@sdetweil Hahh, of course how could I not see that button…

@adamambarus great… now, suddenly (been running for near 2 years) MY mqtt server cannot be reached from outside the docker host… SO much fun…

Awsome! This changes a lot in my “config”, my Mirror(s) are tightly integrated with Home Assistant.
Thank you for this module!!

I’m currently running 3 different mirrors, but two of them are “mixed” with each other in HA, the third (first one) are separate :). I’ll have to do some more investigating. Have you tested with multiple mirrors against one “HA-MQTT”?

Again, thank you for this! :)

Update: I did some cleaning in the MQTT-queue (with MQTT Explorer) and now it all works. I got to have had my config(s) mixed at some point during my testing. So, now it’s all good. :)

@Snille Wow, I am so glad to hear it. I made a test with my real MagicMirror, and a dummy one running on a linux laptop. At this point I added a real uniqueID for the HA device config jsons.

Hmm, alright!! I will try to think of a handling in case two MM instances want to connect with the same device name. That is the only attribute left on the user.

I’m just here to say “Thank you” - installed the module yesterday and after some struggling with my MQTT Backend all is working :)

Just to be clear, this is meant to allow you to control the MM from HA, not display HA info on the MM, right?

sdetweil

@UncleRoger correct MMM-HomeAssistantDisplay
will display info from ha

Would you see a chance to include a “sensor” that shows whether an update for a module is available? Right now the sensor on updates can only “hide” the update message on the mirror.

With an update sensor, I could get a message on my phone and at least trigger the update remotely with the MMM-Remote module.

Thanks anyway for this great module.

I found a display (touchscreen) to setup a family dashboard and i`m making babysteps to get it going again after a long time of trying out MagicMirror

I did get this module to work and most of the buttons in HomeAssistant work, but since i`m using a GigabyteBrix debian12 pc the screen off and on does not work.

This however is working to get the screen on/off

apt install vbetool

root@debian:~# sudo vbetool dpms off
root@debian:~# sudo vbetool dpms on

root@debian:~# cat /etc/sudoers.d/magicmirror
magicmirror ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/vbetool

root@debian:~#

So i changed the on off command to

/usr/bin/sudo /usr/bin/vbetool dpms off
/usr/bin/sudo /usr/bin/vbetool dpms on

But it stops working as soon as i start the MagicMirror using PM2 and i`m not sure why.

Are there any other options?
