    • RE: Calvin and Hobbs - Adjust screen size?

      @guitartoys
      Try these settings.
      You will probably have to adjust the sizes…
      It fits my 42" TV full screen all directions…

      Custom.css:

      .MMM-CalvinAndHobbes .module-content {
              Margin-top: 10px;
              Margin-left: 10px;
              max-width: 1810px;
              max-height: 1025px;
              width: 1810px;
              height: 1025px;
              overflow: hidden;
      }
      #cahcomiccontent {
              width: 1810px;
              height: 1025px;
      }
      
      

      Config.js:

      {
          module: "MMM-CalvinAndHobbes",
          position: "middle_center",
          config: {
                 invertColors: false,
                 grayScale: false,
                 updateInterval: 7200000,
                 limitComicHeight: -1,
                 maxHeight: "98%"
                    }
          },

      It actually does still work and it is more accurate than Open Weather is.

    • RE: AfterUpdate to v2.3.2 Small Problem

      @sdetweil
      Thank you Sam,
      That fixed my issue, and let me use the default clock files…
      Cool thing is with the old setting in the Custom.css file I can change the colon : color between the numbers a different color.
      Fun Fun Fun.

    • RE: Made a birthday module

      @cgillinger
      I installed your module, it does nothing when its turn comes up in MMM-pages.
      I am running Bookworm, MM 2.30 on a Pi 4 8gb. How do I pick the messages?
      Not quite enough information to run this module.
      Please help with the setup…

      Yes, I was just hoping that he would respond since he was on here 30 days ago…

    • RE: SBC boards that work well besides Raspberry pi 3, 4 or 5

      @JohnGalt
      here is the link to it, called FEH
      FEH
      It is running on an older Rpi 3 with only 1 of ram.
      I do not use a touch screen I just have the Pi 3 double side taped to the back of a 15" monitor…

      @rkorell
      If I install your fork and use the style: “meteosat”,
      Will that work in the USA ? I like the prettier styling…

    • RE: MMM-MovingPortrait

      @robertybob
      I missed the part about AI… I am old and do not understand AI crap, nor do I care to learn about it…

      So I am just going to remove the module and call it a day.
      Thanks so much for your super helpful words…

      @fischi87
      Thank you for your help.
      This is beyond my current abilities…
      I made a 5 second mp4 file that plays in vlc just fine but will not work with the module… Like i told the fella above, I think this is above my abilities. Looks like a fun module…

      I will close this as solved.
      I am not capable.

    • RE: Choosing a RPi model

      @Gherry
      Just went through this myself.
      I ended up with a Pi 4 4gb.
      I decided on it because I already have most things like fans NVME boards, power supplies and cases for the Pi4’s.
      The Pi 5s take different hats and power supplies and even cases… Which added substantial cost to the Pi5’s.
