Bien fait! Merci d’avoir documenté vos essais. Selon moi, cela a l’air excellent.

What do you mean by “no screen behind” in the first test? I can see the “Google” browser window. Do you mean there’s no mat (cardboard, vinyl, etc) behind the screen in the first photo?

Hey @MaxPower – Any browser can have a black background (body {background: rgb(0,0,0);}}). However, MM also uses electron to avoid chrome (i.e. browser menus and controls). I recommend considering iframe or specialized modules (e.g. MMM-EmbedYouTube, MMM-YouTube-API) to integrate video streaming into your mirror. Finally, to display other data, you can those modules to display other data or even use the other modules (e.g. MMM-HTTPRequestDisplay, MMM-json-feed) or even building your own.

Using a separate browser isn’t wrong, it’s just difficult to configure and maintain. Setting up to boot into the identical config is more difficult if you have multiple apps running in different orders, etc. You can re-open everything after each boot, but it can become extremely tiresome (after a power outage, replacing components, updating software, etc) to always rearrange everything. YMMV.

@cruunnerr Did you try the solution I suggested here? https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/6047/calendar-module-won-t-show-all-events/4

@Duke86 said in Really confused:

/home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/electron

Try rm -rf /home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/electron. Then run npm install electron.

@Duke86 Hi Duke, start with cd MagicMirror/ … you’re probably trying to start MM out of the wrong folder.

@doubleT @jbrodie Have you tried MMM-CalendarExt by @sean? I use the daily view which gives one week, and is fairly configurable. Should be fairly straightforward to display multiple weeks.

@snowman Or, if you’re really only interested in showing a single image, it may be simpler to use MMM-SimpleLogo: https://github.com/frdteknikelektro/MMM-SimpleLogo

Hi @cruunnerr,

payload.module isn’t part of payload.action, but should be a separate key:

shortPress: {
  notification: "REMOTE_ACTION",
  payload: {
    action: "HIDE",
    module: "module_0_MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic"
  }
},

Hope that helps.

Hey @Esinem,

In GoogleTasks.js:100 it has the following URL: https://developers.google.com/google-apps/tasks/quickstart/nodejs#step_1_turn_on_the_api_name

Recommend you follow Step 1, that should yield your client_secret.json.

Let us know how you fare.

You’re right; for what you were trying to do, you need to use position in config.js. From what I understand you’re trying to do – I could be wrong – you can put this in your custom.css:

div.region.bottom.left div.module.newsfeed {
  text-align: center;
  max-width: 500px; /* change to whatever width you want */
}

This will make any newsfeed module in the bottom_left position still center its text.

By default, any module put against the sides align their text accordingly. This will override that behaviour. You will need max-width otherwise the module will simply (at least, in my testing) span the whole screen.
