I’ve been working on a small ambient information appliance called Seymour.

The inspiration is the original 3Com Audrey internet appliance. Seymour is built around a Raspberry Pi, a 7-inch touchscreen, a rotary encoder, an illuminated WLED ring, an internal speaker, and a 3D-printed enclosure. I chose MagicMirror because its module ecosystem already provides most of the useful building blocks.

Instead of presenting everything as one dashboard, Seymour organizes modules into channels. Pressing the encoder opens the channel selector, rotating chooses a channel, and pressing again opens it. The touchscreen is also available.

The current prototype includes clock, weather, news, calendar, messages, a kitchen timer, and local music playback through Music Assistant. The LED ring provides status and attention feedback, while the speaker handles music and timer sounds.

It is still a working prototype, although it may already be close to the finished personal appliance I wanted. I’m continuing to polish the documentation and software before making the repositories public.

I caught hell today because I had our anniversary date wrong in MM. I use google calendar to feed the default calendar module and it seems that if I have an all day event scheduled it puts that date as one day prior to the actual event. I verified the date is correct on my calendar and don’t see any reason for it to be incorrect in MM. I checked another all day event coming up and MM displayed it’s date as one day prior also.

I’m running on an RPI 5 with 4GB of memory and a 256GB NVME. MM is running as a container on docker. MMversion is 2.34.0.

I also have MM , 2.34.0, running with docker on my laptop 32GB memory and 1TB SSD dual boot with Ubuntu 26.04 and win 11. The dates are correct on the laptop, running Linux.

Is there any thing I can do to correct this since it is running on a default module?

TIA, Ron

super basic question, both modules are from the same developer, but both are missing the most basic info of how to install.

in instances like this how do I find the first bit of info to put in terminal to start pulling down the info needed for a module?

Cheers.

After upgrading MM awhile ago my Zero 2W started having issues where MM would intermittently freeze or not start at all after a reboot. I tried a bunch of different things but nothing improved the situation.

I had an old Pi 3B+ lying around and decided to try that. It was solid for over a week in testing so I replaced the Pi in my mirror with the 3B+ and it’s been great.

