@rmustard511 no problem, we all have to learn stuff every day

@sdetweil Thanks you for the answer!

@capedbuffethero
the export is used on the MagicMirror system side. it is paired with the
node server execution, which launches MagicMirror without a ui.
then when the server is running, run-start.sh launches a browser to connect to the server

the export has nothing to do with vnc,
it is just used to tell run-start.sh which browser to launch. (on linux, env variables are NOT passed to children processes by default. you have to use the export keyword to enable it, for each env var you want to pass)

if you set the MagicMirror config.js.js to

address:"0.0.0.0", ipWhitelist:[],

then you can use a browser on your phone, Windows, Linux, or Mac system to view MagicMirror directly without vnc

the killed message is because you restarted MagicMirror, and run-start.sh found the server instance running already. so it must be stopped and restarted in case you changed the config

@davidgagne In this case, yes, because the CSI port on the Zero isn’t the standard port… at least the old standard. Now it’s a pair of MIPI connectors for that, so everything’s gotta change again 🤣

Thanks for trying to help me, but I have given up now.

I will just buy a monitor that conforms with standard RPI Raspbian OS

@sdetweil ok hopefully last question and thanks for the help

that wait fetch is that just the first time it checks for calendar info or every time?
and bonus question, what if i set it to 2 minutes…is there any downside to checking more often?

3 calendars in total
28 events
27 events
1404 events (thats the primary calendar)

@Sickdove seems this image will allow debian 12 on sd card…

sd card will have space…

my script should work…

still need node and npm…

server only for sure…

sad that it doesn’t have wifi

managed to pickup a vaha mirror cheap - can it be repurposed to run something else ;)?

@bhepler said in MagicMirror stutters and doesn't run smoothly:

@drx1984 - Yeah, I can. It’s on the list of projects. I don’t know when I’ll get to it. For you I’ll bump it up the priority list a bit. But I don’t have an estimate.

Good morning,
aha ok, thank you very much, yes that would be very good.

@laurent19-giant either will work. 32 is a little smaller in memory consumption

@funkoid hey did you ever find a solution? you are the only other person i thinkl i can find… ill keep scouring!! High Hopes

@1a2a3a said in New 2-way mirror supplier - lower prices and lead times:

@Ivanov_d say 56*26?

Apologies for the delayed reply. The supplier has in a New Year’s break for quite a while and was not responding to me.

The price of a 56x26 cm with polished edges, insured and delivered to Singapore would be 155,37 EUR (65,37 for the mirror and 90 is the shipping)

@KristjanESPERANTO
Thanks you, it’s will interesting.

@redink I don’t use any mirror glass on mine. I don’t need another mirror in the house

My current MagicMirror is an old 40" LCD TV. It’s positioned in area that get a lot of light and is quite hard to read. I am considering rebuilding it with something might brighter. What TV would recommend? Something around 55" would be fantastic.

@ZiggidyZ That could be a good unit… I’d personally take it off the stand if you’re going to put it in an enclosure, and use a low profile vesa mount like this. You could also build up like a mirror project, just use a clear piece of front material in lieu of a 2 way mirror.

Anyone got any recommendations for fonts for E-ink screens? Especially with smaller font sizes.

Running Magic Mirror and Puppeteer to scrape an image to push to a Waveshare 7.5 two colour.

No judgements on the printed frame, got some new filament coming in, but couldn’t wait to see it all fit together!

Frame is a modified version of this to suit a Pi 3B+

@jens19720 Haben Sie Module installiert, die das Display ausschalten, wenn nicht beschäftigt ist oder niemand in der Nähe ist? PIR oder so ähnlich?
