MMM-ImagesPhotos - Show images from a directory

[pepebc]

I like this module, but I would like it to start hidden by default in order to add the possibility of making it visible with voice command (use alexyak / voicecontrol). I have tried several options but I have no results.

@pepebc

Take a look at the Hello-Lucy files. You can adapt what you find there to alex yak voice control. :-)

I realize this might not be the fault of the module, but many of my images display with the orientation incorrect on this module. I open them on my Mac, and the orientation is correct. I open them in the built-in image viewer on the raspberry pi, and the orientation is correct.

I’ve tried using exiftool to remove the orientation settings entirely with no success. I also tried using exiftool to change the orientation with no success.

My magic mirror is in portrait mode, so I wonder if that matters, but the built-in viewer has no problems.

@twosquirrels So, I suspect (but cannot be certain) that this is your problem. I’ve not found great browser support for EXIF image rotation. There are a variety of command line approaches available, and even some GUI apps.

@ninjabreadman exiftran worked wonderfully! I used the “automatic” option and it fixed them all! Thanks!

@chassain-0 ImagesPhotos already does random all the time.

	randomPhoto: function() {
		var photos = this.photos;
		var index = this.randomIndex(photos);

		return photos[index];
	},


	getDom: function() {
		var self = this;
		var wrapper = document.createElement("div");
		var photoImage = this.randomPhoto();
