Hello, I’ve decided to try to build a magic mirror and, since I’m still in the planning stage, my biggest doubt is which Raspberry to buy. On one hand I’d like to get a RPi 5, on the other hand the Raspberry will be on 24/7 and the latest model is power hungry, especially compared to older ones. Also more power means an higher electrical bill and more heat to dissipate (since it will be in a closed frame that’s obviously a problem both because of the enclosed nature of the installation and because of the small space available so I cannot use big heat sinks or fans). Cost is not an issue since RPi4 costs more or less equal to RPi5 If this helps, I plan to use just a few modules: a calendar an IR touch screen some kind of home assistant module to get some data out of HA -(optional) a face recognition module, still debating on this tho. The monitor will be a standard 1920x1080p@60Hz and I don’t plan to do much with MM but these few things (no audio in or out, no AI, no animations). Which Raspberry would work best in my scenario? Is RPi 3B+ too old? Is 4B better? Or do I just go with 5? And, last but not least, how much RAM do I actually need? I don’t want to buy one to find myself in need of an upgrade in 6 month or 1 year. Thank you in advance!

I am working on a project where I want to have 7-9 modules stacked either horizontally or vertically. By default, modules stack vertically. So, if you have three “weather” modules for London, New York, and Toronto, they will look like this: London Weather New York Weather Toronto Weather This would make sense on a vertical/portrait screen, where stacked makes sense. However, if you have a horizontal/landscape screen, you might run out of space, and it might look weird. Having them side by side might make more sense, like this: London Weather | New York Weather | Toronto Weather I spent a non-trivial amount of time trying to override the main.css file’s “flex-drection” settings using the custom.css, but I was unable to do so. I ended up breaking the cardinal rule and modified a file that could be overwritten by future updates. Would it be possible to have somewhere that could be changed in the config.js? Or, is there an easy way to override using custom.css that I was just too brain-fogged to see? Thank you.

Anyone else have MMM-RAIN-MAP all the sudden stop working? It actually locked up my MM . OR do I have to many modules running under MMM-pages? Approximately 48. Rpi 4 8gb ram running water cooler and nvme-sata 128gb power supply is the pi5 version.

I found myself wanting to add a Notion database with a Date field to my MM. I realized Notion did not have an .ics field, and after considering making an applet that could convert the Notion API into an iCalendar feed, I realized I could do it within MagicMirror itself. Introducing MMM-NotionCalendar! This allows you to generate an iCalendar feed compatible with the default Calendar module (and others) from a Notion database. This already supports any named “Name” and “Date” fields, as well as adding any custom filtering on the database. Because this module requires a rather dense URL to operate, I created a simple app to format the URLs for you, hosted in GitHub pages off of the repository. Let me know if there is anything you would want added!

Hey all-- I cannot figure out a way to get the available todo lists to work for my use case, which I feel like must mean I’m missing something. I have a multi-page family dashboard, and I want a separate chores list for each member of the family to appear on their page. These are recurring chores, so they should get refreshed daily. Also, I want to be able to clear tasks with the touchscreen. So far I’ve tried: MMM-Chores. Most excited about this-- has everything I want, except that I can’t display separated task lists on each person’s page. MMM-TodoList. Has separated task lists and touchscreen clearing, but no recurring tasks. MMM-CalDAV-Tasks. Looks like it could do the job, but apparently it doesn’t work with iCloud? I can’t get it to work, and I found active/unanswered threads in GitHub that it’s just not compatible with iCloud. So I’d have to setup a NextCloud server just to use it? MMM-Todoist. No touchscreen check off capabilities. Looks like it’s the same with MMM-GoogleTasks? Is this just such a niche use case that none of the available tools can do this? Or have I missed something? Thanks!

