      @Niggich
      Awesome find and fix. I too use a custom json file in compliments and would never have figured that out…

      Yes, I was just hoping that he would respond since he was on here 30 days ago…
      Worth a try at least…

      @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…

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

      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.

      @robertybob
      I have no green screen or video camera. Suppose I could use my phone.
      But the few I have tried making do not work with the module…
      I was hoping someone could point me to a link to download one from the movie.
      I really do not want one of myself or my dogs.
      I was hoping for one, so it would loook like the ones in the movie. Thatt would make my wife very happy.

      Happy wife = happy life…

      Just have to do a little resizing so it fits the screen again…
      Thank you again…

    • MMM-RAIN-MAP

      Anyone else have MMM-RAIN-MAP all the sudden stop working?
      It actually locked up my MM . OR do I have to many modules running under MMM-pages? Approximately 48.

      Rpi 4 8gb ram running water cooler and nvme-sata 128gb power supply is the pi5 version.

    • MMM-MovingPortrait

      How do I go about getting a wizard.mp4 for the module?
      I do not have the equipment to make one of myself.
      I would like to have one of Harry Potter or Dumbeldor or Miany.
      Not sure how to spell them, just know what my wife says she likes…
      Any help would be appreciated.
      Maybe some place I can download a premade mp4
      I tried a couple I found on line but they will not work.
      Do they have to be under a certain size?

      @joey
      Had not thought about using laptop with dead screen to run MM or other OS on.
      I have one I could work with, to try out different OS’s.

      Just played with Zorin, It is faster by far than windows 11.
      I think in time I could make it a daily useful OS.
      We will see in time.
      Caved, and bought a Pi4 4gb to play with these different modules…

      @DustinBryant
      Could this be used with my WYZE Door Bell???
      Does it operate off the ip address or does it have to use the ring program.?
