Using an android browser called “Fullscreen Browser” (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xyz.fullscreenbrowser&hl=en), but I’ve also seen this on my desktop which runs Chrome (Win x64).
Running this normally on a Fire Tablet, MM is running on an Rpi2.
Just to give my 2p. I run MM on a RPi in serveronly mode and then use a Fire Tablet as the display device inside of a small Ikea RIBBA frame. You do need to sideload some applications to get the best experience like a fullscreen browser and better brightness control, so it takes a little effort but it great for a first, cheap, Magic Mirror.
A single app would be easier, but MM2 has much more flexibility and customisation potential. I’m already working on a bigger Magic Mirror that will have sensors to detect when people are in front of it, integrate temperature sensing and many other things.
I’ve certainly learned a lot from just reading the forums and playing with modules, its worth it for the best experience :)
Hang in there!
When I run in serveronly mode and connect a browser, everything works and displays correctly, but the information on for the modules only seems to be pulled once. The news and other items like transport and calendars never update until I refresh the browser. Is there a way to force MM to update this or do I need some auto refresh plugin on the browser end?
When I use
ipWhitelist: [],
Any IP I use shows as blocked. I’m using an RPi 2 with “node serveronly”.
Trying the new version, I’m not sure I’m configuring the options correctly?
If I only want to show Metro, I choose “M” under vehicle, but somehow all transport modes are still shown in the Mirror frontend. Secondly, the Metro stops don’t seem to be available in your list, and I assume that is due to the API lacking them? Is there anyway around this?
Should it look something like this
{
module: 'MMM-Rejseplanen',
position: 'top_left',
header: 'Rejseplanen.dk',
config: {
stationID: "?",
stationName: "Forum",
vehicle: "M",
destfilter: ""
}
},
I’d really appreciate any help you could provide!
@Manmachine Thanks! I’ll check it out and get back to you, what a great community this is!
Hey! I found your module and its really close to what I’m after! I’d like to be able to see when the next Metro train is leaving from a certain station, and in which direction its going (end station). Basically what you can see shown here: http://intl.m.dk/#!/stations/stationer/noerreport The information apparently is sourced from Rejseplanen so I would assume the API would cover it.
If you have any hints on where to get started I’d be happy to hear them, I’ve got some basic experience with JavaScript but thought that you would be the best person to ask :)
This and your sonarr module are exactly what I was after, thanks for putting in the effort :)
Was looking at this module to display some push notifications. I know that it won’t work with Pushover due to their API, but there is one option that Pushover has that would be really useful which is syncing alert dismissals. This means that you can get the alerts on your phone or mirror, but as soon as you acknowledge it on the phone it is removed from all other devices. This would be good to ensure you see the alert wherever you are, but are able to control when it is removed from the mirror. Just a thought :)
I’m looking to do the same using a cheap Fire Tablet, but would like to use the PIR function of the tablets front camera to turn the display on and off, is this possible if using an RPi hosting the MM webserver?
