having problems about mmm-backgroundslideshow HOT 5 CLOSED

It needs to be like this:

imagePaths: ["modules/MMM-BackgroundSlideshow/example1"],

You are missing "modules" in your config.

thank you it is now working! that looks amazing!

Never the less I have 2 questions:
What should I write to have the pictures longer on the screen

and second, and I think it will not be possible: I have a picture that is more on white, I can't see the informations of the weather for exemple. Is there any way to have the modules more clear?

anyway thank you!!

You would use slideshowSpeed for them to be longer. It is in milliseconds, so 1000 = 1 second.
You will have to play with the gradient settings to get it how you like. Here is what I have mine at:

gradient: [
'rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.75) 0%',
'rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 40%',
'rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 70%',
'rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.75) 100%'
],

One way to see it easier is to set the background to completely white. Then tweak the gradient to your liking.

thank you darickc !!

it did work!

Only: I do not know how to read the radiant bracket:
rgba: red green blue ... what is the a for?

why is there 4 lines and what is the % meaning?

thank you for your patience towards a niewbe!!!

a is for Alpha or the opacity. It is decimal value between 0 and 1. 0 is transparent and 1 is opaque. The percent of the four lines refers to the position on the screen. 0% is the top of the screen, 100% is the bottom (if going vertically, there is now an option for the gradient to be horizontal as well). You aren't limited to four lines either. You can have as many as you want. I use four lines to make it easier to read text on the top and bottom of the screen. If you wanted just the top line you could do something like this:
gradient: [
'rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.75) 0%',
'rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 40%'
],
