you can add Youtube subscription: THX

Are you asking for a feature to show you how many subscribers you have?? If so, this clock won't be able to do that as that requires a secure connection and this clock does not have that feature built in.

I've been looking into adding YouTube this week and been able to make a display with the bare minimum from the scrolling clock with just TimeDB now updated to ArduinoJson V6 & also been able to program YouTube with the help of some other code from another display.

The display now shows the time for my country, then scrolls the date & YouTube Subscribers with next update due with a countdown.

Once I figure out the other coding I'll see about adding it into my fork if possible. If not I'll just add what I have into another repos.

Please note that you will need to follow the instructions from Brian Lough (https://github.com/witnessmenow) who is the creator of the YouTubeAPI script to get the details you will need for it to work.

I've uploaded the code for the YouTube scroller, its the basic coding but does work for informing you of how many subscribers you have, but please read through the readme & YouTube-scroller.ino for the details as there is NO server interface like Qrome's normal scroller.

Its all got to be programmed in before you compile into the D1 Mini. It uses the same connections to the max7219 displays.

This is great, but there are no plans to integrate YouTube Subscriber count into the main code line.
