    @Mykle1

    Thanks very much for the info, much appreciated.

    Yeah 20 modules was just a ball park, as there would only be a certain amount that I think would be appropriate for him, and for it to be placed in his reception, and edited to suit.

    Good to know this is doable so i can showcase as much as I think he would like, so he could ponder on what his finished MM will have.

    You say you tweeked the MMM. Voice? I take this is just through normal css, and such eh? And not something you have added/altered into the module itself?

    I did try, as others before me did also, and failed… to get the microphone working through the Pi and Alexa, but gave up for the same reason you just mentioned, so will try that module through my PC MM build ( thanks to your tutorial on that)

    For now I shall get and play about with carousel to see what I can do there, and pop back if I have any problems/additional points I need help on… so once again, many thanks for your info here, its gave me incentive to make this demo look as smart as I can for this guy to see what all my praise was about… and if you have any tips/pointers re-MMM.Voice, i’m all ears .

      You could install as many as you like as long as they are not all enabled at the same time. That’s the beauty of Carousel and/or RemoteControl.

      No, I made some personal modifications to the MMM-voice module itself for some extra functionality that I needed. :-)

      I never tried Alexa but I do know that some people struggled with those modules. Recently, a friend of mine here on the forum made some corrections to the awesome-alexa documentation and posted the fix somewhere, making it easier for that to be installed.

      PC MM build! Now you’re talking my language. I enjoy installing MM on many different machines under different OS’es. I’m currently working on a Core 2 Duo iMac installation on top of it’s native OS that is presenting me with some problems but I hope to be successful with that. If/and when I complete that I will likely do a tutorial on that as well.

        @Mykle1 I’m curious about the modifications you did to mmm-voice

        Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

          That is a mistake on my part. The modifications I made were to the AlarmClock module because mmm-voice seems to be disabled while the AlarmClock is ringing.

          As you know, AlarmClock uses the alert module. The alert module comes to the forefront when the AlarmClock rings and all other modules are inaccessible until the alarm is reset. I don’t have a touch screen so I needed a way to reset the AlarmClock module manually. First, I disabled the alert module. That solved the problem of accessing the AlarmClock but still left me with resetting the alarm manually.

          Also. I wanted all modules hidden (by mmm-voice) until the alarm rings. This created another problem for me. The alarm would ring but all modules would remain hidden and mmm-voice will not accept the “SHOW MODULES” command while the alarm is ringing.

          So, my answer to this was to disable the alert module, add a “SHOW MODULES” command the the AlarmClock module when the alarm fires to show all modules, and add a clickable button to the AlarmClock module that resets the alarm manually.

          I am working on modifying mmm-voice, too, but that is slow going because I am learning this stuff as I go along. My old brain keeps asking me, “Why the hell are you doing this, Mykle?”

            @Mykle1 That may solve my problem with it not working on the big mirror too… haven’t looked into it yet but was thinking about modifying it to work as a ‘timer’ of sorts for cooking :) Awesome work @Mykle1!!
