      @andyloop I’m pretty sure a module already exists to integrate with Home Assitant. Check here for a list of all the available modules: https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/wiki/3rd-Party-Modules

      As for running multiple clients against a single server, this is certainly possible, but not all of the modules are designed to handle multiple instances. It’s hit or miss in this regard. Your safest approach is to have full client and server on each mirror you wish to build.

        Hello thanks for the information.
        I would be most pleased about a face recognition.
        All in all, the mirror is supposed to display personal comments. All around, the standard modules should be displayed. Incorporate Eventeull Home Assistant for the housing status indicator. Light and heating.
        I think it would be best that there is a Hauptserver, since I have already run a Win 7 computer and eventeull then also a Web UI. Which modules then nciht run I would have to test. just thought that the Pi as a client does not have to do so much to cope with everything. Just retrieve and even the detection runs smoothly.

          I think in a separated client-server setup, it might actually make facial recognition a bit more difficult. You’ll want to offload all of the image processing to the windows machine which is assumedly faster at that task. You’d want to write you own library to do the image capture on the Pi and send it to the server for the recognition processing, and to in turn to wait for the appropriate response to signal MagicMirror. Also not sure what facial recognition libraries exist for windows, so it’s going to take some research.

          Home Assistant doesn’t need to run on the same physical pi as the mirror. That can be its own standalone Raspberry Pi, and the HomeAssitant module can integrate with it.

            Oh, I somehow sorted it wrong the whole time.
            heist Home Assistant I can put on the Windows 7 computer to relieve the teuil the PI.
            I can only set up Magic Mirror with magic Mirror² and then install the desired modules and then run them completely independently.
            PIR sensor to switch on motion and camera to detect everything placed on the PI.

              Hello.
              So I thought. I think in order to keep things running smoothly I would build the following.

              A Pi3 for Homeassistent.
              And a PI3 only for Magic Mirror.

              So everyone has their own system for working. Everything else is then networking.

              So I could build my 2 mirrors then only need all the information.
              As already mentioned. if I have everything on a device and then attach clients could be difficult if jemadn in the bathroom in front of the mirror and in the hall in front of mirror. In addition, I suspect that then the system could hang.
              The Win 7 offers, although it is always on and has enough power but could crash everything then nothing works.

              So it comes for the time being 2 Pi3 if that works then another for the bathroom. I think that is the most meaningful

                Hello. So now I realize that I’m a bit rusty. Must read in a lot. But find nothing suitable.

                Everywhere I look the cofigutration.yaml looks different than mine. to which I have tried to connect Plex. In WebUI was already the default in it, unfortunately I have there probably a mistake in the password. now I’ve been trying to find this confog. Without success. Exactly as I make change in Home Assistant does not seem to notice.

                Weather and such things I can not change nciht. The map for tracking is gray. Seems as if it is not available. Somehow I have some hurdles to overcome and I can not really keep up. Do not want to constantly reinstall and re-link everything. does jemad have an idea what I’m doing wrong?
                thank you all and happy holidays

                  @andyloop Maybe you’re trying to do too much at once. Solve one thing at a time before moving on to something else. Start with the standalone modules that don’t need integration with other devices, such as weather and maps. If they are coming up blank, then I’d look to see if the network / wifi config is working properly on the Pi. If networking is not working then nothing will work except time display and compliments.

                    @andyloop Hey Andy! It seems to me that your project is a bit difficult for you. How about making a “simple” mirror to start with? You can always upgrade it and install new things in the future.

                    Merry Christmas!

                      just so you know for sure, YES, MM will run on Windows. It is what I use, I don’t have a RasPi.

                        Hello, Merry Christmas to you. The Magic Mirror project is not there yet. I first set myself to Home Assistant. The integration of the individual components was not difficult. I have only s.konfig problems. I find nothing like it is to be fidnen in the internet. It must be possible to change the access data of Plex again.
                        My current plan is to have the home assistant working properly. then the mirror will turn on. the headline is not quite fit because I want to get started piece by piece.
                        My hardware is a Pi3 via LAN cable on the router. As a router, I use a fritzbox 7590. I installed Home Assistant with the HASS.io image. OR. Flash the map, the rest of the installation takes all alone and can already find a lot of my hardware. Somehow the config just looks different and Home Assistant does not seem to understand what I’m telling him. I’ll play it all over again and try again.
