Good to know, it fact I am very unsatisfied that I had to create a “bad fork” of RemoteControl, it is a dirty way to work and I don’t really like that… :face_with_cold_sweat:

Did you create a dedicated post for your fork and API ?

If RemoteControl is not maintained anymore as it seams to be, it can be a good idea to create a new “major fork” maintained with new functions as for example API for the possibility for other module to integrate menu easily !

The official MMM-RemoteControl has already 56 fork ! :face_screaming_in_fear:
It will be interesting to see if they contains interesting features and having a new major branch.

I didn’t look into your code deeply yet but I will do it and try to use it for my need instead of my own fork…

Anyway I don’t have enough time myself to invest into the creation of the NextRemoteControl, but if you do so I will definitively follow and support that great initiative !

This looks great, I’ll try it, but since you’re asking for other ideas, probably it will be a good one to make it compatible with MMM-TelegramBot, that way you can control your NEXT, PREV, etc from outside your local network using Telegram.
Enjoy

I didn’t know the MMM-TelegramBot, but I just check the documentation (incredibly well written ! :face_with_tears_of_joy: ) and it seams very easy to integrate, so I will add it on my coding to do list for the next version !

Thanks for the tip !

Question, so this could display a RTSP security camera feed?

[AgP42]

@swvalenti
No, it can display anything (or almost) that can be displayed on a web browser, so not an RTSP camera feed.
But for this you can use MMM-RTSPStream

@AgP42 Understood thanks for responding.

@Jopyth is still the maintainer of MMM-Remote-Control, and I’ve sent a PR to have my changes included in the official repo; if he’s anything like me, this is a hobby and efforts on it come and go as time and other projects allow. Feel free to use my fork for now and if/when they get merged, I’ll let you know. I’ve been trying to include several Issue fixes in my branch as well to wrap them all up into 1 update.

@AgP42 Could you explain how to “declare several instances” with this module? I tried to add it twice (once for bottom_left and once for bottom_middle, but it only shows the iFrame of bottom_left…

[Zwirbel]

Ok, I have found the error myself: the position “bottom_middle” does not exist, I have to use “bottom_center”. Now it works!
