    @toxeek Just to let you know, I am not part of the core MagicMirror team and my answer is based on my personal interpretation of the situation.

    I wish you every success! 🚀 I would find it interesting if you could tell us about your project later.

    @cowboysdude , you, @mykle1, @sdetweil, are the best. Without yours modules, my mirrors would be less interesting. Congratulations and many thanks for your work!

    @tomy38 and @robiv8
    You can add a local html-file via MM-SmartWebDisplay at the screen as I described here:
    Link Text

    Inside the Iframe-tag add a link to your PDF. For more info google for “PDF in HTML einbinden”.

    @hofhux i didn’t mount it in a cabinet…

    my chromebook is intel…

    i did just crush the screen twice while in the hospital, but they were easy to change… and would be easy to mount I think…

    i would leave as much of the normal guts as possible,…

    Dear MM fallows ,

    I have come across a few Pollen modules , which are only for there own geographical locations , for example the US and Germany, but unluckily I could not find a solution to it for my own location, although I did come across this particular topic :- link text which was a little complicated for me to work on.

    I hope I can come up with some good suggestions or solution to this particular issue, I do thank you in advance.

    Best Regards

    Hello Everyone!!

    I am using MPI3508 3.5" LCD to display clock module.
    I wanted to change the font of the clock module so I went through
    the forums and got the solution. However the font is changed only when I access it from pc browser and remains unchanged incase LCD screen.

    Here’s my custom.css and screen pics…

    @font-face{ font-family:impact; font-style:normal; font-weight:100; src: local("impact"), url("/home/pi/MagicMirror/fonts/impact.ttf") format("truetype") } body { color: #FFF; } .clock .time { font-family: impact; font-size:300px; } #GPHOTO_INFO { display:none; } #GPHOTO_BACK { display:none; } #GPHOTO_CURRENT { background-size:cover; }

    Hi,

    Does it make sense to create a cronjob which

    stops MM turns off wifi turns off xyz
    from for example 12pm to 6am?

    Will this reduce the power consumption effectively?

    Thx

    you can do it with or without docker, thats your choice.

    With docker you have to use different config.js files, they can be placed in the same folder and must be mapped into the right container.

    You could use only one modules folder for all instances by installing all modules there.

    Updating the core is done by using a new docker image (same for all instances).

    The one-modules-folder may also could be established with the classic setup, you could use symlinks from a central place into the modules folder of the several instances (never tested this!).

    @zolabus for 3rd party, if there are updates after u installed it…

    another user had trouble here too.
    turned out they had added a class= string to the module that did not exist…

    @bhepler Two layers of one way glass works better than you might expect. The infinity effect probably isn’t as strong as a standard infinity mirror, but it’s still plenty deep for a good effect.

    SmartInfinityMirror.png

    There are a couple of other issues you run into:
    The first is the type of screen you use. LCD screens have a back-light, which means you see the edge of the screen (if you’re using a small screen like me), or you just dampen the infinity effect if the screen is as large as the mirror. An LED screen doesn’t have a back-light, and therefore works much better.
    The second issue is that you don’t want the infinity effect making your smart mirror text unreadable. I solved this by using blue tinted reflective window tint to make my “one way glass”. (this also helped lower the cost). The blue tint absorbs a bunch of red light, so as long as I make my smart mirror monochrome red, the text stays readable. The false depth from the infinity mirror also creates a pretty cool effect where the text looks like it’s floating in space.

    On your phone, open the Google Home app. In the Home View tab (left-most bottom tab, with the house icon), tap Settings next to the Add shortcut. Tap Home members. Tap the + in the top right corner to add a new home member.

    Hehey,
    New here and just set up a mirrorless version. I would like to have a slide show using images from google photos/drive/blabla and, either depending on which image it is (if (image==“bg_weather.jpg”…), turn on/off modules, or, use some slide show module for 1 loop, and then 10 sec where the slideshow module is off and instead are showing time and weather on some custom background. Pref. fading the modules on/off.

    So the end result in either solution would be no modules showing and only image 1 for 10 sec, image 2 for 10 sec, image 3 for 10 sec … and then 10 sec with no image/custom bg and time and weather module showing. And then back to no modules showing and looping through the images again. New here, so perhaps there already is a solution/module…activator(?) out there, but I just haven’t found it yet.

    Cheers!

    The best way for me to do it was to use node-red. Fantastic program for us newbies with little coding experience. Highly recommended. I’m running it on the pi that is sending the values to the MM pi. Works great.

    Hi Guys,

    I’m new to MM and wasn’t too sure where to post this question, please forgive me if it’s in the wrong forum.

    I’m building a MM to use as a dashboard/control panel in our kitchen and was inspired by a YT video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZzZpRx7Mg1s). The owner is using Android/Dakboard/Fully Kiosk, however I am hoping to use Rpi/MM/Chrome browser (locked down), I’m unable to locate any info regarding using MM as screensaver and when touched defaults to Chrome in locked down mode to my Home Assistant URL and then after a specific time with no activity MM would start again as the screensaver.

    Hoping someone can point me in the right direction and thanks in advance for any advice.
