MMM-SmartWebDisplay : display web contents (including YouTube) on your MM

BeatIdo

Hi,
Has anyone tried to use MMM-SmartWebDisplay module configured in fullscreen-above region ?
I’ve made several tests and each time I try to use a fullscreen region it displays nothing.
I’ll be glad to run some test or other configuration if you’ve got any idea 🙂
Regards.

Hey AgP42, awesome job on this. Is there any way to remove or block an element from the url referenced?

Edit: Nevermind. I don’t think it’s possible and just as easy to download the site, host it on the pi itself, then reference the site in the module.

I am trying to use this module but no matter what URL I use, nothing shows up on my MM and when looking at it from my browser it says the URL “refused to connect”. Any ideas?

what is ‘it’?? MM or the URL U are trying to view?

@sdetweil ‘It’ would be the MM setup from my browser: MM_IPaddress:8080. Thanks!

@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 :(

@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 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…
