Love the module. Is it possible to add a feature to allow you to change the video being streamed after a certain amount of time? I’d like to cycle through multiple live video camera streams.

Hi @Sean ,
I installed your module and thank you for your effort.

I did not understand how do I send YouTube videos to the MM …
Could you explain to me?

Many thanks.

You can use a few methods; via TelegramBot commands, notifications from other modules.
Which usecase are you considering?

Thanks @Sean
Unfortunately I thought there was the possibility of sending youtube videos via smartphone using “RaspiCast” or something similar…

Could you recommend some module?

MMM-TelegramBot. You can send like this on telegram;

Or you can use MMM-Remote-Control or other HTTP Request Receiver modules (e.g: MMM-NotificationTrigger),
But additional typing is somewhat annoying.

@Sean said in MMM-YouTube:

MMM-Remote-Control

Thanks for your advises, but I chose to use RaspiCast directly to share the videos (when the video ends the MM returns…).

Do you know how to mute the sound of the MM (not the Raspberry …)?

Well, ideally possible. But I think you’d better make playlist to play several video sequentially.

@Sean Thanks Sean. Is there a way to limit the amount of time for each video in the playlist? Only play for 30 seconds, then switch to the next video in the playlist?

@iwaldrum
Maybe possible. As far as I know, There are several scheduling modules. Or you can use cron. Emit notification per 30 seconds.
But, If I were you, I would just make a summary video clip with 30 seconds of each videos. :D

Hi! How do I get rid of black borders around the video, i.e. stretch/fill/crop the video?
