@AgP42 = you rock!!!
You made my evening Mate, can’t wait to test it!Thank you very much. Will keep you posted asap.

:smiling_face:
Here it is :
https://github.com/AgP42/MMM-SmartWebDisplayEnough screen for today, I will create the post for this new module on the coming days.
I tried to write the readme file as good as possible, but I will have to work on it again.Please test it and let me know if any bug…

thx, have a good “eye / brain” rest enjoy the weekend!

Review :
-
Using a list of several URL is working. Seems more “slow / laggy” than with iFrame-Ping and only one URL. Strange but OK.
-
URL rotation is working great. (maybe a bit slow because of reloading needs, but I guess than there is not much you can do for that?)
-
URL NEXT / PREV / PLAY / PAUSE is working like a charm. Which was my initial need, so perfect.
So all in all, a major and well managed update. Good job @AgP42 .
One thing :
Even by using the same size (% or px) parameter as in previous iFrame-Ping, the picture is much more smaller (tiny!!!) in this new module. Strange but nothing critical.
I’m displying youtube channels and “middle_center” parameter.
Nevertheless, when I increase the size of it, the centering is not working well. Indeed, the margin remains the same on left side, meaning the frame is off-centered on the right side of the screen.
Hope this can be fixed easily (I tried to look at it myself, .css, etc… but I’m not skilled enough). Maybe it’s something I’m doing wrong on my side…

@bolish, thanks for your very fast review ! I just upload an update that (should) solve the lagging issue (and on the same time this issue solved the problem of several instances !)
And your display issue was coming from the fact that I send on GitHub my css file with modifs for me, I update it too, so you should be able to get back your previous params

@AgP42
Centering frame is OK now.
Lagging seems to be much better.
But it seems that new issue is happening. I get constant (uncontrolled) change between status Playing and Stopped which is stopping the video.Strange.
-
I think it’s because of PIR Sensor “USER PRESENCE” notification!!!
(I don’t wnat any interaction between PIR and video), I only use PIR to turn screen ON / OFF.And this issue is not new since your morning correction…It’s new for me because I installed PIR this morning!!!

But why do you want your video to run if your screen is off ?
-
No you’re right I don’t.
I believe I understood the issue :
- It seems the PIR sensor I’m using is very sensitive and triggering “USER PRESENCE FALSE” very easily.
- I’m able to manage it in MMM-PIR sensor module thanks to the additional delay option which I put to 30 seconds which is preventing the screen to turn ON / OFF every 2 seconds.
But this is then triggering the issue I’m referring to above for MMM-SmartWebDisplay.
Does that makes sense? It’s the only explanation I found for now.
-
maybe you should let your module more generic that what you currently did.
If someone wants to STOP the video based on any other notification (like USER PRESENCE, false) he will always have the possibility to use MMM-NotificationTrigger to convert user presence to stop.Up to you.
If you’re not keen to update that point (which I could understand), I believe I can maybe modify things a little bit myself to manage it.
Maybe the modification should be done directly in MMM-PIR Sensor, which should only trigger PRESENCE FALSE once the additional delay is over and not before…