I have two instances of weather in my config. The first for current and using my pws provider. The second for forecast using weathergov. Both display data but the forecast seems to ignore the fade: false option. Here are the module entries from my config.js.

  ```

{
module: “weather”,
position: “top_right”,
order: “1”,
header: “Our Weather Station”,
config: {
weatherProvider: “pws”,
stationId: “KTXFARME145”,
apiKey: “xxxxx”,
type: “current”
},
disabled: false,
label: “instance 1”,
hiddenOnStartup: false,
configDeepMerge: false,
animateIn: “none”,
animateOut: “none”,
index: 0
},
{
module: “weather”,
position: “top_right”,
order: “2”,
header: “Weather Forecast”,
config: {
weatherProvider: “weathergov”,
type: “forecast”,
lat: 33.173,
lon: -96.332
},
colored: true,
fade: false,
fadePoint: “1”,
maxEntries: “7”,
maxNumberOfDays: “7”,
disabled: false,
label: “instance 2”,
hiddenOnStartup: false,
configDeepMerge: false,
animateIn: “none”,
animateOut: “none”,
index: 1
},

I have updated the MMM-PWSWeather provider v2.0 for MM v2.35.0+. The provider pws now runs as a server-side provider API. If you are running an older version of MM you can download the initial release.

Hey!

Pretty new at everything about MM2. Built one a few years ago but forgot most about how everything work.

Anywho, I got my mirror set up and running a few simple modules, but have some issues with one specific module. Tried to comment in the thread about the module about a year ago

https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/5582/mmm-skolmaten-shows-school-lunch-menus-in-sweden-from-skolmaten-se?page=1

but didn´t get any answer. So I guess i´ll try my luck in this threat.

The module is called MMM-Skolmaten, a swedish module that show what food that is served in swedish schools. I´ve installed it and added it to my confiq.js. It shows up when i start MM. But the info keeps saying “loading” and nothing happends.

I´ve tried re-installing . Changed the rss from default to diffent rss without any luck.
In the module thread it says to " Do a “npm install rss-parser@2.12.0”. But it doesn´t work.

Guess its a long shot to solve this, but I thought i would give it a try :)

The module thread is in english if there is any info that could help.

Thanks!

Hey everyone,

I built a module to show upcoming train/bus/light rail departures from any Danish stop, using the Rejseplanen API 2.0. Wanted to share in case it’s useful to other Danish (or Scandinavian-adjacent) mirror builders.

Features:

Departure times with real-time delay updates
Transport-type icons (S-Tog, Bus, Letbane)
Filter by transport type
Time-window filtering (e.g. only show departures within the next hour)
Walking-time reachability — dims departures you can’t realistically catch based on how long it takes you to get to the stop
Optional platform/track display
Dynamic header showing your configured stop name

Screenshot:

Repo: https://github.com/SyS64760/MMM-DSBDepartures

Requires a free Rejseplanen Labs API key (non-commercial use gets 50,000 calls/month, no cost). Setup instructions and full config options are in the README.

Feedback and issues welcome — happy to improve it if others find bugs or want features added.

Hey folks, anyone else having problems with the MMM-EnvCanada module in the last few days? My module isn’t loading the forecast. Just trying to figure out if other people are affected or if something went wrong on my end.

Thanks!

Last one from my little MMM suite: MMM-WifiLink — a clean, iOS-style Wi-Fi signal indicator for MagicMirror².

• Five signal bars that light up and change colour with link quality (green → amber → red)
• Reads the real signal strength in dBm via iw dev <iface> link
• Optional localised quality label (English and German included)
• In-place DOM updates, so the display does not flicker on refresh
• Two sizes: normal and small

It is intended for Linux hosts with a wireless interface and requires the iw package. Configuration is just the interface name plus a few display options.

GitHub: https://github.com/ago1776/MMM-WifiLink · MIT. Feedback welcome 🙂

From my suite: MMM-TokenUsage — shows daily AI token usage as stacked gradient bars over the last two weeks (one series for Claude, one for OpenAI), plus a legend, a total and a “today” figure. Weekends are marked and any provider-fallback days are listed.

It’s a pure renderer: you feed it a data.json (e.g. produced by your own token-tracking script / cron). A sample data.json is included so it works out of the box.

GitHub: https://github.com/ago1776/MMM-TokenUsage · MIT. Feedback welcome 🙂

Another from my suite: MMM-MoonClear — a clean, comic-style moon phase with the current sunrise and sunset flanking the moon. No API key — everything is computed locally with SunCalc.

• Accurate moon phase (illuminated fraction) as an SVG with a soft shadow terminator
• Localised phase name below the moon (English & German included, easy to add more)
• Sunrise (warm, ↑) on the left and sunset (cool, ↓) on the right, with times
• Fully self-contained styling — no dependency on any global stylesheet
• Location, size and clock format all configurable

GitHub: https://github.com/ago1776/MMM-MoonClear · MIT. Feedback welcome 🙂

Part of my MMM suite: MMM-FamilyPresence — household presence in a single row, one avatar per person with a short home / away status.

Each person’s status can come from three sources:

• network — a home flag from a presence data.json you feed it (e.g. generated from your router’s DHCP leases; a sample is included)
• calendarNext — home while a matching calendar event runs, otherwise away with the next date (great for “child stays every other week”)
• calendarAway — home by default, away only during a matching event (label = event title, e.g. “at grandma’s”)

Calendar sources listen to the standard CALENDAR_EVENTS broadcast, so you just add the built-in calendar module with the relevant feeds.

GitHub: https://github.com/ago1776/MMM-FamilyPresence · MIT. Feedback welcome 🙂

Part of my MMM suite: MMM-SchoolWeek — a weekly school timetable. The active day is rendered in full (colour blocks with subject icon, name and time, breaks shown as real gaps on a proportional time axis); the other days are compact grey columns with abbreviations, so the whole week fits at a glance.

• Active day full-size and time-proportional, current lesson highlighted
• Other weekdays compact, side by side
• Built-in colour/icon map for common subjects, fully overridable
• Optionally trim recurring “before/after school care” lessons at the day edges
• Self-contained styling, nothing hardcoded

GitHub: https://github.com/ago1776/MMM-SchoolWeek · MIT. Feedback welcome 🙂

Another one from my little MMM suite: MMM-FamilyAgenda — it turns the standard calendar module into a compact family agenda.

• Upcoming events grouped by day, each with a semantic emoji
• Per-person avatars derived from the calendar name (name → emoji + colour)
• Optional weather at each event’s location — geocoded via OpenStreetMap Nominatim, OpenWeather key (bring your own)

It doesn’t fetch calendars itself — you add the built-in calendar module with your feeds, and this listens to its CALENDAR_EVENTS broadcast. So it layers on top of what you already run.

Hi all 👋

Sharing a module I built: MMM-WeatherHero — a compact “hero” weather card.

• Big current temperature with a large weather icon that overlaps the reading
• Optional wind / humidity / feels-like row
• A one-row 5-day forecast
• Powered by the OpenWeather API (bring your own free key)

Two things I wanted together and couldn’t find:

• No non-free assets — icons are Meteocons by Bas Milius, bundled under MIT, safe even for commercial use. No icon fonts, no runtime downloads.
• Bring-your-own icons — point iconPack at a folder of PNGs (or a URL) to use your own artwork.

Config is minimal (appid + locationID), no dependencies beyond Node’s built-in https.

Hi all,

Just letting you all know I’ve created a new Snow Forecast module for any avid skiers or snowboarders out there. Shows forecasts from snow-forecast.com and mountain-forecast.com with their interactive elevation switcher and not just a website, it’s downloaded the forecast so very little data traffic/processing power. Hoping it’s working pretty seamlessly but it is my first module and definitely has some oddities still. If anyone has a great desire for me to adapt it to also show surf-forecast.com then can do as well just let me know.

You can turn off and on the colour fills, each row (more are available than the photo shows) and even change the icons around yourself using the css, there are currently 3 built in themes but very easy to create more.

If anyone has info on how to make sure the module ends up in configurators and 3rd party modules that would be great (already added it to the 3rd party module wiki list).

Any feedback let me know,
Howard

Hi,
I recently installed Snille’s Videoplayer and added a list of more than 20 local videos to my MM’s config:

Although I set loop property to “true” the video playback always stops after about two-thirds of the videos. It varies each time, so it doesn’t always happen after the same video.
The system is running on a latest-generation Raspberry Pi 5 with 8 GB of RAM; could this be a memory issue?
Or is there a maximum number of videos?

Side note: also, the autoplay parameter doesn’t seem to have any effect for me. Playback starts regardless of its value. (But that’s fine by me.)

I’d be grateful for any information. Many thanks in advance.

May the code be with you

Hi,

My very old monitor died that I was using for mm. I picked up a new one that supported touch. I’ve been using MMM-ImagesPhotos for quite a while, and wanted to take advantage of my new touch display. So chatgpt and I hacked an update together. This allows tapping the screen to pause and swipe left or right to move forward or back through the list of images.

This required quite a bit of change and am not sure whether this should be a fork or pull request. I hoping @sdetweil could let me know which way to go.
