@strawberry-3-141 and I are working on a voice command module that includes default voice commands. Among the default ones, I plan to add changing mirror settings option that can be controlled through voice. It can include most of what you requested. Here’s a video showing the current progress.

@ronny3050, please don’t cross-post your messages. Each category will reset and display at the top of the Recent page. Having the same thing posted multiple times will just become noise across all the categories.
A Life? Cool! Where can I download one of those from?

I apologize for that. Sorry for any inconvenience!

@ronny3050 @KirAsh4 It’s relevant to the conversation though?
-
Wow, that looks promising. Hopefully both will be implemented, page and your module. Great job !
-
@Mitchfarino I thought that as well, hence I posted because I wanted to let OP know that I could incorporate this into the voice module and hear his thoughts on whether that will help.
Thank you @darkeagl105! As far as the page goes, from my side, I can show a settings page when activated using voice commands that will display the settings and can be changed. -
@darkeagl105 I like this idea, it would be great if it served it’s own page so you could access it from another device like your phone to set up the MM2.

That is what I was thinking of.
For it a default module that always shows the IP you need to connect to.
But one thing after the other. -
On short term, I won’t be working on a preference section. This is because a lot of modules have an extremely complicated config setup, which would require a massive UI. (For example: an array containing objects containing various types). The amount of work that would go into this, would be unrealistic. I’d rather improve and extend the frontend possibilities.
I do want to work on improving the feedback when the config file is incorrect, though.
Also, I think learning a bit of JSON could never hurt anyone. And with MagicMirror I don’t aim on the absolute beginners. It’s a project for people to learn along the way. One of the things to learn is some basic javascript.

I’d agree that the perefence/configuration page could get quite complicated, but if we design it in the modular extensible way so that module developers could modify and configure it by themselves specifically for their module requirements it might not take a lot of time…
