said in First module I'm developing, HTML won't render: @s1h4d0w iframe.setAttribute("src", this.config.url); Anyway, your url "https://open.spotify.com" will not be opened. Ah thank you! At least now I know what I was doing wrong, will be tinkering some more. Seems like I need to include /embed/ in the spotify url to get it to be accessible. And thank you @sdetweil, also a handy tip!

@bhepler thank you !!

well I got it to work. I ended up having to set the left border to 50% in the css.

@retroflex Also some modules don’t listen to fullscreen, if the DOM gets updated, it paints over any fullscreen region
