I’m planning on making my sister a magic mirror as a house warming gift, and have been watching videos and reading through the forums to get an understanding of what’s involved. I was hoping give it touch screen but that seemed out of my budget. Then I realized I could use a small touch screen for simple stuff like volume, a keyboard, or to pause and play video, and use a 20" monitor for the main display.

Is this something that has been done before?
If so point me in that direction.
If not, how hard would it be to do?

I have no previous experience with Magic Mirror, Linux. or RPI. So if there is anything out there that is relatively simple, or even better, in a completed state, then awesome. If not, then I’ll go sans touch screen for the time being, until I get a better grasp of this whole process.

Thanks in advance,

Hi, thank you for your reply.

Dual touch IR Overlay Touch Screen Frame Panel Interactive 32" to 82" 16:9 is the description of the item. I spoke with the gentleman before I purchased it and he said it was perfect, my friend brought the same frame and hers is fine. The manufacturer accessed my Mirror remotely and the report showed no errors with the frame so he said it must be a windows problem?

Many thanks
