@sdetweil said in MMM-pages - how to know which page index my module has?:

git clone https://github.com/sdetweil/MMM-MPlayer

Did as you suggested

The video appears only on page index 0 and not on the hidden page

See the 2 video images on the attached screenshot - both are over the weather module

The header for the MPlayer appears on the hidden page

I can change to the hidden page with Remote Control, no problem

    {
        module: "MMM-pages",
        config: {
            rotationTime: 1000 * 86400, // rotate every 20 seconds
            modules: [
	
                ["page1"],           // class name for page 1
         //       ["page2"],           // class name for page 2
        //        ["page3"],           // class name for page 3
            ],
            fixed: ["fixed_page"],
            hiddenPages: {
                "Doorbell": ["doorbell_page"],
           
            }
        }
    },

@mvrlogins hm, that makes no sense as the MagicMirror operations are the same

Maybe something to do with mplayer itself, not the module MMM-Mplayer?

@sdetweil said in MMM-pages - how to know which page index my module has?:

@mvrlogins i believe so. but you should have been able to send the notification for the named hidden page

“SHOW_HIDDEN_PAGE”, “Doorbell”

right?!

Yes, the notification works fine.

But mplayer does not show up on the hidden page, only on the main page

Only thing I can think of right now is to put the video on page0 and the rest on page1

and then use a combination of the PAGE_CHANGED and PAUSE_ROTATION notifications to get what I want

Or is there a way to permanently pause rotation?

Then I can only use the PAGE_CHANGED call to get to the page I want

would the below disable rotation?

rotationTime: 1000 * 0,

@sdetweil

I’m using MMM-Remote Control

The issue is that the video is shown all the time on page0.

I have 2 pages set up with MMM-Pages

• 1 page to be shown all the time
• 1 hidden page to be shown only when called.

The video needs to be on the hidden page. If I put classes : “hidden_page” under MMM-Player, the video feed shows on the page0 regardless.

The hidden page, when called, shows only the header fro MMM-Player and is otherwise blank

The page calling works fine with MMM-RemoteControl

 {
        module: "MMM-pages",
        config: {
            rotationTime: 1000 * 20, // rotate every 20 seconds
            modules: [
                ["page1"],           // class name for page 1
            ],
            fixed: ["fixed_page"],
            hiddenPages: {
                "Doorbell": ["doorbell_page"],
           
            }
        }
    },

and

{
	module: 'MMM-MPlayer',
        classes: "doorbell_page",
        disabled: false,
        position: "top_left",
        header: "MPlayer",
	config: {
	  useTwoWindows: true,
	  layout: 'column',
	  monitorAspect: 0,
	  rotate: -1,
	  windowSize: { width: 640, height: 480 },
	  windowPosition: { x: 5, y: 225 },
	  streamInterval: 30000,
	  streams: {
		window1: [
		  'rtsp://10.0.1.1:7447/gv9eHrB9yZyPhgvN',
		],
		window2: [
		  'rtsp://10.0.1.1:7447/D89zTJyDwN8YtKix',
		  
		]
	  }
	}
},

@evroom said in MMM-pages - how to know which page index my module has?:

As a workaround, I will make it a requirement to put the MMM-Player on the first page (page index 0).
When I receive 0, then I will start streaming, otherwise I will stop streaming.
That seems to work.

Hi

Trying to use the mmm-mplayer module with mmm-pages, and it works fine, as you say, when the page index is 0.

However, I’d like to use it to only show video when called via notification

I have a single main page (without mplayer) - that shows all the time - and a single hidden page (with mplayer) to be shown when called via notification and then return the the main page with another notification.

I can’t currently implement this. Any ideas?

Thanks very much

I have MMM-pages setup with 2 pages

1 page shows all the time.

I’d like to show the second page only when called using a HTTP POST or GET from another device. (doorbell camera video , when someone rings the doorbell)

And then only show page 2 for a short, fixed amount of time before reverting back to page 1

Any help/suggestions will be most gratefully received.

Thanks

@N6NG

Sorry for the late reply - missed your post

Following is my calendar config in config.sys

      module: 'calendar',
      position: 'top_right',
      header: 'CALENDAR',
      config: {
       
        maximumEntries: 21,
        maxTitleLength: 25,
        fade: false,
        displaySymbol: false,
        timeFormat: 'relative',
        nextDaysRelative: true,
        dateFormat: 'ddd MMM DD HH:mm',
        fullDayEventDateFormat: 'ddd MMM DD',
        calendars: [
          {
         
            symbol: 'home',
            url: 'webcal://p49-caldav.icloud.com/published/2/abcdefghijkl......mnopqrs',
            maximumEntries: 19
          },

Hope that helps

@sdetweil said in Monitor not awaking from sleep:

@mvrlogins I had a display like that, if no input, it would turn off, even if I was hiding modules.

I had to make a change to one of my modules to wake up mm for 1 second every 14 minutes to keep it from going into shutdown

May I ask how you did that?

Thanks

I’m running a RPi4 with the latest MM release and using MMM-Screen-Powersave-Notification and MMM-GPIO-Notifications along with a motion sensor.

 {                   
	module: 'MMM-Screen-Powersave-Notification',
	config: {                 
        delay: 60
	}
    },


    { 
	module: 'MMM-GPIO-Notifications',
	config: {
	    '4': {
		    gpio_state: 1,
		    gpio_debounce: 0,
            delay: 30000,
		    notifications: [
		        { 
				    notification: 'SCREEN_ON', 
		            payload: { 'forced': false }
		        },
                {

                }
		    ]
	    }
	}
    },

I had this setup on a Dell monitor and it worked perfectly.

I just installed a new monitor - a Lenovo Thinkvision P32p-20

After starting the sensor works as it’s supposed to, waking the monitor when someone passes by and sleeping after 60 seconds of inactivity.

But after a while, the monitor does not wake from sleep. The MM instance is running fine (I can look at the dispaly from a remote browser).

The monitor is in powersave mode (amber LED)

The only way to wake the monitor is to touch a button on the monitor’s control panel.

The monitor has no configuration options for powersave or sleep.

Any suggestions on how to fix this?
