Top 5 unseen modules
Hi,
I was just wanting to get everyone’s top 5 unseen modules, ones that run in the background to help your MM run smoothly.
Whether it’s carousel, keybindings, a screen burn in saver or background module.
What are your recommendations to run behind the scenes…?
Cheers,

RE: MMM-Carousel & basic KeyBindings not working
@sdetweil I will check it out tonight and see if I can find any errors.

RE: MMM-Carousel & basic KeyBindings not working
@sdetweil I have now got it set with MMM-Remote-Control and can turn anything on and off via my mobile.
This is certainly a good start to being able to control what I want to see and when.
Thank you for the help.
Brent.

My kitchen dashboard (incomplete)
Hi all,
Just thought I’d share my work in progress.
This is our “in progress” family kitchen dashboard, currently set up on a full hd computer screen but will be going to a UWQHD screen in the next week or so in it’s final position and format.
I have used the following modules
Standard MM clock
MMM-MyCalendar x 3 times (Family Calendar, Meal Planner, Uniform sections)
MMM-MyWastePickup
MMM-OpenWeatherForecast
MMM-MyCommute
Once I go to the UWQHD screen I may change things up a little but will see how they look and perform first.
I am also thinking of going to a pages scenario where the clock mainly shows with a background image all the time until the pi is triggered somehow to show the other modules.
Cheers,
Brent. -

@sdetweil thank you, I shall do. It’s been a long time since I was last on a forum.

RE: MMM-Carousel & basic KeyBindings not working
@sdetweil I have switched back to MMM-pages as it is much cleaner. I will see what other options I have in the notification sending arena to suit me.
Any simple suggestions welcome.

RE: MMM-Carousel & basic KeyBindings not working
@sdetweil I just managed to jump on. I may have to upgrade my mirror as I saw a minimum requirements and my current version of MM was under that. I am trying to find your update scripts at the moment.

RE: MMM-Carousel & basic KeyBindings not working
@sdetweil I am unable to jump on the computer tonight.
Would the pages module work with keybindings to move through the pages? Or to the hidden page. Essentially want the main page and a second or hidden page that only comes up with a button click.
Also considering the remote module to have the toggle switch to just turn on the extra modules I have shown on the second page when needed.

@sdetweil There are no notifications being sent when I hit the keyboard buttons.

MMM-Carousel & basic KeyBindings not working
Hi all,
I had set up MMM-Carousel and MMM-KeyBindings with the default suggestions on the module pages for running these two together with a regular keyboard, however the arrow keys are not changing the slides. Please see below, any help would be great.
{ module: "MMM-KeyBindings", config: { evdev: {enabled: false}, enableKeyboard: true, } }, { module: "MMM-Carousel", disabled: false, position: "bottom_bar", // Required only for navigation controls config: { transitionInterval: 10000, //20000, ignoreModules: ['alert', 'updatenotification', 'MMM-KeyBindings'], mode: "slides", showPageIndicators: true, showPageControls: true, slides: { main: ['clock', 'MMM-OpenWeatherForecast', 'MMM-WOTD', 'MMM-BackgroundSlideshow'], "Slide 2": ['clock', 'MMM-OpenWeatherForecast', 'MMM-MyCalendar', 'MMM-TomTomCalculateRouteTraffic', 'MMM-MyWastePickup', 'MMM-BackgroundSlideshow'], "Slide 3": ['clock', 'MMM-OpenWeatherForecast', 'MMM-WOTD', 'MMM-BackgroundSlideshow'], }, keyBindings: { enabled: true, map: { NextSlide: "ArrowRight", PrevSlide: "ArrowLeft", Pause: "ArrowDown", Slide0: "Home" }, mode: "DEFAULT" } },

RE: Top 5 unseen modules
@sdetweil so I would put this bit as a stand alone module just with no position.
{ module: 'MMM-KeyBindings', config: { evdev: { enabled: false }, enableKeyboard: true, } },

RE: Top 5 unseen modules
@brentmatthews Hi Sam,
I seem to be missing something with KeyBindings as the arrow keys are not making the pages change. Would you mind advising if you have the time.
{ module: "MMM-Carousel", disabled: false, position: "bottom_bar", // Required only for navigation controls config: { transitionInterval: 0, //20000, showPageIndicators: true, showPageControls: true, ignoreModules: ['alert', 'updatenotification', 'MMM-KeyBindings'], mode: "slides", slides: { main: ['clock', 'MMM-OpenWeatherForecast', 'MMM-WOTD', 'MMM-BackgroundSlideshow'], "Slide 1": ['clock', 'MMM-OpenWeatherForecast', 'MMM-MyCalendar', 'MMM-TomTomCalculateRouteTraffic', 'MMM-MyWastePickup', 'MMM-BackgroundSlideshow'], }, keyBindings: { enabled: true, map: { NextSlide: "ArrowRight", PrevSlide: "ArrowLeft", }, mode: "DEFAULT" } }, },
