Multiple "Mirrors" from a single device
-
Is it possible to run multiple mirrors from a single device?
My current MM utilises the default Calendar module to display family member calendars from Google in the top_left section and the MMM-CalendarWeek module in the bottom_bar section to display another Google calendar.
I know I can display the MM via a web browser on any number of devices, but this is just a duplicate of what I see from the directly-connected host device.I want to output the family calendars on one display while the other calendar displays on another.
This could be where one is displayed to a directly-connected output, while the other is viewed from a browser, or possibly, both are displayed via a browser if physically locating the host with either display isn’t possible.Is this sort of setup doable?
I had read online that I would have to create a second config.js file, configured as required for the alternate view.
Within that file, I would have to specify an alternate port (say 8081) and initiate a secondary instance of MM.
However, the instructions never indicated or specified how the second config.js file would be referenced in order to display the appropriate output. -
@DarrenO-0 yes you can run multiple instances from the same folder with different configurations
there is a section in the doc on doing this
