      Hi there.

      I’m looking for a module that would show movie posters from the most recently added movies in Plex and switch to a now playing poster when something is played.

      I have a digital poster running movie poster app (https://www.movienowapp.de/) set up but it could be so much more. I don’t want to lose this functionality but would like to have a dashboard and all of the magic mirror stuff as well. I would be great if there was a module to bring these two together on one display.

        @jace055 FWIW, i modified the existing MMM-PlexNowPlaying module (https://github.com/glitch452/MMM-PlexNowPlaying) to view only the movie/show posters on my mirror top_center location. It works pretty well and only required me to modify the MMM-PlexNowPlaying.css to increase the size of the poster to a good size, and the MMM-PlexNowPlaying.js where I commented out the lines that view the title/year text because i found it redundant. Works great now.