After completely reinstalling my MMM, the MMM-Universal PIR module no longer works for I get the error message GPIOcommand exited with error My configuration is as follows { module: "MMM-Universal-Pir", position: "top_right", config: { gpioCommand: "gpiomon -r -b gpiochip0 17", onCommand: "wlr-randr --output HDMI-A-1 --on --transform 90", offCommand: "wlr-randr --output HDMI-A-1 --off", deactivateDelay: 180 * 1000, } }, The cables are connected with the sixth pin and the first and third pins on the other line. I tried the solution in the here on the bottom but unfortunately I cannot found a compose.yaml. It would be great, if you can help me. Thank you in advance. Klinge

Hello, I just updated my mm, I was 2 or 3 versions late… I am encountering a problem in the default calendar module with the caldav.icloud calendars. I have quite a few errors like this : [2026-01-27 13:57:15.127] [ERROR] [calendar] Moment Timezone has no data for GMT+0100. See http://momentjs.com/timezone/docs/#/data-loading/. I should point out that the calendars are still well displayed by the mirror. Thanks for seeing

How do I go about getting a wizard.mp4 for the module? I do not have the equipment to make one of myself. I would like to have one of Harry Potter or Dumbeldor or Miany. Not sure how to spell them, just know what my wife says she likes… Any help would be appreciated. Maybe some place I can download a premade mp4 I tried a couple I found on line but they will not work. Do they have to be under a certain size?

Hallo, mir werden die automatisierten wiederkehrenden Termine nicht im Kalender angezeigt, Egal ob endlos oder bis zu einem Datum habe schon alles versucht und keine Lösung gefunden. Ich beziehe die ics Datei über MMM-Caldav da ich einen synologykalender habe. wenn ich die ics Datei öffne sehe ich diese Termine die mir im Kalender fehlen vielleicht habt ihr noch eine Idee danke lg Patrick english: (moderator) The automated recurring appointments are not showing up in my calendar, regardless of whether they are set to repeat indefinitely or until a specific date. I’ve tried everything and haven’t found a solution. I’m retrieving the .ics file via MMM-Caldav because I use a Synology calendar. When I open the .ics file, I can see the appointments that are missing from my calendar. Perhaps you have another idea? Thank you.

Newb. Have my MagicMirror2 up and running with a few different modules. I have local weather working with openmeteo. Trying to add a second location (bottom_right) but it stays stuck on “Loading…”. I set up an openweathermap.org API key but I don’t get any weather data using the openweathermap provider for local or remote locations Should I be able to see multiple locations? Current config below. I’ve also tried a copy of the openmeteo modules to get the Brisbane weather but it did not work. I searched for similar issues but couldn’t find anything newer than 2022 and the advice on that post didn’t help. { module: "weather", position: "top_left", header: "Current Weather", config: { weatherProvider: "openmeteo", type: "current", lat: [myLat], lon: [myLong], showPrecipitationAmount: true, showPreciptitationProbability: true, showUVIndex: true, degreeLabel: true, colored: true, } }, { module: "weather", position: "top_left", header: "Forecast", config: { weatherProvider: "openmeteo", type: "forecast", lat: [myLat], lon: [myLong], showUVIndex: true, fadePoint: 0.33, maxNumberOfDays: 6, degreeLabel: true, colored: true, } }, { module: "weather", classes: "brisWeather", position: "bottom_right", header: "Current Weather", config: { weatherProvider: "openweathermap", type: "current", location: "Brisbane, AU", locationID: "2174003", showPrecipitationAmount: true, showPreciptitationProbability: true, degreeLabel: true, colored: true, units: "metric", apiKey: "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx", } }, { module: "weather", classes: "brisWeather", position: "bottom_right", header: "Forecast", config: { weatherProvider: "openweathermap", type: "forecast", location: "Brisbane, AU", locationID: "2174003", showUVIndex: true, fadePoint: 0.33, maxNumberOfDays: 5, degreeLabel: true, colored: true, units: "metric", apiKey: "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx", } },

I am obsessed with the modul checker on the MagicMirror² 3rd Party Modules list… so, i asked github copilot to implement an instant modul checker script. technically it clones the modul checker repo, and the local files to /tmp/mm-modul-checker… and installs the deps. you can find it in recently most active repo: https://github.com/HeikoGr/MMM-Webuntis/blob/master/scripts/magicmirror-check.mjs run it: node scripts/magicmirror-check.mjs and you will get: > mmm-webuntis@0.6.1 check:mm > node scripts/magicmirror-check.mjs 🔍 Setting up MagicMirror checker...
