Drrrrums, please! My first MagicMirror.

@Stoffbeuteluwe Thanks for the compliments.
Yes, this is the MMM-Podcast2 module, which loads the “Tagesschau in 100 Sek.” video podcast and displays it via the omxplayer. So it displays a video, but it is no live TV stream.
You also need to have MMM-Buttons and MMM-Remote-Control installed to use it. Standalone the module will not work.

Note: the video is not running inside the electron wrapper, but is overlayed over the desktop.

@Fozi sorry to be a constant pain but what are your thoughts on using a led TV instead of the VA monitor?

Fozi

@bachoo786 Well, I think a LED TV instead a VA monitor could be an equally good choice.
I have here on my desk an elder Samsung 22" LED TV, which I use a a second monitor and for development of my MM setup. The contrast is great and I had this monitor used for my MM. But I decided to keep it, due to the TV function.

Maybe you checkout this recent thread, where the TV option was discussed, too?

Looks great.

May i ask how you got MMM-withings to work? When i go to their site at step 4, i just get this error :(

Client id not authorized

Fozi

@Alloc Thank you!
I got MMM-withings working just as described in the Redme.md. Double check if you use the CLIENT-ID at the very end of the URI in step 4 and the correct callback address you registered.

The most tricky part cemes later in steps 7/8/9 when you have to copy the token, insert it into the tokens.json file, save it and restart MM…all within 30 seconds. Probably, you’ll have to repeat these three steps a few times before you see the fist time your graphs.

Oh, and another note: The refresh token is valid for 4 hours only. That means if you shutdown your MM for more than 4 hrs and start it then again, then you have to repeat all steps 4-9 again.:unamused_face:

@Fozi Thanks.

I will try again tonight and see if i can get it authorized. I never could get past that part of the setup

@Fozi hattest du Probleme mit dem Warnwetter Modul mit den icons ?
Bei mit haben auf einmal alles icons auch die vom Wetter einen schwarzen Hintergrund den man sieht wenn man ein wallpaper hat.

Fozi

@Stoffbeuteluwe bei mir gibt es keine Probleme mit den icons, da wird alles korrekt angezeigt. Allerdings benutze ich kein Wallpaper.

Stoffbeuteluwe

@Fozi Ok Danke

Hi @Fozi ,

how happy are you with your mirror glas choice? Thinking about also ordering the chrome spy from glas-star. I will also place it in a bathroom with lots of daylight, does it pass the wife test in terms of not being to dark in what it reflects when you watch yourself in the mirror?

Beste Grüße,
