    • Random_Quotes

      Hello,
      I need to set width of this module random_quotes in my custom.css.
      Right now the only way I can find to get it to flow the full width of my screen is to edit line 176 of the modules js file. link text
      From this:

      quote.style.maxWidth = '50%';
      

      To this:

      quote.style.maxWidth = '98%';
      

      What would I put in the custom.css to make the same change?

    • RE: MMM-Imageslideshow - centering upright images

      @sdetweil
      I run pretty much all modules middle_center so they all center up pretty well for me. up and down is my only adjustments usually. I have had to adjust the left or right margin a few times but most everything centers on its own pretty well using the middle_center postion when setting them up… So I am absolutely of no help to him…

    • RE: MMM-Imageslideshow - centering upright images

      @Bobrae
      I use this in my custom.css file to move MMM-ImagesPhotos down below the Date and Time on my mirror.

      .MMM-ImagesPhotos {
              Margin-top: 35px;
      }```
       You can adjust that to what ever instead of 35 px I use. 
       I have one module (MMM-Bored) that I use 420px as my top margin. 
       It just takes some time to find the perfect placement to center.

      @MMRIZE
      Darn, I am on a RPi 4 with 8gb ram, it has a 120gb ssd on a x825 expansion board. I think it should have enough umph to run a lot more than it does. Any chance I can get a preview of the module you where working on.?
      @BKeyport
      Maybe my setup is why RTSPStream seems to work well for my 5 different wyze cams that I am streaming from. I only stream one at a time and only for 45 seconds at a time, but they show up in a few seconds running MMM-Carousel as the page viewer. VLC works ok but takes way too long to populate and then I can’t control the size/zoom not sure which, So I only get part of the cameras view.

      So I guess I will stick with RTSPStream until one of these guinues coders come up with something that works better…
      I appreciate the effort @MMRIZE

      I went back to Buster (10) and my Mirror with rtspstream is working great now. Using OMXplayer. I will stick with buster until someone can get rtsp to work with bullseye (11) or whatever 12 is going to be called when it comes out…

    • RE: How to turn off Raspberry Pi LEDs

      @Fozi @GuestMirror
      Works on my RPi 4
      I just copied and pasted to the bottom of the config.txt did a PM2 stop all and then sudo reboot and when it came backup they where on for a few seconds and then went off. @GuestMirror are you in the /boot/config.txt?

      @Fozi said in How to turn off Raspberry Pi LEDs:

      @GuestMirror Try this in bootconfig.txt

      # Turn off PWR LED
      dtparam=pwr_led_trigger=none
      dtparam=pwr_led_activelow=off
       
      # Turn off ACT LED
      dtparam=act_led_trigger=none
      dtparam=act_led_activelow=off
       
      # Turn off Ethernet ACT LED
      dtparam=eth_led0=4
       
      # Turn off Ethernet LNK LED

      That is great to know. Thanks for the update, no worries.
      I actually have RTSPStream up and running now using VLC.
      So I am in no rush.

      @MMRIZE ,
      You get that RTSP module to work yet. I am very interested in it since MMM-RTSPStream has quit working altogether for me.
      Not sure what I did different this time but even vlc fails to show a picture…

      @BKeyport
      I have been looking at both and neither will work with my MM.
      I thank you for the information though I thought for a bit I could make it work, but I finally just gave up. My head was hurting from all the reading and searching to get it all to work. You must have the patients of Job to get that to work. More likely you understand code WAY better than I do… All this code is way above my understanding…

      @sdetweil

      What are the differances? Maybe switching to yours would let me run a second one again. I used to have one that shows my grandkids and the other our dogs past and present Now I can only get one to run at a time.
      Probably need to do some reading about running multiple versions…

      Here is what I use in my config.js file, for an example:

      {
              module: "MMM-ImagesPhotos",
              position: "middle_center",
              config: {
                      opacity: 0.9,
                      animationSpeed: 500,
                      updateInterval: 10000,
                      backgroundColor: "black",
                      maxWidth: "500px",
                      maxHeight: "500px",
                      fill: false
              }
      },
      

      Hope this is what you where looking for. I find and example really helps me figure out what I am doing wrong or in some cases what I am doing correct.

    • MMM-Cocktails null null null

      Hello Again,
      Trying to fix some little annoyances like this one where MMM-Cocktails is using null to hold the line spacing, I guess. I left a new issue with the maker a week ago or so, I understand he is not able to communicate at this time with us. I was hoping someone has run into this before and I am just not able to do the correct word search to find the answer.
      See the picture for a better explanation… Circled in RED.

      @plainbroke you are getting from here, right?
      https://github.com/mykle1/MMM-DumbAssCatFacts.git

      line 100 is right, I had added a debug line and a blank line.

      Yes to your question. I am not sure why because nothing changed overnight, 8pm to 7am next day, but all the sudden it started working. Only thing I can think happened was my internet is hit or miss during really stormy weather and it could not get a good connection to the api provider. If that is even a thing. Which is weird because the RainMap module I have running seems to always work… Oh well problem solved. Not going to worry about it anymore this week.

      Thank you for all the help you provide.

      Hey I am back where I can test this RTSP module you have whipped up…
      Heck I would be fine if I could get RTSPStream to work with vlc since I use full screen when the camera feeds come around in the MMM-Carousel module.
      email same as user @gmail.com. What you are showing would be great if I can use it at full screen above or something like that…
