<![CDATA[MMM-SmartWebDisplay : display web contents (including YouTube) on your MM]]>Dear all,

Following several requests on my previous module MMM-iFrame-Ping, I have created a new one on the same topic (= web display using iFrame object) with different functionalities, see a comparison at the end.

Functionalities of this module :

  • Several rotating URLs, it is possible to change the URL to display through :
  • Periodic refresh of the URL, or not (configurable), this allow to display images or video
  • Allow to receive notification for the following actions :
    • Change the URL or the list of URLs to displays, and update refresh timer value and rotating timer value (This mean that you can change the video to display on your mirror by sending a message from your phone or PC)
    • Go to the next/previous URL of the list
    • Play/Pause/Stop the update and rotation of URLs
      These notifications can by sent by several other MM module and also (thanks to MMM-RemoteControl) by external http request, as for example IFTTT or Tasker (Android)
  • If a PIR-sensor using MMM-PIR-Sensor module is used, the display will not be updated during screen off (this behavior works also with all other module that send the notification “USER_PRESENCE”) and will be refresh with screen on.
  • If the MMM-SmartWebDisplay module is hidden (by MMM-RemoteControl or any Carousel module for example), the URL display will not be updated. As soon as one MMM-SmartWebDisplay module will be again displayed on the screen, an update will be requested.
  • Possibility to display the date and time of the last update request (configurable)
  • Possibility to declare several instances (but so far the notification will address all the instances together)
  • CSS file

Screenshot :
The module displaying YouTube :

Modification of the module MMM-RemoteControl to allow controling MMM-SmartWebDisplay :
0_1549819312002_RemoteSWD.png 0_1549819318667_RemoteSWD_2.png

Comparison MMM-iFrame-Ping VS MMM-SmartWebDisplay :

Advantage MMM-iFrame-Ping :

  • only display content if reachable and display the last date and time it was reachable

Advantages MMM-SmartWebDisplay :

  • Several instances
  • Several URL with auto rotation possible
  • Notification to send new URL to display and to manage Next/Previous/Play/Pause/Stop commands
  • Special version of MMM-RemoteControl to allow Next/Previous/Play/Pause/Stop commands easily

Bugs and next to code:

  • Being able to send the new URL through MMM-RemoteControl
  • Manage the notification with several instances (to send the notification only to one instance and not all)
  • Any other idea ??

v2.0 - oct 2019

  • Add support of MMM-TelegramBot to send commands to the module

The page is here: https://unitydemos.frostweepgames.com/assetstore/microphone-webgl/ and they’ve provided a button to request permission but it’s not working on the pi. I’m trying to use this page as a test to determine if a simple Unity project compiled for webGL with audio input / output can be displayed as a magic mirror module. Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Sorry if this has been covered before but I’ve just tried several css parameters to try to scroll the webpage down by 100-400 px. Lots of things moved the actual iframe around the mirror to certain degrees but the actual web page inside was not affected no matter what I did.

If anyone can advise the correct css ?under iframe? To use please?

I had high hopes for margin height but either - or + nothing changes …

Dooohhh any help appreciated sick of manually scrolling web page to position. When I do it stays there and only see the bit I want refreshing great.

Thanks,

Lorraine

Is there any way to kill the refresh animation (Fade in/out)? I generally hate animation on everything. It’s annoying. Just refresh.

EDIT: I’ve given up on the module due to finding a better solution, no need to host a webpage to set up what I needed, and no fading in/out…

can you share the better solution?

To do so, you can ask your domiticz system to send a new url request according to the humidity value.
See https://github.com/AgP42/MMM-SmartWebDisplay#change-the-url for the synthaxe of the request to be sent.

But no, the module itself don’t have an input for any “logical” behavior.

‘http://maps.meteoradar.co.uk/’ with two different zooms. No problem with that.
I also use the MMM-domoticz which shows me the rain forecast.
My question :
Is it possible when the% rain is less than 20%, for example, not to display the maps in SmartWebDisplay OR to display something else, for example.

Adjusting any of the variables, either by percent or pixel, just seems to resize the window, but not the feed itself. It doesn’t zoom accordingly.

Hello everybody,
I am going crazy to find ways to disable audio from this module.
It’s possible?
If yes, how?
Thank you.

Hello,

from the module itself : no it is not managed.
But it depend the kind of source you are playing, if it is YouTube, you just have to click on the “Mute” button on the YouTube interface !

This morning, I’m getting errors on all the site images stating “This browser does not support svg”. No images display and they are a mixture of svgs and pngs.

I’d made a copy of an existing website using HTTrack and I’m hosting it locally using Apache2. I’m not familiar with how MagicMirror renders pages so I’m not really sure where to look or what to change to resolve this issue.

Edit: Not sure how, but the referring page was one level deeper and had to be referenced correctly. Fixed!

@pdawg17 ok, I don’t know the module, but I ‘think’ it displays ANOTHER web page ON the MM screen… (according to the readme)

MMM-SmartWebDisplay is a module for MagicMirror². It allow to display any web content to your MagicMirror and interact with it(the web content) through notifications or with MMM-TelegramBot.

so, I’m not sure U access it via the MM web page url…

now, remote control is also not a web page access tool…

you can SEND it requests and it will do the action…

Ok I’ve got it working but not with the website I want to use. I can get YouTube videos to work now but not this site:

@pdawg17 that doesn’t sound right…

MM_IPaddress:8080

that should bring up the MM interface

refused to connect”

could also mean wrong ip address

I’m sorry. What I mean is the MMM-SmartWebDisplay part of the Mirror gives that error. I can access the mirror from a browser just fine.

@pdawg17 in your config.js, more than likely u have

address: 'localhost',
ipwhiteList:[.......]

this means that ONLY apps INSIDE the mirror machine can access the mirror app (usually a mirror hangs on the wall and no-one accesses it (or should) )…

u need to allow outside access

address="0.0.0.0",
ipWhiteList:[],

allow anyone to access on any network interface (wifi or lan if both enabled)

Unfortunately, your solution is what I have already :(
