    @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.

    @funkdafied said in Recommendations:

    Sorry for another post can anyone provide example on how to control positioning of the modules? Or is there a module available that can be enabled to show the layouts on screen?

    { module: 'MMM-History', position: 'top_bar', config: { maxWidth: "1050px" } }, { module: "MMM-Cocktails", position: "bottom_bar", config: { maxWidth: "1050px", header: "" } },

    You do that in your config.js file using position:

    These are all the regions:

    Hi
    I did restore my sd card from backup. and start instoling modules. backup only have default modules on it and alexa. Mic icon did not show up until I installed MMM-IMDBComingSoon. Pretty sure last time when I reinstall completely my mm-clock, I have installed something else, different module. I’m not sure which one. Anyway mic show up after i add this module.
    Each time installing new module I reboot device.

    I’m not too sure how helpful this can be for you, also it’s no make any changes the any thing except instilling modules and Adding the module to my config/config.js until mic icon show up.

    modules: [ { module: 'MMM-Remote-Control', // uncomment the following line to show the URL of the remote control on the mirror // position: 'bottom_right', // you can hide this module afterwards from the remote control itself //ipWhitelist: ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "......ip....address..."], ipWhitelist: ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "....ip......address...."], }, { module: 'alert', }, { module: "updatenotification", position: "top_bar" }, { module: 'calendar_monthly', position: 'top_left', config: { } }, { module: 'currentweather', position: 'top_right', config: { location: 'London,GB', locationID: '......................', //ID from http://www.openweathermap.org appid: '.........................' } }, { module: 'clock', position: 'top_center', config: { displayType: 'analog', clockBold: 'true', analogSize: '240px', analogFace: 'face-008', secondsColor: '#bf1a1a', } }, { module: 'weatherforecast', position: 'top_right', header: 'Weather Forecast', config: { location: 'London,GB', locationID: '............', //ID from http://www.openweathermap.org appid: ......................................', onlyTemp: true } }, { module: 'MMM-SystemStats', position: 'bottom_right', // This can be any of the regions. classes: 'small dimmed', // Add your own styling. Optional. config: { updateInterval: 10000, animationSpeed: 0, //header: 'System Stats', // This is optional } }, { module: 'MMM-AlexaPi', position: 'lower_third', config: { alexaTimeout: '15000', alexaHBTimeout: '10000', // The config property is optional. // If no config is set, defualt values are used // See 'Configuration options' for more information. } }, { module: 'MMM-Globe', position: 'bottom_left', config: { style: 'geoColor', // natColor, geoColor, airMass, fullBand, europeDiscNat, europeDiscSnow, centralAmericaDiscNat imageSize: 175, updateInterval: 10*60*1000 } }, { module: 'MMM-IMDBComingSoon', position: 'bottom_left', header: "Upcoming Films", config: { apikey: "......................................................", reloadInterval: 8 * 60 * 60 * 1000, //8 hours dataSwapInterval: 60 * 1000, //1 min animationSpeed: 1.5 * 1000 //1.5 secs } }, ] }; /*************** DO NOT EDIT THE LINE BELOW ***************/ if (typeof module !== 'undefined') {module.exports = config;}

    @Shrike Since I don’t use a cam to my setup I can’t really tell.

    But I guess the easiest is going all Raspberry PI (stock power supply, raspberry camera and a pi 3)

    You could always build a Plex Media Server and then run the webapp for Plex on the Pi your Mirror is running. I think you can even control it through a smartphone (not 100% sure on that though). It is free and the server is super simple to install (I have it installed on my Mac Mini, but there are ways you can install it on a Pi). If you are going the Pi route though, I would recommend doing it on a Pi that is only for that purpose, since it will be doing a lot of work.

    @hartattack said in Fair Warning:

    FYI I got my Mirror back up and running. Started at 6:00PM and just installed the last module at 9:00PM. 3 hours is not bad!

    Lol… well done… i take it that the sd card was ok, and it just simply threw a temper when you tried giving it more work? :-)

    Funny when we think back on how long it actually took us to get the very first module up and running, being a complete Noob eh?

    My next one (next week) will go a helluva lot easier/faster… just C&P from my other config.js and custom.css files ;-)

    Yeah, I have a feeling that during the install for the plex server, it was still writing something to the card in the background when I rebooted. I know in theory that shouldnt happen, but that is my thought. The SD seems fine, although tonight I am going to do a full backup so that I can switch out the SD card soon.

    @cowboysdude said in Another Kickstarter is trying to launch Magic Mirror:

    On another note what this one can do far outweighs ‘paying’ for one. You are limited to what they want you to have where with this one it can be modified, updated and personalized to far better extremes…

    So I’d like to Thank you ALL for the hard work and would rather be here doing this than anywhere else.

    People will always steal ideas from others but like I said in the end this one will far outshine anything retailers can come up with.

    Really this is the reason why I went with this platform. The fact that it is so customizable and there is this awesome community built around it, makes it the smart choice for a smart mirror.

    Hi @rchase, Yes, I’m doing it with a little help from other stuff… :) Using Alexa (Echo Dot) that communicate with a HA-Bridge that then activate profiles (and other stuff) using the module MMM-Remote-Control. Works well. :)

    I plan to use an ODROID-C2 instead of Raspberry Pi 3 for hopefully faster Alexa commands, youtube playing etc.

    I am a bit worried about compatibility, specifically because I am going to use PIR sensor and a DHT22 temp/humidity sensor.

    Has anyone else used the ODROID-C2 for your mirror? Anyone heard of any problems with them?

    Thanks

    Is it the tape below?

    I took the adhesive tape from my company warehouse, we are engaged in glass / aluminum facade construction. Therefore, I do not know the exact order number. The adhesive tape is called “Würth Montageband Power”

    That makes sense. If I want to do more than display a site, like connect a camera and stuff like that, I should use the MM2.

    Thanks for your response

    @dmrowe84 Well, This is going to be so embarrassing. :face_palm: I tried pressing random keys. You know, escape, q, ctrl+x etc. Being the dumb person I am, I didn’t try Alt+F4. Then, I randomly pressed it and it worked. Also when I held Alt for a while it showed different tabs. File and all. Clicked on File and it had Ctrl+q for quit. And there it was. Ctrl+q.
