@lornetw I think the answer is no, because calendar EXT 3 gets its data from the default calendar and we don’t scan back that far. now what you could do is do week view instead of month view and then have the prior two weeks or the prior week and 3 weeks showing so you’re always looking forward two weeks and seeing last week that way you never fall off the end of a month

@oldrocker You can consider “Wide viewing angle”. Usually, an IPS panel is regarded as better than a VA panel or TN panel horizontally, seeing up to ideally 178deg max, but vertically, all panel types would have 30 ~ 40 degrees max. Only for viewing angle, a panel of TV could be slightly better than that of a monitor, but you still have to consider resolutions and readability. (and dimension, weight, construct difficulty, brightness, contrast and color depth, etc, … for your purpose)

@mezcalbomb and again, you can do this on your windows PC for free

Thanks you. I appreciate it.

@Nneuland yeh, that link Made sure I was running updated client and host, and that wayland is NOT running instead of X11, nothing line split and emphasis on NOT is mine

There is a module that works with pages. You can have one page fullscreen the picture and on the other the information. But I did not try that out.

@sdetweil Yeah can’t say I am too sure myself. Thanks for your help

Just bought my mirror everything looked ok when I bought it. A few days later the screen resized and know only fills the middle of the screen. I’ve tried the display setting but to no avail. Can anyone help

The Sams Club near me has SanDisk 128GB uSD cards on clearance for $11.91.

2 Fragen hätte ich dennoch dazu: Lassen sich die Forecast Icons in der erst genannten config (“Module: weather”) soweit ändern, dass sie farbig dargestellt werden können? Und die “Helloworld” Schrift ist mir eindeutig zu klein auf dem Display. Läßt sich dieses ebenfalls ändern?

@Cliff365 Pretty straight-forward. I have Pi 4 connected to an Endpoint to connect 3.3V, Grd, SDA, SCL. From Enpoint I have a short ethernet cable to the Midpoint then another short ethernet cable to my 2nd Endpoint. The description and functionality on Sparkfun’s site made it sound more complicated than it was in real life, The Endpoints and Midpoints each have QWIIC female plugs and with I2C you can daisy chain multiple sensors together. You just have to be mindful of the device addresses. I’m using duplicate sensors for temperature, barometric pressure, humidity for Indoor vs Outdoor readings. 1 sensor captures all 3 readings but it also has a solderable jumper pad to resolve the address issue. The purpose of the Sparkfun devices is to give you the ability to transmit I2C data over some pretty good distances. Like 100+ ft. They explain how they get that amount of distance but way over my electronics hardware pay grade.

@karsten13 not in a passive mirror but for the extended use case with some active click device/mouse, then one can change it.

Hi all, I am a newbie to this channel and to building my new magic mirror, I have purchased a raspberry pie 4 and the rest of my materials and am about to embark on my build. I wanted to know if anyone could help/direct me in where I could find ways to help me show how I can use Netflix and control my Raspberry pie through say my phone once I have built everything and have the mirror hanging on the wall. Any help would be great. Thanks

@Miafrance - This forum doesn’t support that product. Does the manufacturer have a customer forum?

@ankonaskiff17 no the user whos ID I didn’t catch…

Thanks @sdetweil and @MMRIZE , that worked a charm. :-)

@ankonaskiff17 Hi, it’s basically the same but not exactly… apt full-upgrade upgrades all packages and removes old versions of the packages apt dist-upgrade upgrades all packages and removes old versions but it tries to figure out which upgrade is more “worthful” if there are occur conflicts cause of the upgrades apt update updates the locally saved list of available packages by downloading the current package list of all configured repositories apt is the new replacement command of apt-get
