This is nice! Thank you!

Quick question regarding your note on your github page. Ive only had a mirror for maybe 2 weeks, its running on a pi 3b+. I have a good amount of moduiles, but not all showing all the time and my pi sits around 55-60c .

Would it be better to run the magic mirror software on an ubuntu vm and just use fullpageos or something similar on the pi? Im not sure if that would take most the processing away from the pi or not?

Thanks

@darbos mine runs on a mini itx board so I can pretty much do what I want.

If you want the basic MM then the PI is fine but if you want more you have to think bigger. ;)

I am just curious how much load is actually taken away from the pi if MM is actually running on a vm elsewhere(dell r720). I would think the pi is still gotta do some video processing correct?

I am looking to add some “pages” specifically going to make it so I can tell google to show me my security cams and have all my normal modules fade away and bring the cameras up(12 outdoor). I would actually like to make a couple pages with different information to be able to do that. I love this thing, thank you for sharing your hard work! I see your a hard workin guy out here.

I was lookin at those intel sticks possibly, I have never messed with one yet though. Ill take a look at the board you mentioned. Thanks

btw, its really easy to integrate voice if you use homeassistant, just using the apis / mqtt / remote module. I was looking for a module for a while that would let me create pages instead of having to call each module out with remote, i just happened to stumble on to it today

darbos

those look nice, thanks! i had to write back so quick cause that got me really curious. Ive seen quite a bit of your posts scrollin through here, but I havent seen your mirror, would you mind sharing a peek?

Hi, thanks for your module.
It works perfectly.

I was wondering if you could add a way to “force” a specific language ?
( my mirror language is English and i would love to read the French news )
Is there a way to display more than 1 article at a time ?

Thanks.

mh, you could try to use this:

{
	module: 'MMM-Jnews',
	config: {
		lang: "fr",
		apiKey: "YOUR API KEY", 
		image : true,
		rotateInterval: 25 * 1000 
	}
},
