@oldversions You may have better luck asking this question in another forum like Retropie.

While the standard Retropie setup is a full SD image, I’m sure someone there can lead you in the right direction of installing just the emulators you want without the whole front end.

Also take a look at RetroArch. It creates a minimal front end for many emulators, including NES/SNES. You can pick and choose what emulators you want so you don;t need the whole gamut just to play NES/SNES games.

I work 4 days a week and I’m overpaid.

I need a vacation. :incredibly wicked smiley:

Hi…i was also facing the same issue. So as per my experience you should try one in /home/pi/.config/lxsession/LDXE/autostart but that did not work either. Various googling says the proper way of autostarting scripts in Jessie is systemd but it is overly complicated.

I noticed around the same time that the spammers were causing havoc on the forum that the use of emoticons was disabled. I was hoping they would be enabled again.

:fingers_crossed:

See? That’s just not the same.

Just to let you guys know. Magic Mirror works on screen with Alexa (she can’t seem to do much at the mo though, so more investigating and experimenting is going to be needed :-))) still running in the background or vice versa. Still can’t seem to add modules to the original magic mirror though, Wunderground and carousel!!!).

Hi, everyone!!

About over one year ago i found this forum, because i search for infomation about a interesting project i have seen, called MagicMirror. Now I finisched my magic mirror and I like to start a new project. And because that new project I write this. @MichMich I like your skeletal structure behind the MagicMirror.the art of displaying ,one config file to configure and the option to use modules that can config and display. For my new project I like to create that skeletal structure,too

Maybe you can help me a little bit whit information about the creating process.

Spam Mail you should definitely read these deals, you can certainly not ignore them and by the way earn a lot !!

Hi,
I want to display a .gif while the Raspberry is booting up. I tried this guide (https://yingtongli.me/blog/2016/12/21/splash.html) but it didn’t work.
So now I’m trying to solve this with plymouth, but for some reason I can’t even use the default-themes. Even after selecting any plymouth theme nothing changes. I am using Jessie Lite.

So does anyone know a way to display a .gif during the boot-up?

Thanks!

Nice tie, bro! :-)

Thanks!! I do have some nice ones… :) I don’t like cheap ties…

Thanks Yawns! :) Good info for people to know… you can choose whether to use Notifications or not…

PLUS I’m posting to help get the ‘spam’ posts out of the loop…

@dbaler care to share?

Cool - The R2 Builders Club was also there …

Start with the MMM-Podcast module.

I was wondering what the community thinks about anti-glare layer on the monitor. People, who have built several mirrors will probably know the difference in the two.
So yeah, is the end result better if there’s an anti-glare layer on the monitor or is it better without one?

for sure thanks Eunanibus

Hi, I know that this is an old topic, but I want to tell you, that the Mirror is a really nice tool. It reminds our family to don´t forget important Events, because everyone can edit the calendar.
Also its nice to have some information about the weather.

And - who don´t want some compliments ;) ?
Great project!

That one I will defer on as I don’t do much of anything via ssh so not too sure myself ;)
