@bhepler Thanks a lot, i’ll keep you up todate :-)

I learned how to hang it on the wall. Check lots of information and find out the 3 easiest and most effective methods:
Method 1. Use frameless mirror hangers
Method 2. Use mirror putty Method 3. Use adhesive tape
All you need is to use them and help from some tools to get more.

@magmar hey, you’ve done great detective work :) Yes, I removed the frame to be able to attach monitor as closest as possible to the glass.
As you know, casing could be very different from solid 1-3cm wide borders to frame-less with almost no edges.
I agree best solution would be to find the same monitor I checked local classifieds but I can’t find the same model so I’ll choose one which has closest dimension and give a try. If height is smaller than my wooden frame I’ll find a way to fix it. If it’s larger then I’ll have to sand down if it’s possible.

@rubelahamed and the questions are?

@Kostosso not outdated…

pm2 (node process manager) job is to start (at boot too) AND keep running any number of processes

you can define the process in a json file (so you can have a pretty name vs the name of the script/executable)
see the pm2_MagicMirror.json on my scripts site for the model I use in the install script
or pm2 start xxx.sh (bash scripts MUST have .sh extension) if u start them directly)

you can start your browser and also the python script with pm2…

UPDATE!
Hello everyone. I would like to tell you that I just migrate from Rasberry pi 3B+ to Rasberry pi 4B 4GB. I just want to tell you that It worked perfectly by just instering the SD from the old pi

Hi all,

any experience with Saint Gobain mirrors? It’s the only one I can find locally. Attached specs. I’m told is 6+4mm thick.

mentioning the expert, seeking your thoughts!

@Goldjunge_Chriz

@krocaq see my comment here , you can do it with ONE directory
https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/17239/two-display/2?_=1663555322286

UPDATE!
From a quick search I have done I decided that it is better to connect arduino and led strip on the same power supply. My led strip is a 3m ws2812b neopixel with 30pixels/meter which consume 60mA/pixel in full brightness so (60*90)/1000=5.4A. The power supply I am using is 5V - 6A so I think it anough for both since arduino’s only job is to send data to led strip. Please If someone has better knowledge of electricity correct me. Thank you.

@korey_sed so they are not making the 4k support available to outside (their function) users…

@sdetweil even better! Then it’ll run on many more operating systems!

@Reif frame has an external connection box. for HDMI connections, don’t know how big it is.

one is 5 inches tall

but maybe some are smaller

the one I have on my 2017 82in tv is fairly small, thin

@hesspoint Update: There is actually a custom HA integration that is awesome: https://github.com/sindrebroch/ha-magicmirror

So I switched form the REST API to that integration and it is even better

@sdetweil No problem. I will visit the store again when he has the glass to see it myself and if it is possible to see it working. After I will make up my mind.

@sdetweil Thank you for your reply. I’ll post again on their forum.

@Fozi I’m using the psu that came with the RPi 3B+. I have no extension cables. The only things I have attached is the HDMI monitor, Bluetooth keyboard and the SD chip. I wouldn’t think that would be too much for standard psu I’ll take a look at Amazon and get something with a little more umph. Thanks all for the lessons. Dennis

@doctore Ok, I’ll try to see if that works, thankyou!

@sdetweil

Ok was looking around for one of those chromebox deals and saw those… Will keep shopping…

@N6NG You might also want to try pololu.com if you are looking to connect to the header on your existing Pi. This is link to their connector page
