    @Docjump I am using both and the temperatures are quite close, difference is most of time below 0.3 °C. I don’t know which value is the more relevant one. And in some cases (sun directly over the Netatmo sensor) the difference is greater but the weather API seems the reliable one in this case.

    @Rags can u send me the module_list file from the backup the package-lock.json message is noise. sadly we can’t suppress those UUID message. this is a sign that the module hasn’t been updated in a while. there is no telling what the impacts of the update might be. there are breaking changes everywhere. I strongly recommend ignoring the messages. I don’t see any issue in the pm2 setup during install. I ask it for the command IT thinks it needs to execute, and then I execute that command. same as u did manually I will get the os level u used and test, thanks. there is no good way to test for module eol, as only 1 developer uses that term lots of modules have been abandoned, but still work. on the not copied files (token.json, env…) I might have an idea there.

    I recently bought an ACER HA240Y monitor (https://www.displayspecifications.com/en/model/8d8f1615) for my Magic Mirror. I wanted to install the monitor in my frame in portrait mode. However, The display settings of the Pi OS are unable to identify the monitor and i am unable to find the drivers for the monitor in the Raspberry Pi OS. I am not able to proceed further to flip the display from landscape to portrait. Is there any way in which this can be resolved. Thanks

    Hi everyone, I’m trying to recreate my PiClock display within MagicMirror and so far it’s been great except for weather. I can’t really find a module that will print out the conditions of the day. Like below: [image: 1678744440193-16fdfbf0-ff85-478b-bc77-24a5bf7b9678-image.png] Is there any modules out there that can do this? For example the “Rain in the afternoon and evening” text is what I’m looking to recreate. This is also wonderful for Snow, it will tell me how many inches to expect. Is there anything out there that can do this? Thank you

    @Xilef Just checked the other post. The Sketch i gave to you does not use any AsyncTCP libraries so there needs to be some different problem in your case. If you still use ArduinoIDE to flash the boards you will have received some updates of the ESP core packages in the last time. Maybe there was fixed a problem and cause of the reflash the changes got active now.

    for clarification: it doesn’t matter if you update or not. With the updates you have a new readme file (which is irrelevant for the install) and improved thai language files (only relevant if you use thai language).

    @Rags Yeah, the only real potential downside is that smartTV’s may or may not handle Poweroff or standby requests properly, and in the event of a loss of power, may or may not come back on automatically. Other than that, they tend to be a lot cheaper than monitors but just as good. Heck, if you can find a cheap 4k tv, probably even better than typical PC monitors!

    hi @alphabeta77 I haven’t come across any end-to-end solutions that sound like what you’re looking for. But maybe you could duct-tape some existing building blocks together and get to where you wanted? For instance a google search shows up some details for Raspberry Pi Photo Booth projects that you could follow. Like https://github.com/pibooth/pibooth (no affiliation, just has a link to a wiki so maybe the documentation is helpful). You might be able to learn enough from what’s there to integrate PhotoBooth functionality into your Magic Mirror (and include some hardware in your mirror build - at least a PiCam and a button I guess - to trigger taking a photo and perhaps save it to a local directory)? Then there must be some MagicMirror Modules you could try out that would display random images from your local directory - at a configurable delay - maybe like https://github.com/miccl/MMM-Random-local-image and then you’d have images from your gallery of outfits shown on your mirror. (again no affiliation to this one either, just another google result) Hope this helps, if you try it let us know how you get on : )

    @karsten13 thanks for the reply. I didn’t think it was possible, but I will certainly open up an issue and see what happens. Thanks again

    An updated release of MirrorCommand is available at https://gitlab.com/doctorfree/MirrorCommand/-/releases/v4.0.1r1 Version 4.0.1 Release 1 of MirrorCommand replaces the use of module MMM-DarkSkyForecast with module MMM-OpenWeatherForecast. Apple bought DarkSky and is removing free access to the API. See the MirrorCommand README for additional info. The Mirror Command Line project provides scripts to enable command line control of the MagicMirror system over a local network. The MirrorCommand Debian and RPM format package installation scripts perform automatic installation and configuration of a MagicMirror including: Automated installation of the MagicMirror software if not already installed Automated configuration of the MagicMirror Automated installation and configuration of several MagicMirror modules PM2 process manager installation and configuration Semi-automated key management to enable a single source for adding, storing, and managing the several keys necessary to activate many MagicMirror modules Hundreds of MagicMirror configuration files preconfigured with layouts for both portrait and landscape mode displays and module activation The mirror command can be installed on your MagicMirror to issue MagicMirror commands. Currently the command line MagicMirror control scripts include support for: Specifying the MagicMirror configuration file to activate Starting, stopping, and restarting the MagicMirror Display of various system info Temperature Memory Disk Usb Network Wireless Screen List active/installed MagicMirror modules List available MagicMirror configuration files Rotate the MagicMirror screen Get or set the brightness level Control MagicMirror video playback Start/Stop video play Replay video Play next video Hide video playback module Show video playback module Control the MagicMirror audio output volume level Get MagicMirror status Update the MagicMirror installation or update installed modules Auto generation of new MagicMirror configuration files Interactive mode via menu dialogs Invoked with no arguments the mirror command displays a command menu. MirrorCommand has been successfully deployed and tested on a Raspberry Pi 4 and Raspberry Pi 400 running Raspbian Buster. It has also been deployed and tested on Ubuntu Linux 20.04 and Fedora Linux 35 with generic x86_64 hardware.

    I spent the last three days rebuilding my mirror with a new SD card. Same of the apps were not compatible with the new mirror os. I had to do a lot of relearning. [image: 1672325215311-img-1789.jpg]

  • Default Calendar: Display Birthdays, Anniversaries

    Update: found it how to export also the birthday calendar (this only works by exporting ALL your calendars at once, but not on the birthday calendar itself). And anyhow - that didn’t solve my issue - because the exported birthday calendar has each of the birthdays as 3 single events (birthday from last, current and next year), but it’s not a yearly event-series. So using this exported file once wouldn’t help much on my MM - after 2 years all the birthdary events would be gone again. I will use a workaround now: I will create a separate calendar, where I enter all the birthdays manually (as yearly events). This calendar will then have a public address, and I can include it as separate calendar in MM.
