        I forgot to mention that I also have the rpi on a z-wave socket so I can hard reset it if I need to from the Samsung SmartThings app.

        The TV is a TCL and SmartThings has a device handler for it, so when both my girlfriend and I leave the house, the TV turns off, when one of us returns the tv comes back on, it also shuts down overnight and comes back on in the morning. I’m using Webcore on top of SmartThings to do that.

        I also did the same as @zach and added both USB and hdmi into the frame for easy access to the rpi or the tv.

                    You’re welcome, mate. I’m using it myself! Nice work on the mirror!

                      Hello,
                      Super mirror. Very nice finish.
                      What module do you use for the weather?
                      What is the USB / HDMI port for?

                        I’m using MMM-Wunderground for the weather.

                        there’s a USB and HDMI that go into the TV, it’s more for future proofing rather than anything specific… Then there’s another 2 USB that go into the Pi. I’m working on getting a webcam and facial recognition working so probably use one of them for that.

                            @stephenmelody hi very nice. I am in the phase of choosing mirror.
                            Could you send more pics? Both with light and without and with something reflected in it?
                            What is the exact part number / name of the Pilkington mirrror used?
                            Have you integrated the camera ? How did you conceal it in the frame?
                            Thanks for replying

                                @mykle1 :-) ok. Anyway. I had not seen the pics from the mobile .
                                I think I will finally settle for a raspiecam and embed it in the frame .
                                Quality is ok. And lens small.

                                Glass: either guldjugz or mirroview 50 50
