      Description:

      This module will play a video file on your magicmirror, using the html video tag so the fileformats are limited to what the browser supports.

      Use CSS to adjust size, placement etc etc.
      Make sure the browser has autoplay enabled since the controls are hidden.

      Download:

      [card:brobergp/MMM-htmlvideo]


      Version 0.1

      Startupversion, nothing fancy.

                      Yes, I am also trying to find a simple way to play a single mp4 file which is stored on my PI. Anyone has a solution inside a module ??
