      I like this idea! It would be pretty simple to buy one of those DVDs, rip the video you want and then load it onto your mirror. Play the image in a module, possibly with some basic timer & looping controls.

      I would think some of the ghostly apparition ones would work best. Just have something staring at you out of the mirror for a bit and then fade away.

        I like it! What about the zombie invasion DVD on the MM, every day when a new Walking Dead episode is online on netflix? :D

          Excellent idea, we still have a month to finish this, so it is ready for Halloween. ;)

          Would be best, if we can avoid the proprietary content though, and find something that can be distributed together with the module free for everyone to use.

              I am not (yet :) ), but this seems to be a good starting place:

                @Jopyth Awesome!

                We’re hosting a Halloween party, so this would be great to have running through the night!

                  Do we have a generic video file playing module?

                      I’m hunting for anything we can use, here is another paid product, pretty sweet though since it’s in a format for being displayed as a door window, similar to our mirror.
                      So still good for looking at ideas, but nothing free yet…
