    Hello everyone,
    I have my magic mirror up and running with some core modules, Spotify etc.
    I would really like add a slideshow with pictures of my kids
    Unfortunately the pictures are on a mounted drive in a directory structure YY/YYMM
    In total about 30k pictures.
    Any idea how I can fork one of the existing modules to randomly show pictures from these directories?
    Thanks
    Wolf
