@mlcampbe That did it! Thanks! I did edit the ~/.config/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart according to the Configuring the Raspberry Pi instructions. It didn’t mention the desktop disappearing though.

@yawns Damn - it can all be so simple. I wasn’t aware there was a zoom factor in the game. It works and it all fits on the mirror again. Solved - Many thanks

i just reduce the magic windows with Ctrl-M, then i open a new terminal windows

MMM-SleepWake does all the MM stuff to turn of hdmi or monitors if you can (I have to hide modules as my TV’s wont’ turn off) Motion is the thing that reads the webcam and signals events to MMM-SleepWake. i didn’t want to write code to manage a few hundred different webcams… and settings and … u name it. motion does all that… (and if u want video snapshots or little recorded sequences… all handled, or emailed, or…) I do not know on the camera behind the mirror… that would be something to test out the sensitivity I started with the webcam as motion detection, cause the 1st mirror app was voice based, so needed a mic…

my bad @ninjabreadman said in {HowTo} turn on/off your monitor (Time based, PIR/Button, App): @E3V3A Some monitors, but almost all television displays turn off after delay (and then cannot be woken in software). i will put a relai on GPIO and it will work at start( when my run button is pressed) it will shut off and shut on the monitor /solved

@sdetweil Sorry I thought you guys saying about “currentweather” module.

@SammyJankins That is not so easy at this moment. Because, PPL can have several spotify devices at a same time. That one device is closed doesn’t mean all devices are inactive. Maybe it could be done by checking status of all devices per each seconds (Spotify API doesn’t push its status to client, so client should be pulling data when it is needed). Currently this module is already pulling playback data per each seconds, I’m not sure whether good to add device scanning additionally. It might make double of API using.

@michael5r Hi there Michael. Maybe (or most definitely) i have done something wrong because everything works fine on my mirror with MMM-assistantmk2, google api etc… but when i go to my google home app, it doesnt find any new devices. Obviously i´ve used the same email in both places, so any ideas where could it be the mistake?? thanks

Hi all, I’ve got the facial recognition working. However not all modules seem to work properly when activated for a user. For example the google route when activated for a user displays a zoomed out view of the whole of europe when activated for a specific user. If I however also add it for the ‘default’ class, it functions properly (both default and the specific user it’s activated for). I would however only like to display that module for a specific user only. Same goes for the compliments module. It only functions properly when it’s also added to the ‘default’ class. The calendar module, works perfectly fine when displayed only for a specific user. Anyone faced similar issues and found a solution? Kind regards, Jorg

is there anyway these can be added to the installation to install the latest versions? npm WARN grunt-stylelint@0.10.1 requires a peer of stylelint@^9.0.0 but none is installed. You must install peer dependencies yourself. npm WARN acorn-jsx@5.0.1 requires a peer of acorn@^6.0.0 but none is installed. You must install peer dependencies yourself. lodash@4.17.5 is also shown as a vulnerability with every install and update. Just curious as having the current versions of all the dependencies upon install may alleviate some of the issues some users have with updates and initial installs.

Got it working by changing two lines in node_helper.js (changes in bold). Line 4: const {PythonShell} = require(‘python-shell’); Line 11: const pyshell = new PythonShell(‘modules/’ + this.name + ‘/facerecognition/facerecognition.py’, { pythonPath: ‘python’, mode: ‘json’, args: [JSON.stringify(this.config)]});

try going to the service station. they help. or use TechyHost.com Or try reinstalling raspberry. Regards.

@dxfan227 said in Is There Anyway to Have the default calendar module only broad cast events occurring on the current day?: but not broad cast them oh… you would have to change the code for that

a workaroudn to solve this problem was identified here: https://github.com/eouia/MMM-AVStock/issues/7#event-2257397757

@ianperrin thank you for helping out. I followed the instructions and now the icons are showing.

Thanks @sdetweil had to remove all the .json/locks and the .git after I had to enable show hidden files as I couldn’t find same. You da man Sam.

@Quesada said in Modules icons: Another solution i found is “updating” font awesome icons from 4 to 5. https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/8776/update-font-awesome-to-version-5 but the problem is when i start MagicMirror it takes a long time to load and some modules do not load well. The method in that post was a way of getting FA5 icons in Magic Mirror before version 2.6. So should not be needed in 2.6 or 2.7. If you do use it, you will load multiple versions of font awesome in the same webpage - which is not recommended and can cause unknown issues. In 2.7, module developers requiring FA icons should use the getStyles method as per the documentation. MM will take care of ensuring only one link to the fa library is included. Unfortunately, 2.6 allowed a module to require fa4 or fa5 resulting in multiple versions of FA on your mirror. This should be fixed in 2.7

@thedoorsfanatic Just gave it a go in both the MM directory as well as in general [image: 1554478609655-20190405_103411.jpg]

@sdetweil thanks, that’s what I thought. I am starting a second mirror for me that when I installed MM was the new version automatically it seems.

@petrpls I know this is old but did you ever find a solution? Looking at the config you posted…it looks like you have removed the # signs to uncomment you code?
