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

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:
