Use your MagicMirror2 as a media dashboard with rotating backgrounds.
Customized Alert Module with Sounds
- MMM-BackgroundSlideshow
- MMM-iFrame
- MMM-MyCalendar
- MMM-NowPlayingOnSpotify
- MMM-PlexNowPlaying
- MMM-Sounds2 (Optional)
- MMM-Api (Optional)
The css/custom.css contains customizations such as removing module headers and changing the MyCalendar default layout.
The config/config.js contains my setup for each module.
My collection of backgrounds used is available for download here
If you want to use the widget showing online/offline status of services such as sabnzbd, plex, etc. You'll have to edit status/index.php and upload it all to a webserver and use the MMM-iFrame module to show it on your dashboard.
As I wrote this, I decided it would be a fun idea to convert that to an actual module, so stay tuned!
I use this to send different alerts to my dashboard such as when motion is detected on certain cameras, when new shows and movies download etc. Some I do through ifttt.com and others have notifications built in.
