MMM-NewsFeedTicker

[mumblebaj]

@justjim1220 Have you ever managed to get this resolved? I a not getting the image from my 1 local news feed pulled in and not sure what else I can do to see if I can get it to come through.
The news feed is from: http://feeds.news24.com/articles/news24/SouthAfrica/rss
and the image is supposed to come from: https://scripts.24.co.za/img/sites/news24.png

@mrSnatz

I have never used a Tinkerboard, so no thoughts regarding the use of one. Apologies!

@mrSnatz
I didn’t test this module on ATB, but ATB is definitely stronger than RPI.
However apart from this module, you have more option nowadays. I think you can consider RK3399 or S922X. I especially recommend Jetson Nano at this moment for powerful GPU. RockPi 4 or NanoPi M4 is also good for overall performance.

Please update your MMM-NewsFeedTicker and run it to see if it is working the way you are wanting.

git pull

Thanks!

I run MM on a dedicated Intel NUC and I still occure this stuttering you are talking about. I noticed that the suttering appears when “MMM-ImagesPhotos” loads new pictures in slideshow mode. I was able to reduce this stuttering by reducing the size of the images…

What I try to say “the power” does not help. I think the code is sometimes “sloppy”. Not that I could do anything better in terms of coding but just my 2cent…

Hi guys! I know that this topic is quite old, but I am trying to add this module to my magic mirror unsuccesfully.
I added in the “config.js” file the module but it doesn’t show up. Any ideas on what i’ve done wrong?

modules: [
	{
		module: "alert",
	},
	{
		module: "updatenotification",
		position: "top_bar"
	},
	{
		module: "clock",
		position: "top_left"
	},
	{
		module: "calendar",
		header: "Calendario di Google",
		position: "top_left",
		config: {
			calendars: [
				{
					symbol: "calendar-check",
					url: "MY CALENDAR"					}
			]
		}
	},
	{
		module: "compliments",
		position: "lower_third"
	},
	{
		module: "currentweather",
		position: "top_right",
		config: {
			location: "Savona, Italy",
			locationID: "6542009", //ID from http://bulk.openweathermap.org/sample/city.list.json.gz; unzip the gz file and find your city
			appid: "MYAPPID"
		}
	},
	{
		module: "weatherforecast",
		position: "top_right",
		header: "Previsioni Meteo:",
		config: {
			location: "Savona, Italy",
			locationID: "6542009", //ID from http://bulk.openweathermap.org/sample/city.list.json.gz; unzip the gz file and find your city
			appid: "MYAPPID"
		}
	},
	{
		module: "newsfeed",
		position: "bottom_bar",
		config: {
			feeds: [
				{
					title: "ANSA",
					url: "https://www.ansa.it/sito/ansait_rss.xml"
				}
			],
			showSourceTitle: true,
			showPublishDate: true,
			broadcastNewsFeeds: true,
			broadcastNewsUpdates: true
		}
	},

{
disabled: false,
module: “MMM-NewsFeedTicker”,
position: “bottom_bar”,
//classes: “day_scheduler”,
config: {
feeds: [
{
title: “New York Times”,
url: “http://www.nytimes.com/services/xml/rss/nyt/HomePage.xml”,
customLogo: “NYT_logo_rss_250x40.png”
},
{

customLogo: “bbc_news_120x60.gif”
}
]
}
},

]

};

Thanks in advance!

What does “check.config” do?

[sdetweil]

@Giarry88 ok, I hate this thing.
npm run config:check

It checks the config.js file
