MMM-MirrorMirrorOnTheWall installation issue
-
@oceank Yea that worked to some extent. When I say show me images it says that something is not supported.
Amazon Photos is not supported on this device. View your photos using the Amazon Photos app or website, or on devices like Fire TV or Echo Show.
When I say Alexa, start magic mirror, it promptly replies : “Hello my Queen, what can I do for you?” so that is working (Although I would like to change that message later)
-
@Radu_Stancu did you follow the guide for google custom search? you have to enable images search for the custom engine.
so the syntax will be “alexa…magic mirror…(then she will say hello my queen etc) and then you say .show me pictures of apples”
-
@oceank I did follow the guide, and put the necessary api keys. I will redo the steps, maybe I missed something.
-
@oceank I redid the steps. Just to be clear, I need to do only the api steps right? not installing whatever they are saying there?
I keep getting the same message after I re-uploaded to lamba with new api keys.
-
@Radu_Stancu exactly just the API steps. when you made the custom search engine did you do :
- Enable Image Search
In your search engine settings, enable “Image search”:
and I think you need 2 different projects at google developers console
- google search (add google custom engine, and make the API key)
- youtube (add the youtube data v3? I think its called, and the make API key)
- Enable Image Search
-
@oceank I can confirm search images is on. I have also added youtube javascript v3 to the api. Are you sure 2 different projects are required?
-
@radu_stancu well I have read that in some forums that it was required. When I had 1 project with 2 different API it didnt work for me so thats why I tryed the other option with 2 seperate projects and API and then it worked for me.
-
@oceank Okay, I`ll try that now. Nothing changed unfortunately…
-
did you check the cloudwatch logs? see what error you get…
-
@oceank I can`t seem to find anything relevant in the logs… I keep getting

and similar for videos.
