<![CDATA[2 Display Mirror for more views]]>Hi all,

i´m new in this world and proud to show you my first mirror.
It took really long time to find the way to program all this stuff but this forum is really great. you can find everything you look for.
Many thanks to all people.

I took 2 old displays (22" vertical and 24" horizontal). All is powered with a Pi 4b and a integrated PIR sensor to turn on/off the mirror.
The frame i made by myself…that was also new experience for me :-)

Hi. Thats right. i only use 1 Pi4 to serve both displays via 2 MM instances. first the originally MagicMirror directory and the second in a MagicMirror2 directory. Both powered up via PM2 and turned off and on via PIR sensor.

The config looks like this:

language: “de”,
logLevel: [“INFO”, “LOG”, “WARN”, “ERROR”],
timeFormat: 24,
units: “metric”,
electronOptions: {fullscreen:true, x:1920},

1920 is the resolution witdh of the main display.

Very easy to handle and good for the electrical consumption :-)

after the var config, add the electronOptions

var config={
  electronOptions:{
          x:????
  },

where ??? is the width in pixels of your 1st display
mine is 1920 or Pi4 3840.
users that want them stacked (one on top of the other)
should try
y:???
where ??? is the height of the 1st display
instead of x

I run my mm like this all the time so I can work w my editor on main and mm on secondary

I have two displays but it’s showing as one screen and I can start mm only on first display.

I see only one rpi with two hdmi… how do you control on magicmirror software position of modules and only one module reversed? On future I’d like to try it too…
My compliments!!!

The rear shot … is the top there to the top of the mirror … or is the top of the rear the bottom of the mirror?
