@MichMich Perfect! I also didn’t realize you can turn off Auto-lock via Settings these days. Thanks so much for creating this project. I get my mirror tomorrow so that’s when the real fun begins :).

Not at the moment. But you can write a module for that.

@EoF, you can, as an external process, just like everything else. :)

MM² does not need a web server, it’s built in. You need to run it as a 'serveronly' setup though. This is what I did on my unix servers (I have one at the office, and one at home, plus two rpis, all running MM²):

Except for the very first step, all commands should be executed as an unprivileged user. First command needs to be performed as root, or equivalent system user.

Make sure node.js it up to date with at least version 6.0.0 Clone the Github repository (find instructions on manual install here https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/#manual-installation cd into the MagicMirror folder and run 'npm install' Check/Edit the config/config.js file to match your configuration, specifically the port run node serveronly open web browser (anywhere on the network) and visit http://: (for example http://my.cool.server:8080)

Done. As I said, MM² does not require a web server for it to work, it’s built into node.

Thank you very much for your kind words.
You suggestions are very interesting, however, it would hugely depend on what speech/voice recognition engine I end up going for. I dislike the idea of have chrome keys and so I am leaning towards pocketsphinx, which can indeed be coded to allow you to access your RPi.

Depending on how it goes, I will update you frequently! :)

Not compatible as far as I know. MM² structure is completely different.

it’s already done https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/409/mmm-ip

@KirAsh4

Hmmmm good point. I’ve been preoccupied with the software side never thought to check if the touch monitor actually works with the Pi. It’s branded a dell monitor. Will give it a go in the next hour or so

@paviro

Yes yes. Exactly.

I’ve actually stopped updating. So am a few versions behind.

I got sick of updating. Then trying to fix all the modules that broke during update.

There’s also a heap that aren’t documented and are hard to find.

Some need to be installed manually instead of thru the admin panel or they don’t work.

Some that are supposed to show in plugins list never appear.

Have same issue as you.

If my forum was large enough I would pay for their hosting service and let them deal with it.

Luckily some good people on their forum that help out with questions.

Why do you have to use Google or Apple? Just find a tool that can export ics files and you are fine :)

Hi there,
Are there any MagicMirror builders located in Berlin who are interested to meet some day?

Cheers,
Paul

@MichMich but that is also extra work but it is an option.

Check out these mirrors to see how things will look…

What better way to do testing with a touch sensor than to use alerts? Except, this touch sensor got a bit testy with me. :)
(video capturing on the rpi isn’t particularly good, but you get the idea)

@MichMich :(

I’m new here, and haven’t gotten around to posting up my new forum member post. But I just happened to come across this deal on Amazon (US). Thought I’d share, maybe it is a good deal to make a magic mirror?

Seems like a good deal, it’s $120 for a 32 inch LED TV AND it comes with the Amazon Fire Stick and it’s Amazon Prime. I’ve been wanting to get a Fire stick anyways, so I’m thinking I might get this just to have a cheap 32" TV. Since the Fire stick goes for about $40, you’re basically getting the TV for $80. Deal or no deal?

Remind me to learn how to program it to respond to “Mirror, mirror on the wall, ”

You could probably look into this and making a script every time RPi is power cycled, a CEC command is sent to the TV via HDMI cable.
This script could be executed if the RPi is restarted.
