MMM-EasyBack / always get the same youtube video at start of MM
-
Hello,
I am new to MagicMirror and its modules, finding all the possibilities offered so interesting.
But I have some trouble with MMM-EasyBack.
I would just like to have a background picture at start.
So for instance I put MyImage.jpg file in the images folder and tried this in the config.js, among many other trials:{
module: ‘MMM-EasyBack’,
position: ‘fullscreen_below’,
config: {
bgName: “MyImage.jpg”,
height: “1080px”,
width: “1920px”
}
},But I can’t see the background image at start.
Instead and whatever I put there : jpg image, video, Youtube ID, I always get a video from Youtube whose ID is :
“So3vH9FY2H4” when MagicMirror starts ?The one appearing in this line of the “Config.js entry and options” instructions:
youTubeID: “”, //“SkeNMoDlHUU”, // “So3vH9FY2H4”, // ID from any YouTube video.
It seems that my config lines are not taken into account ?
Could you tell me the reason, mistake causing this problem and how I could solve it ?
Thank you very much in advance for your help.

@alphanet
setyouTubeID
as null or empty.bgName: "MyImage.jpg", youTubeID: "", ...
In the source,
youTubeID
has the priority always, and unfortunately, onlyyouTubeID
has the default value, so you need to drop out that value explicitly. -
I’ve just got my background picture in MagicMirror.
Thank you very much MMRIZE for your reply and explanation !
Good to know that youTubeID has this priority and the way to drop out its default value.
Cordial greetings.
