Hi,

just tried your config in my setup and everything worked as expected.

The question is…where are the differences in your and mine setup.

As a first try you can replace embedElementType: "webview," with embedElementType: "iframe,".

If the embeded pages does not block embedding iframe should work and you do not weaken any security settings of the electron browser.

Additionally you can replace "frameborder=0", with "frameborder=1",. You should see two boxes at least then. Even if the sites could not be embedded.

@sdetweil Are you sure you set the security settings of electron? Without them electron will not support webview and will not display anything.

I updated the config as requested, once without, and then with “iframe”.

{
                       module: "MMM-EmbedURL",
                       position: "upper_third",
                       header: "Embed-URL",
                       config: {
                               updateInterval: 120,
                               embedElementType: "iframe",
                               attributes: [
                                       "frameborder=1",
                               ],
                               embed: [
                                       "http://10.0.0.51:50081/ui3.htm?t=live&cam=Doorbell&maximize=1",
                                       "https://www.youtube.com/embed/dIHr96KqfDI",
                               ]
                       },
               },

Without switching to iframe, the frameborder made no difference. Now with iframe, I have two blank boxes appearing.

@unaccomplished I agree, not the errors I was seeing…

so @wishmaster270 will have to help more

[sdetweil]

@unaccomplished your code markers MUST start in column 1.

@sdetweil

Sorry, is it a formatting error in my comments, or in my config file?

@wishmaster270

Just went back in and realized these were commented out in my config.

ignoreXOriginHeader: true,
ignoreContentSecurityPolicy: true,

I added them back in, and success! Now to find a way to config the page to not need a login, but its huge progress. Thanks!
