      Take a look at the stock ~/MagicMiror/config/config.js.sample file. That should give you a good start.

      A Life? Cool! Where can I download one of those from?

        im stuck at this part of the facial recognition tools - “Write down the [‘name’, ‘name2’,‘name3’] part because you will later need it for setting up your mirror’s face recognition.” , Where do i find those names ? i see a folder has been created in the training data , but training.xml doesnt have any names

            Hello,
            I just discovered this project and i want to try this module before to build my MagicMirror !!!

            i’ve got a problem with the facial recognition tools…
            i use a usbcam, i try with fswebcam without problem, i enable the webcam in raspi-config but when i try capture.py, i’ve got a error

            Capturing positive training images.
            Type c (and press enter) to capture an image.
            Press Ctrl-C to quit.
            c
            Capturing image...

              @lepetitnicolas To my knowledge , capture .py only works with the built in webcam , that is , the pi camera module . Plus , if you are already taking images via fswebcam , why not just select option 2 in capture.py, the one with using already existing .jpg files ? Why capture again ?

                    @lepetitnicolas the array personen(really need to translate that into english :D ) should be personen = ["Gael"] else it will look for a variable called Gael which does not exist.

                    We're all stories in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?

                      @lepetitnicolas you will see the names as an output to running the train.py file , in the terminal window itself , copy paste from " [ " to "] " and save it. Place this text in personen as mentioned by @paviro and also place it in the config.js file . Hope this clears things up

                              Make sure to install all dependencies as stated in the README file! Use npm install for that. As you can see in you error log python-shell is missing.

                              We're all stories in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?

                                      @Wilco89 yup , just set ‘useUSBcam’ to false in the config.js file and also make sure your pi has camera module enabled via the configuration of your pi

                                        @sarthak18593 I could figure it out myself. But i knew some people already working with this module. So they would know that. Only need to activate my camera now.
